Well we could argue about the speed thinggy Fractelle, for the
Tesla is not exactly slow.

The problem with bikes is not bikes, but other motorists who are
not paying attention, as the hospital records show. So in a prang,
I'd rather be in a Tesla, then on a bike.

Where I live, there is little traffic to speak of, you have more
chance of hitting a mob of sheep or cattle on the roads.

Plugging it in is a problem? At 1c per km I'd rather do that
then fill it up, all with electricity that is now wasted on
baseload power overnight, being produced wether we use it or
not.

Dear Yabby,

In a word - "WOW!"

You up for a race?

Well, this old two-wheel nut wouldn't mind taking that Bat-sewingmachine for a blast through some hills, to my eye it looks like it could do well. All my dream vehicles are definitely not eco-friendly, so far. That's opened my eyes though, I'll have to start looking around more.

Two wheels?

Greedy, greedy greedy.

Make this one electric. Then I'll be impressed.

(FTR, I'm with Yabby. I want a Tesla roadster).

Well, I've just found my other "Dream Machine."

It featured at the Geneva 2009 wild cars expo.
Frazer-Nash Namir by Giugiaro.

Frazer Nash today are developing hybrid drive
systems. The British Company has collaborated with
Italdesign Giugiaro and created a concept called -
Namir.

Check it out. "The system is claimed to give the
Namir a top speed of 187 mph, 0-62 mph acceleration in
3.5 seconds while still managing 91.7 mpg (US).
Not too shabby."
