That’s great information - thanks for taking the time to reply. I learned something.

WHAT HAPPENED to the Japanese production ethic that powered their recovery from WWII through to the 80's and 90's? When reliability was a byword for their auto and other industries?

I love Aston Martin, but in this case I prefer the Volvo P1800 - apart from the grille.

All MANUFACTURED in the US and Mexico, except one in Ontario and one in Sweden.

HAVEN’T YOU heard about the albino alligator people living in the Vegas sewer system?

ALL OF THIS leads me to wonder whether the original death by police car was an accident or not.

Same - as an Australian I remember driving from Vegas back to LA once and it started snowing. Luckily I’d done the convertible thing previously so I was in a sedan.

It’s perfect for a Cyberman to carry his Cybermat.
And if you don’t know old school Doctor Who - I’m sorry.

IT LOOKS and behaves like a car designed only for some dated sci-fi TV show. Like Johnny Cab from Total Recall. Or the Solar Car from the TV version of Logan’s Run.

So you call the Ground Floor the First Floor?

THE INTERIOR is terrible, like a Sith Lord’s cockpit. But the exterior looks incredible. Unlike the Tesla Pickup, there’s genuine design gone into the flat planes, and you can see the heritage from the current GT-R.

IT’S FUNNY, when you spend decades hollowing out the middle class and ensuring wages continue lagging behind inflation - you find there are less customers for your wares.

I know you feel my pain

I actually rewatched that movie because of your reference.

YOU’RE RIGHT about soccer and beer festivals.

Budgie smugglers with socks and sandals 

What about the YangWang U8 Premium Edition Electric SUV?
It’s like a wannabe new Defender slept with a cheap men’s fragrance bottle.

THEY WERE originally going to call it the Honda 4Play

JEEZ... the public would be safer with an ED-209 than the cops they currently have to deal with.

TWO THINGS Tesla can do to ensure the Cyber Trucks are profitable:
1. Use them to smuggle industrial quantities of cocaine a-la John Delorean
2. Add a cologne holder to the dash that holds a bottle of Elon’s Musk No.69. ‘30% of the time it starts every time’.
