Funny to see that Pistonheads do not have this story covered from what i can tell.

I think the article title is misleading somewhat. He doesn’t deride the cars in fact he is positively impressed, he merely states that they’re not practical for the UK.

Fucking set it to 55 and stop holding everyone up.  

That isn’t very nice. Maybe it is the color. I mean, it shits all over my 2002 Volvo v40 wagon’s beige interior, but...

A few of the lines now run 24 hr to offer a service North, East, South and West. Buses are 24 hr.
