Everything with a Volvo looks that good. Even parking.

Initially meant for rainy or really wet track, to see the car through the water, it has been extended to conditions where the car is notably slower: pit lane entry and exit, and through corners when harvesting energy for ERS.

For real distance creation, use this instead of the noodle:

Hi David, very nice piece you wrote here. Any word on the electronics and software side ? I saw some time ago a similar company (not in automotive) grind down the chips and eproms layer by layer to expose their internal organization, and the managing software is also probably very difficult to unlock...

Wrenchers know that exposing whatever to brake fluid is not ending well for the whatever. Save the money of the iPhone 7 for better tools, and use a very simple protection:

Phones do not necessarily need to get thinner; this gained space could be used for battery, stronger antenna, better optics...

Small story: coming back from South Italy in a dark blue BX GTI (yep, that existed, google it), around Milan, the STOP IMMEDIATELY YOU FOOL lamp on the dashboard appears... Refusing to test the italian mechanical skills…

I feel for you (there, a star !). Keep trying on the 911, that’s how you form serious good taste for a life time :)
