I don’t think dozen is a specifically imperial unit of measure though is it.

Well has England ever used imperial units in general? I just assumed they had always been metric so hearing that speed/distance was in miles was a WTF moment. I remember hearing it on old Top Gear and just thought stupidly they were talking about miles per hour because it was shorter than kilometers per hour, it

Ok that’s pretty funny. Let me rephrase anyone driving a car the own isn’t going to launch every single time. That’s the high end sports car of the rental car joke, drive it like you stole it.

LOL fair enough.  I have to admit though I have never been able to understand why England where EVERYTHING else is metric, uses miles for speed and distance.

Yeah I legit thought it would be in the HIGH 6 figures, they are apparently quite reasonable for a Mille Migla eligible vehicle. And they are gorgeous.

LOL these kids will never understand when cars didn’t come standard with damn near everything.

Laughs in Brit as I drive 45 miles per hour in a metric country.

Wow can you really be this dumb. literally NO ONE on Earth is going to do launch control launches from EVERY stoplight.

Something like that, yeah I couldn’t remember the exact term and it may vary by insurer. That kind of insurance is the only way to get a car like this insured. Though I just looked them up they aren’t that crazy expensive. I found a clean Mille Migla eligable 41k mile clean 1951 model for $135k. and a 49 for just a

On that we can agree, and I made a similar point about immigration reform. It’s something that does need to happen, but when have the government stepped in and EVER made anything simpler and faster lol.

It’s a big task sure, but not impossible. There are multiple companies that have this data there are 4 right now on American Digital Cartography that you can access, I assume for a price. You parse those against each other for errors or discrepancies, something like AI would in fact work pretty well for this task,

This, you go after the insurance company not the person. That said, in a car like this, assuming they have it in Europe, the driver/owner of that Jag 100% has insured value, I think that’s the right term, on the car.  With those type of policies you set what the value is and they insure, with payments to match, that

Says someone who has never driven one, though neither have I.  But by all accounts, you can def tell where the money went.

That’s strange, I don’t think in the 30+ years I have lived where that have changed the speed limits on like ANY roads.

One does not simply wrap a Rolls Royce away with you pleb. lol

Agreed, but I think it’s also because they will likely easily turn you away of you want some truly god awful spec, at least when you are buying new. Also apparently not

that’s why you combine the data from multiple services, then parse the data to find discrepancies between the various mapping services, GPS, state DOT’s and the federal government, the data is there. I did get hit my that difference heading to Louisiana, got on an interstate, no speed limit sign, so I go ok were in

if you combined the data from Google, Apple, Waze, and other GPS companies, then parsed them maybe with AI to check for conflicts it should be fairly simple. We work with a company that does AI and OCR comparisons for legal documents, for real estate, and then passes conflict to actual people.  They currently index

You are acting like determining the limits on a given road is hard, it’s really not, heck I would bet you could give me any address in the US and I could correctly guess the speed limit 75% of the time. Now the REST of the program yeah that’s going to be hard. Besides that Google, Apple, other GPS services already

Don’t know, maybe farmed quartz costs more per unit than mined.  I would think since you are creating it in a lab that you could essentially make each crystal “perfect” which I would assume would perform better in a semiconductor.
