40 passengers, 2,7 tons of cargo at 65 mph average in one of the hottest place in the world, all of this with 188 hp and on dirt roads. Sorry, but it does not seem feasible.

Paradis perdus is a cover of a 1973 song by Christophe, lyrics by Jean-Michel Jarre.

Yes, they are in french. Pur-sang.

Wait, what ?

Lando Norris was mugged from his watch in Wembley after the Euro 2020 final. A probably much more unpleasant experience than Charles’s (who didn’t notice a thing, or so it seems).

LeClerc, maybe. But Leclerc ? Don’t think so.

The relatively heavy doors are also basically pinned shut at cruising altitude by the difference in air pressure between the cabin and the outside.

Isn’t it a problem to run on the same tracks the local shuttles that stop everywhere and high speed trains that go long distance without a break ?

The map showing the various power standards is a little disingenuous, since it’s not really a practical issue.

Yes. But in Germany, because, well, germans. Car drivers will actively try to block you when you try to filter there ...

Cars with automatic choke that flood the engine when at high elevation. Fuck automatic chokes.

A tactical situation, it’s like a regular situation but someone has a gun ?

A number of Seat cars (Altea, Toledo...) had their wipers tucked in the A pillars.
