Does Bathurst last year count? Because it’s 6 in a row for Giz in that case.

Have a squiz at this:

Eh. They had a non-existent Ford racing a couple years back.

You carry your vinyl in an IKEA Kallax. I know from experience you can stick one on the roof of a car and drive around with it.

Depends on the state. Tasmania is pretty much all hydro, the ACT is fully renewable (that’s because it’s tiny and buys most of its power from outside the state), South Australia is more than half renewable:

If you drive a plug-in hybrid you get to pay both - there’s a 2c/km tax on plug-in hybrids too.

That is the rationale, but considering the EV fleet, it’s a stupid idea. It dissuades people from buying them and with the numbers of them on the road it will generate approximately fuck-all revenue anyway. At the moment there are about 6000 EVs on the road in Victoria, so if they all drive 15K km a year, the state…

$1000 off the new car taxes reduces the drive-away price to $44K. That’s a best-case scenario if you’re in one of the three states that offers EV incentives - as in it’s the most generous incentive available for a car of that price. You get bigger reductions off more expensive EVs, because it’s a percentage of the…

And you can pick one of them up here (SR+) for just $73.5k out the door.

Try living in Australia. The cheapest EV on the market is an MG SUV with just a tad less WLTP range than the LEAF. It’s $44K AUD, but on the upside, the government incentives are up to nearly $1000, depending on which state you’re in!

In Antipodean news, Giz had quite a weekend. Spoilers after the highlights:

I’ve used these (I’ve got three of them in my car right now, which is massive overkill, but they were cheap at the time I bought them):

Petrol.

The Zonda R was really cool because it was the acme of these types of vehicles (hyper-limited, insanely expensive cost-no-object track-focussed cars with all of their craftsmanship on display and crazy performance).

It’s a classic recipe.

They are now your questions to ponder. Meanwhile...

Hey, if the Odyssey looked like this I would be pretty stoked.

I doubt Honda will sell them anywhere...
