Are Electric cars a viable alternative.

Don`t know if they are spoofs or not but there are a few vids on the tube announcing that a couple of the big manufacturors are stopping EV production due to poor sales, one thing that would reduce this polution B/S would be to stop this bloody stupid horsepower race, make something thats economical, reliable and cheap for a change and to me it would sell itself and feck the politicians and their distorted aims.

Watched a vid earlier that was saying Elon Musk was going into partnership with the German government to produce an electric tank. Prototypes have already been built and tested. the electric motor is powered by a diesel generator, Apparently this will make the tank faster and lighter thus giving it more manoeuvrability on the battlefield.

They are not great mate got engine problems along many others, but if you get a new one keep for 2 years and get shot you may get away with it

Different concept to electric cars, There are no batteries, The diesel generator powers the tanks electrics, so they can do away with a shit load of weight compared to a normal tank,

Car Auction houses are full of land rovers and range rovers at the minute, It would appear that the bottom has dropped out of the market or else the finance companies are repossessing loads.

Yup get a decent deal on a Range Rover, hopefully one that’s done over 50,000 would of had all the problems done. Cheap ole luxury bus. Londoners can’t get them insured
