Elon claiming that a car that does jet-powered kickflips will be “an actual car that’s on the road” is laughable the moment you even think about what that means. Get ahead of the crowd and add it to the list of #ShitElonSays that are straight-up lies.
Elon fans are the dumbest motherfuckers out there.
Now that I have it running well again, I took the MG TD to Wednesday night’s MG club meeting and was rewarded with a good sunset picture.

With the MG TD’s carburetor problem now fixed, I think I finally have banished the series of woes that kept it grounded for much of this summer. And tonight was a warm, splendid autumn evening for a sunset shakedown cruise to see if the repair would hold.

Maybe someone who should have known better at his age , but clearly liked his #cars and #driving fast, other than one driving ban in early middle age had 0 convictions so had quite likely had been getting away with a heavy right foot for years - until the one day he pushed it too far in the #weather of #Wales and paid a heavy price.
Lucky not to get immediate #prison (due to previous good character, and early guilty plea) he is also now carer for his wife who was permanently disabled in the #collision and it appears their #FamilyBusiness they both worked on is on the way out (its making large losses since the #RTC)
@vwdasher MG TF, 1953-55. MGB, 1962-1980. My B is a later one, 1976, but for the most part a B is a B.
In between, the MGA! AS pretty a car as was ever made. I saw a nice one Saturday morning, too.
P.S. I’ll entertain guesses as to what the car behind the MGA is.

@vwdasher Hard to believe the MGB came along just seven years after the TF. Bs feel decades newer.
This one just placed third in class at the big MG International meet in August. I took advantage of the opportunity to sit in it and confirm that a TF’s footbox is too tight for my feet. My bank account is safer for the knowledge.

I stopped by a local cars and coffee Saturday morning. There was a great assortment of cars there. However, as coincidence would have it, the FUN MG ended up parked next to a familiar MG TF from our local MG club.

No, I never had a clue this existed either!

On the face of it this new #Citroën #2CV doesn't look too bad - but I'm wondering if its surprisingly low price is conditional on #Stellantis harvesting data from its users via constant online connectivity (and also using this to rush the vehicle to market by treating the first buyers as unpaid beta testers) - and if there will be an aftermarket for service parts in 5-10 years time when the #cars drop out of the main dealer servicing network?

🚨ADORABLE CAR ALERT 🚨
2003 Chevrolet Tracker. 52,000 miles. Current bid: US$9,500.

British #CarAccessories company #Carnoisseur from #Dunstable #Luton #England, established 1979, uploaded its sales catalogues from 1982 to 2013 to the #InternetArchive - a snapshot of #motoring #history in the #UK
NB: some catalogues contain imagery considered sexist nowadays - British society became less prudish over the years, but not in the most inclusive way (not as if objectifying women was necessary to sell alloy wheels, but this did alas become part of #CarCulture especially in 90s and 00s)
The company still exists today, but in a more downsized form (insurers are more ruthless about loading premiums for modified cars or refusing cover altogether, making this a less popular hobby

Alas, unless there is strong and enforced #regulation , it would be even *easier* to do this for #EVs than #petrol / #diesel #vehicles
In most (all?) countries, drivers of petrol/diesel #cars are used to seeing a "totem sign" (apologies if that is not PC term, I don't know of better ones) which shows the price of #fuel in big numbers for all to see. You can also walk round the pumps and check individual price displays.
Whereas EV chargers do not show *any* price info on the screen until the driver has put in their card/ID and possibly committed to charging their vehicle (I've checked the screens of several in motorway service stations and supermarket car parks) and there isn't any totem sign either, so every driver could already be getting individual pricing..
