        Well done NG! It's a Tesla Model S, at an all electric car event at my work place. I also got to drive the new BMW i3 which was like a very quiet version of my Mini, a Nissan leaf (terribly boring) and a Mitsubishi Outlander (lacking in boot space due to the batteries).

        The Tesla is the fastest 0-60 car I've ever had a go in, 4.7 secs - scary and eerily quiet.

          Quiet cars take a bit of getting used to don't they? It's even weirder with bikes that don't have a growl. There's a race during TT here called 'Zero' (all electric) and it's just not the same! :)

            I didn't like the electric racing cars. Little noise, little atmosphere :sad:

                  I know you will all say boring, but....if I won some money, I would definitely buy a Range Rover. I like the older shape though (big window version).
                  I would have another cooler car too though ;) Maybe that 358 spider :blue thumb:
