Renault & Geely say FU EV with NEW ENGINE FACTORY in UK!

If society could dispell the speed freak thing and everone had very small petrol cars that did say 50mph and 300 mpg then the greenies would be really shafted! lol!

@mrghoster: I have done it - in my head...... Down scale the fuel economy record "cars" and their motors (or types there of) and upscale their frames (long sling shot dragster type chassis), and it's easily doable. https://hondanews.eu/eu/lv/car....s/media/pressrelease ---- https://www.drive.com.au/carad....vice/this-humble-ute ------- https://pratt.duke.edu/about/n....ews/duke-students-br ------- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_Eco-marathon ------- https://www.shell.us/sustainab....ility/shell-eco-mara

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: Thank god they didn't do the tesat on Guinness, that would be expensive, at least the car wouldn't remember the journey! lol!

The DUKE Vibrator PENIS shaped thing isn't really convenient to do the shopping with or pulling a caravan on holiday! lol!

In the UK the goal isn't fuel or travel efficiency, they in realit want us all prisoners on our own homes or village like getto's on the basis they think they can control us better? I think the psycho's are gonna find they are VERY WRPONG with some of the talk I've been hearing in the backlash movement's! all you need in a tech age threatening your vehicle usage is a slip on cardboard license plate! lol!

I Hyper mile my Royal Enfield Meteor 350 from 100 MPG to 135 MPG more or less on tick over speed and getting into 5 gear ASAP. the nice thing is even in 5 gear io can still plod along in a 20 MPH zone at 1500 rev's or I can use the Motorway in 5 gear at 75 MPH!

@mrghoster: Royal Enfield's are nice bike.... the BUM or british universal motorcycle, is actually a brilliant people friendly / man machine interface.... easy to get on and off and easy to ride and comfortable..... they are SANE - where as the boy racer plastic head down arse up, rocket ships are not very practical.....

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: Nicely said mate, I love my RE it's ther best bike I've ever owned, it was cheap as well and mostly METAL not plastic. I've been riding since 1972 and always like my Honda's, but since my Honda dealer was shafted by honda and he went over to RE, Keyway and some other Ghinese makes I bought the RE and I have a 125 dirt cheap Chinky cruiser as well that cost me 2k new on the road, but my Enfield is my pride and joy.

@mrghoster: Just for a personal mode of transport the 350 cc is a very nice size motor, it's a light bike, plenty of poke, a good go everywhere bike, nice flat seat, simple, you know... plust you can take them up goat tracks along the sides of mountains as well as thread them through traffic and they look nice.... They are a good looking motorcyle.... is it a long stroke, a square bore or a short stroke motor.... ?

@Life_N_Times_of_Shane_T_Hanson: Multi cylinder pocket rocket markets are now dying on thier feet, The Single cyliner midrange unit's are the mew kid in town around 340cc to 400cc it seems. I used to have a lot of 250cc's in the 70's then the law was changes and getting a 250 in the uk unless it is a classic is impossible task. The Metoer has only one cylinder, 2 valves and fuel injection that means when you shut thr throttle the fuel STOPS flowing, how efficient is that, All servicing I can do for myself now with a 6k period ans occasional tweaks beibng the Service Period. Insurance is pocket money as well. As only I can ride one bike at a time and my age I can insure both bikes fully comp for 12 months at less than a Hundred Bucks for the year. If I were to change my bike it would be another RE replacemnt, but I don't see the need in the near future at all.
