The Lemon Fool

Okay, that's got your attention I suppose. I found myself behind one of these on a small-town roundabout this morning.



All electric. Designed and styled by the people who tweak expensive Mercs. 98 bhp, 95 mph, maximum range of 78 miles. Yours for forty two grand. Forty seven if it's in euros.

Never mind that they're only making fifty of them, and they've probably sold out by now. Would you really want to be nudging the ton in one of these?

No, nor did the lady at the wheel this morning, by the look of it. The lights turned green, and she was off with all the surging acceleration that her 0-62 time of 10.9 seconds would permit. Sometimes I think I'm in the wrong job.

I suppose with a maximum range of 78 miles its only intendded for local runs etc - which ratyher questions why it needs to be able to do 95mph...
70 owuld be more than sufficient on the whole

eg I cokuldnt get to Bristol and back in that combined range (without topping up in Bristol anyway). So Im hardly going to be on a motorway with it really. (appreciating of cours that I may not be overly typcial... maybe if I lived by a MWay junction and my BBF was 35 mailes away just off another MWay junction?)

I guess they can find 50 mugs

A sexy? BMW

It was only quite recently that I encountered the term "bonnet bra", but that's taking things to a literal extreme. The horizontal stripes are errm, bold.

As my old mum used to say: "Mark my words, she'll regret that when she's older."

And it's just so ugly. Pathetic.

We have larger wheel barrows on our building sites

AiY

Was this the driver?

I hope that's a Photoshop job. I mean, she doesn't appear to be wearing a seatbelt.

Shocking, shocking. We can only hope that her airbags are in working order.

Here's an attractive Mini - with a fitting number plate. It's RHD so probably in the UK somewhere.
