tbourner Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 This is now my dream car, at least for the next few months! Think EV tech has come on quite a lot though. I just need a garage . http://www.teslamotors.com/sites/default/files/model-s-on-road_1024x768_g.jpg http://www.teslamotors.com/sites/default/files/model-s-signature-red_1024x768_e.jpg http://www.teslamotors.com/sites/default/files/model-s-alpha-black_1024x768_i.jpg http://www.teslamotors.com/en_GB/models Looks like it's around $85k, coming out in UK in 2013 but no prices yet.

nige-rz Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Probably not what you want to hear, but it reminds me of a Mazda 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Does it!! Actually I like the Mazda 6, maybe that's why. It's definitely the tech more than the styling I like though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony tt Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 There's a bit of a Maserati look about it I think. Not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 I like the fact that with the App on your phone you can turn on the air con or heater 10 mins before getting in! Better still it should learn your habits and set the right temperature every day automatically! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige-rz Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 It's a nice car, but, have a cup of tea, be a sensible man, and go find yourself a brochure for a new GTR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 It's like a Mazda has mated with a Jag, but I like it. The picture of it in black on the move looks very classy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh if I could afford one of these I'd have a proper car as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted March 10, 2012 Author Share Posted March 10, 2012 I quite like the Vauxhall EV as well: http://www.vauxhall-ampera.co.uk/index.php/eng/home As a cheap alternative. Think if I go electric I'd have to go fully electric though, the benefits of removing the engine seem quite big - although I assume the Ampera engine will be extremely reliable, not having to do any 'work'. Does it run at the same revs constantly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky49 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Looks a bit Jaggy to me or something Lexus would do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
