Cars you’ve smoked ?

[decrep]

I try not to let my youthful exuberance overtake my better judgement too often though...

It's bloody hard though!
Even at 81.

They’re not too keen when a Berlingo shows them the way either

Is somebody on the magic mushrooms.

Indeed! One of the few cars that would achieve it - 650hp 4wd EV (not European!) and that should be enough for you to guess! It is going back to the dealer later this morning so it will be decision time

So, not a Lucid Air Saphire then, or if it is, it needs a tune up, half the hp is missing ....

So, don't leave me guessing, what are you looking at buying?

Hyundai Ioniq 5N and yes - they also seem to have issues with failing ICCUs similar to the early 3 phase LR MG4s. I know an Xpower is a lot cheaper and incredible value for money in comparison but when you realise exactly what the N division of Hyundai have done to make the car work it is also VFM (compared to a Taycan).

Thinking of leasing one this time whereas I have always cash purchased previously.

Is that the one that can simulate the ICE manual with exhaust note and paddle shifter?

T1 Terry

That's the one, but why would you want simulated paddle shifters?

 

[T1 Terry]

There are those who just want something different I guess But it does the whole exhaust cackle between the gear and when you back off for regen .... yeah .... well .... still no idea
Apparently it is slower over the 1/4 mile if you paddle shift rather than just letting it do what it should be doing .... again, why????

Not sure wether the paddle shift, actually does anything, acceleration wise. Think it's just simulating vroom vroom, noises, and gear changes.
Good be wrong, though.

The whole concept, or the Vroom Vroom noises
