Re: Would you have an electric car if you had the money for a new car and were in the market for one?
Yep. Work for VWFS so have gone Audi Q4 for my next car. Took one home the other night and it was great. 280 miles off a charge, mileage was realistic estimate over a 27 mile commute each way. I can live with 280 miles range off a charge easily.

Re: What bike are you thinking of buying next ? What's the shortlist ?
I have a Monster 821 which ticks a lot of boxes for me ( hence why I bought it obviously!) but I must admit I do find myself perusing RE Interceptors quite a bit these days. I think I’d quite like one of those for more sedate bimbles.

Re: Tamiya Grasshopper, new RC car day.... Build thread.
Just tried a couple of other photos. Same 90 degree change when uploading. Well that’s me not bothering with any photos then! Odd. First forum I’ve used where that happens.

Re: Tamiya Grasshopper, new RC car day.... Build thread.
Does the Grasshopper still come with a 380 motor or is it now a 540? I had in one the 80’s and it had the 380 motor. It was so slow compared to mates Hornets it was untrue! Moved to a Hotshot.
