If the hail storm had written off the Octavia instead of the Silvia I might have replaced it with a Tesla instead of getting a Frontline style of MGB. But to replace an open top convertible sports car you need another convertible and apart from the RBW MGB that is more money than a Frontline and probably never going to be released in Australia I don't know of any electric convertible sports cars on the market yet.

A friend made an interesting comment today. He was thinking of a Tesla but three of his neighbours have them an have been making comments about how they are saving the planet which has been getting up his nose seeing they used to drive large cars and not care less about the environment before.

I will be interested to see how hydrogen goes, there are 20 cars in my town owned by the local government as a trial.
