My immediate reaction was - "Yay". Dunno why.

Got to say I quite fancy a Tesla. The interior looks quite classy for a yank car.

And we still don't know what to do with atomic waste, not to mention atomic accidents. I ask myself how many cancers have been caused by radioactive emissions and the earlier atmospheric atomic tests. Then there is the so-called spent uranium now used in amor piercing munitions. Well I suppose that is one way of getting rid of atomic power station waste, shoot it at people you don't like.

Not surprised Howard. As a sailor you are familiar with the concept of going with the tide rather than trying to batter your way into it.

I'm pretty sure now that a Tesla model 3 will be our next household car.

Back on topic with a plot twist: I thought that I would phone the Paris importer, Beaumont Automobiles, because they have a new P4 with a co2 list of 164 and my Carte Grise application is held up because they claim 217. Any way, the chap I spoke with asked if I had the 110 model, which I do and then explained that the reason my tax was so high is because I had had the discount, i.e. the £8000 worth of freebies from Morgan. I think that I am losing my mind. If anyone cares to check their site, the P4 is the one with led headlights.
