Gives me a thought. If an electric car had, KERS, alternator, solar pannels, maybe some wind turbines all generating power. You could charge it once and see it go forever. I know next to nothing about the subject, but it makes sense to me. It might not go forever, but like the plane, could it go once around the world. If so, that'd be a pretty amazing car.

And be from Huddersfield, even if he has a french name.

The Brits made one good looking air craft, and that was back in 1938.

:yikes:

It might of been the most advanced aircraft in the world at the time and only had a few bugs to iron out but it was ugly
