    Lovely car, as said looks just like the concept which is great but I will really miss the "old school feel to cars when they're all hybrids and electrics with autos or one gear.. That's why the e36 ain't goin nowhere

    Would love a spin in one to experience the torque from the electric motor

    My brother in law got a go in a tesla model S there the other week, he said the torque is insane and the silence is bizarre!

    Yep think so, these are the only pics of it that he took of it, said the best thing about the car was you could remotely activate the horn from an app on your phone :tounge:

    I cant forgive the size of that screen in the Tesla though, It looks entirely like an after thought. didnt think it could say it but its too big.

    Agreed looks tacky far too big just looks like a giant android phone stuck to the dash speedo wouldn't be my cup of tea either
