If I had a car...

...I'd want it to be <a href="http://edition.cnn.com/2007/TECH/11/20/green.hummers/index.html">one of these</a> - a classic car reworked as an eco-friendly biodeisel monster. 100 miles to the gallon??!!

Except I'd have it retrofitted with trolley poles.

What are trolley poles?

Tommy wants an electric car, I guess, affixed to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trolley_pole">trolley poles</a>.

The Dutch have a <a href="http://www.autoblog.nl/archive/2007/11/24/koenigsegg-ccxr-special-edition-met-1018pk">car</a> for you, pamsterdam.
Posted by pamsterdam on 2007-11-27 04:05:03 +0000
tgl - you read Dutch! I'm very impressed.

The car itself (Koenigsegg) is Swedish, though, so perhaps I can suggest a <a href="http://www.pal-v.com/">Dutch design</a>?

<img src="http://www.pal-v.com/images/PALV_6.jpg"><src>

<i>"The PAL-V is a three-wheeled gyrocopter concept whose blades fold up onto its roof, and when it's time to fly, its back end morphs into a U-shaped tail with a prop on the back and a gyrocopter blade up top."</i>

Nuts, huh?

We are all Dutch!

No, I don't read Dutch. I saw the link from a different website. Probably http://boingboing.net
Find me on github.
