Scottish Government to phase out new petrol cars by 2032. 

Eight years before UK government look to do so.

Tumbler? Does google search ... oh god.... :facepalm:

Okay, in semi-seriousness here are my realities and dreams.

Reality
First car I drove was my dad's Reliant K Wagon

His was that pale metallic blue where the paint was blistering and peeling off the hood and roof near the endThe previous ones he owned

Finding an image was darn hard but envision this in the dark red of the time with plastic seat covers.
The upholstery was impeccable when it was finally sold but the drivers side floor was rusted out since dad didn't believe in floor mats - Fred Flintstones emergency braking system
(no linkable photo found)
Before that was the Austin Morris camper van in two tone grey. The front seats were over the motor, so hot hot hot in summer.
The back interior included a fold out gas stove on the swing out back door and wooden sliding bench seats that were cabinets and doubled as a bed when slid out.
My first car was a 99 VW Golf Wolfsberg.

Mine had a HUGE whip antenna for 2m radio added. Made it look like an RC car  :-D
I still miss it. Had to let it go earlier this year since repairs were more than it was worth. Went to an apprentice auto-mechanic who I know will keep her running for years to comeMy new car is a 2017 VW DUNE

Yes, mine is just like the one in the center, including the painted alloy wheels  :-D
I may post a real picture if I remember to take one and upload it

I for one welcome our 18 wheeled overlords.

Also I just learned the roadkill guys (who are kind of my idols in the car world) were at my race. On Saturday. Which was practice day. Which I skipped. And now I'm bummed.
