You should. The 2nd gen of 900 was probably the worst car Saab made so if you dealt with that, anything else will be fine!

I’d love to see how narrow they can make them, whilst still being able to claim that they’ve retained them.

I remember my grandad saying this years ago. He said you can pay your steelworkers, coal miners, teachers (state employees) anything you like because you’ll get it back in VAT and a busy economy. The more you pay them, the more they spend.

I had a Volvo V70 for less than 6 months. As I was driving it home I was thinking “yeah, this isn’t a keeper”.
Also, an Alfa Romeo 146Ti for about the same amount of time. It was fabulous the 3 times I drove it, but it cost me a fortune and I was grateful when the scrap man said he’d collect it.

“heavy electic machines that go from 0-20 in secs with no pedaling” aren’t e-bikes. That’s a motorbike you’re describing. The regulations make this clear.

E-bikes are not motorbikes. Anybody arguing that either doesn’t know what they’re talking about or is arguing in bad faith.
You also claim that e-bikes are “totally unregulated”, which is hyperbole at best and outright lying at worst

Just trying to understand what you think is wrong with the regulations. If you can’t articulate that, then that’s fine, but it’s not a me problem.

I’ve read the article. It talks, over multiple paragraphs, of the regulations to which e-bikes are subject.
What regulations do you think are missing? Or is it the content of the regulations you disagree with?

Oh I wish I had your view of humanity. Studies show that cyclists and drivers go through red lights at about the same proportion. Neither should do it, but it’s not an issue particular to cyclists.
