I think next year is pretty open between Max, Lando, Oscar, Charles & George, possibly Fernando too. The engine may make a big difference. If the Merc engine and McLaren chassis are top, I'd put Lando 60/40 to take another, vs Oscar.

I think it's an Avro 504K en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avro_504 - can't see any other British WW1 biplanes with rotary engines which have three sets of inter-wing struts.

The blue and yellow "Citroen" van has undersized wheels, I think it's this Chinese replica citroenvie.com/chinese-repr... - available as a trailer, or for more money as a short-range, low speed EV.
Chinese Reproduction of an H Van - Citroënvie!
With Halloween coming up in few days we felt that posting a tricked-out Citroën H Van reproduction food trailer being offered for sale in China would be appropriate.

The 'vaguely a hatchback' first car is a Daewoo Tico, a license-built 3rd gen Suzuki Alto kei car, but with an 800cc engine.

Maybe I picked a bad episode; but given the case of the driver double the alcohol limit being egged on to high speed in a 40 limit and the passenger not wearing a seatbelt and dying, it's tricky to find much to learn from tbh.

The weird thing is that psychotic people accurately anticipated many aspects of our surveillance state several decades in advance. Our world has caught up to them.

I hired a Note e-Power in 2019 in Japan, and was left wondering why this system wasn't in more vehicles, in more markets. Another example of Nissan squandering their advantage, leading to their recent dire straits.

With the 240V standard mains outlets here in the UK, wall-socket charging is a lot more viable.

This is off the top of my head.
These sorts of inefficiencies happen on quite literally a daily basis. Everybody in the system knows this. Everyone.
Yet what is the government’s diagnosis?
“Juries. They are the problem. Get rid of juries.”
It is absolutely mind-boggling.
