Re: Dr Rangelove 10/10/2021

Yes, there were around 50 odd cars. I arrived early (first car there), followed by a convoy of Teslas. Tesla owners did seem to dominate the show. But there was a good selection of other EVs too.

I had a nice chat with some fellow EV owners and the weather stayed dry for us. The Tesla drivers seemed to keep themselves to themselves. Most EV drivers were very friendly and happy to chat.

One car I didn't take a photo of was an electric FIAT 500. It was very stylish with the leather seats having the word FIAT stitched on the back. The more you looked at it, the more you realised how much attention to detail FIAT have gone to. Every aspect of the car had been styled to perfection. A far cry from some of the naff FIAT's of the past.

I had a great time. -Like.png-

Were there many curious non EV owners, and did you get a ride in a Tesla in ludicrous mode? -Fever.png-

Re: Dr Rangelove 10/10/2021

No and No. Very few none EV owners and No, to the ride. They had their screens with a car racing game and kids were using the steering wheel to steer the cars in the game. The Tesla front wheels were turning as the kids played. I wouldn't have thought that was good for the car (turning the wheels back and forth) while the car was stationary. -Confused.png-

Ludicrous denied, that’s a shame -Disappointment.png-
That DeLorean looks immaculate, I bet it had just returned from the future -Big grin.png-
There are so many new EV models coming out I can’t keep track of them all now, that Ioniq looks strikingly familiar though -Like.png-

The DeLorean looked immaculate. One members commented it was nice to see a DeLorean in its orginal condition that hadn't been altered to look like the one in Back to the Future. It still looks a modern car after all these years. -Big grin.png-
