Oxygen, I see breathing tax on the horizon.....lol...The government, whatever one, could not just do away with petrol cars, as at least 80% of the price of a gallon you see at the pumps is made up of various taxes. What would they substitute that with? An amperage or voltage charge?![]()

I don't agree with that.The thing is the next generation will have no interest in our sort of cars. In a decade solid state batteries will allow a £60-75k two seater to do 0-60 in 2.5s, have a range of 400 miles and hardly need servicing - our stuff will be viewed as archaic.

In the future?Is there any other type?

It might be but only by a small number of people just like now where only a few old blokes take any interest in 'ancient' cars. Good thread revival BTW.I don't agree with that.
The old kit that sounds good, looks great and feels real and characterful will (or should) be revered.
On the plus side, the demographic is likely to come out of present circumstances pretty well (I'm generalising).It might be but only by a small number of people just like now where only a few old blokes take any interest in 'ancient' cars. Good thread revival BTW.
That's true! Mind lithium-ion batteries are wet. Interestingly Tesla is sticking with 'improved' lithium ion batteries and some others have pushed back solid state forecasts so we could be stuck with old tech for a while.Well that would be 'Will there be any other type?', surely?
