In related news the Fiat 500 has been killed off due the same cyber vulnerabilities.. but don’t despair! Fiat is now going to put a petrol engine in the 500e which is typical leftfield Italian thinking 👌😎
Cheers,

Okay, so as we no longer need to comply with EU legislation, Porsche is going to continue selling the Coxster in the UK..

Unfortunately, in related news, the LC500 and RC-F have both been canned over cyber security concerns... sorry @Matty
Cheers,

Ian

When Marty is burbling by in a FUCKING BLACKED OUT LEXUS BATMOBILE then he won’t care who normally buys them 😎

Also, I bet heel and toeing is easily done in beige brogues.

Seem like the EV cars will be the cooking models and the ICE will be reserved for the high end performance cayman and boxter.

I expect they are confident that this is the way eu legislation will go. I havent watched the latest Harrys garage, so unsure if this is covered by him.
