I don't think it the best thing I've seen however it's not the worst either. Some of the acting is ropey yes. But they make up for it with some good fight scenes. The gun fights are well shot if you can forgive the endless magazines that some people have. There are some continuity errors which pissed me off and a lot of story lines to manage. But otherwise its OK just for the fights and shoot em ups.
It's not gonna win many awards but it does exactly what it says on the tin.

dont forget this is only a ban on selling diesel and petrol cars not a ban on using them (yet!)
whats the average life span of a car? 10-15yrs so if the last diesel car is sold on the last day of 2034 they could still be around for many years after that.
However i do agree with all the posts below that the infrastructure and practicalities for electric cars need massive improvements for it to be a viable alternative for everyone.
whats going to happen to lorrys and buses?
boats and ferrys?
Air planes?
all of this will only increase the demand on our electricity supplies so expect to see investment in low carbon renewable electric sources and nuclear??

I have not seen them in the flesh but from what i have seen they have some good features to be honest.
But i did look at the front with the small porch/ extension bit and did wonder how this would act in a full on frontal blow. It looked like it could act like a parachute.
As for the price well people will pay it but time will tell if it its worth it.

if you pack anything away wet it wil give you problems later on. i was advised not to use my rubber hard cases for my mk1 delks as any moisture on the alarm cannot get out. this came from an friend who repairs all types of alarms he then went on to say that the delkim sensor can swell up when it gets wet and if its not dried out properly they will give you trouble. allways dry out my alarms in the house for a day or two after a session.
however you are allways going to get some not so good ones in a batch and i will be watching this to see if it is a general issue or an few isolated cases
