  1. You're right, things are often not what they seem, you could be mistaken for an intelligent open-minded person, once you post, that myth disappears entirely.
  2. Which JB, there are two. My initials are actually JBC.
  3. Did you watch the video about the tear down of a BYD Seal? Disruptively high quality and low price was the verdict. BYD have not long been in Europe, they are nimble and not afraid to adjust pricing. I think they will do pretty well, they are a high quality product.
  4. I don't like people who lack manners or integrity, you have neither.
  5. You specifically asked for that video, someone spent a lot of time researching & finding it for you, and this is the best you can do?
  6. Come on, don't be a hypocrite, you're better than that. Tell us what you think about that video?
  7. Pish & Tosh Hydrogen cars in any format are 4 or 5 times more expensive per kilometer than EV’s. EV’s will always be the premium product.
  8. Udorn Medical Group if they are in Chiang Mai, they only do Mammograms, CT, MRI, Ultrasound & X-Ray. No other medical services provided. No doctors consultations, nada,
  9. The ones you see built into the ceiling usually have a large grill at the back where air is sucked in, often near the door to your room, and they chill the air and throw it out the front to cool the room. Because they are enclosed like this, they may never have been cleaned which would make them very inefficient, you could try cleaning it. The other thing to watch out for is what rate you are paying for electricity. It is illegal for any owner of 5 or more properties to charge more than the PEA/MEA rate and therefore make profit. If they are doing this then you have a problem, because if you complain they will probably cancel your lease.
  10. It was posted here, I think under the news section as it's own topic by one of journos here.
  11. That vehicle exploding was a movie stunt scene. Sterzel (sepentza) has no credibility and has had many of his facts overturned as fake. Don't believe YouTube! There was no fire, that was an air conditioning system leak due to a short circuit, what you could see was white fumes, at no point did anything catch fire and it happened in the part of the car shared with ordinary ICE vehicles. Yes, the footage in that video is fake. The statistics are clear, EV's are between 13 and 140 times less likely to catch fire than an ICE. Do electric cars pose a greater fire risk than petrol or diesel vehicles? | Automotive industry | The Guardian
  12. was it JP Morgan? It was one of the big American financial firms who paid experts to rip a BYD Seal apart, and then they informed German manufacturers that they were in trouble, big trouble, because the Chinese car was incredibly well-made and very high-quality.
  13. you’re absolutely right, there is a world of difference
  14. And long may they continue disrupting the Legacy ICE market. Giving consumers a choice of quality new energy vehicles
  15. It is so easy to fix the agricultural burning. Any field burning will be identified by satellite and no growing on that field will be permitted that year. The army will destroy any crops grown in contravention of that order.
  16. We had a hot summer and in a traffic jam I had fuel starvation, I never had overheating problems. Cylinder lock on the key switch steering column broke too. My stag had the usual head gasket problems. Easily fixed with a skim, new gasket and most important of all use the correct antifreeze to stop electrolytic action. I did break the diff on mine. Talking of V8 muscle cars, I migrated to Rolls Royces in my 30’s, really fast off the line and the Bentley Turbo’s after the line too.
  17. I think mine was 73 too, it was badged JensenSP and had the fluted bonnet. Now you mention it, someone told me it had a 4 barrel carb, but I can’t swear to it, I didn’t open the bonnet much and didn’t know anything about yank engines. I remember it was a bitch in hot traffic jams. I was in my early 20’s and dealing in cars at the time. I bought it with 36,000 miles on it, repainted it and trebled my money on it after driving it 9 months. I did have a few minor problems with it but my cousin was parts manager for Jensen at the time and shipped them FOC to me. I took it back in part-exchange a couple of years later and was really disappointed how it had deteriorated. The cherry red leather was shot and the silver bonnet had yellowed on the flutes. I really enjoyed owning that car.
  18. Sone of us migrate to faster, more comfortable, quieter cars And some drive Celerios.
  19. In the UK I had a Jensen Interceptor SP mk3 440 cub in with Holley 4 barrel and Chrysler Torqueflyte transmission if I remember right, seemed quick at the time, nothing compared to a BYD Seal which reaches 100kmHr is less than half the time.
