Saw not one but two Gordon Murray T50's travelling in convoy on the way back from Daughter #1's today. Despite each being a 3 seater they dont look very practical and don't seem to be much use for anything other than making late middle aged men seem attractive to young women.

Awesome machines, from what I've read about them (Car, Autocar, Top Gear magazines ,etc...) in interviews with Gordon Murray
No forced induction, a 4-litre V12, 650+ BHP, weighs less than a ton

Tickover, to 11,000RPM in less than a second :eek:

Not ultimately fast, in hypercar terms, 226MPH
As Murray himself called, possibly the last of the analogue/old school super-cars

There's a McLaren dealer in Leeds, I keep going past to see if they get one, or have a F1 in for service

It sounds like an air-raid siren in the tunnel
How much is induction noise, & how much is exhaust?

Saw them oncoming and at first thought they were F1s but saw the big fan housings in my mirror as they went past and the penny dropped.

Presenting this hideous example of tasteless, bloated, overpriced horribleness, I saw one on the A650 in Bradford, near St James Fruit & Veg Market, starts at £315,000 and seems it doesn't come with bluetooth as the driver had his phone clamped to his ear! I didn't laugh (much) when a Luton van rear door flew open and nearly hit it

But neither pointless (see my wad, peasants) nor impractical (SUVs shall inherit the earth) though
