BBC Documentary: The Germans, Their Cars and Us

Astounding documentary about Germany's economic stability/growth, and how Great Britain lost out big time.



I am however, a little surprised that there was no mention of Ferdinand Porsche. He had a very big impact on Volkswagen. Notably, the VW beetle paved way for the 911.

Bee Preferences

"Male bee pollinators can prefer orchids to real females, prematurely end a copulation with a real female to visit an orchid, or be unable to find real female bees among fake orchid signals" (Gasket 2008). Why do bee's sound a lot more human now? 


Change "Orchid" to "Sports Car" and you have the general formula for the everyday guy. lol

Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series

Ahh, nothing like the sweet sound of a 630hp naturally aspirated V8. Chris Harris is most definitely my preferred choice when it comes to automotive journalism.
