BL52KRZ - is there any reason you are not driving a steam-powered car? Stanley Steamers were fast and quiet, with amazing torque. Apparently the invention of the convenient electric starter motor on IC engines was responsible for the Stanley's demise. Technology is constantly finding answers to problems. But first, you have to accept ther is a problem. I am pleased to hear that Tesla test the durability of their cars and the life of their batteries, as do most car manufacturers. My brother is shortly to invest in one, and 24 solar panels to provide the electricity, so he can drive the 40miles to his city centre job without the need to pay for fuel or ULEZ charges.
