  • I've always said that the Electric Vehicle is all about control, the Electric Car is to restrict our freedom of movement! The powers that be are not even driving themselves but tell us we can NOT purchase a petrol or diesel car after 2035. Buying an EV is more expensive than it's equivalent petrol or diesel version. I found proof that EV's are the future, is their PLAN to BAN CARS and FORCE US all on Self Driving Public Transport Electric Vehicles? Here is video EVIDENCE that they are trialing this! You WILL NOT DRIVE, YOU WILL NOT OWN a CAR! I also show you video PROOF that Electric Cars are ACTUALLY the PAST and didn't catch on then other than maybe on fire!

    Years ago, I was on the bus with my two very young daughters. I came to my stop, managed to get my younger daughter off in the pram and went to turn around to get my older daughter who was waiting to grab my hand to climb off the bus. The bus doors closed and started to leave. I ran to the front of the bus and banged on the doors. The bus driver stopped the bus, opened the doors and I was able to get my now upset daughter from off the bus. Had the bus been driverless, it wouldn't have stopped and God knows where my daughter may have ended up. Not every idea should be an idea used. I will walk the distance if these horrible things are put into action so that these monstrosities are the only things available. I refuse to go and use any EV vehicle because of how they are made. We're getting a future pushed onto us against our wishes. Let those that want the EV future have it, but let the majority of us keep our normal vehicles.

      If the supply grid fails totally then everyone has a lot more problems than worrying about whether their car will go. But if there's a local or temporary outage, then an EV is pretty handy because you can use the power in the battery to power essential appliances until it comes back on. A woman in Australia recently used her car's battery to power the fridge that keeps her child's insulin cool, and in another case someone's kidney dialysis was kept going in the same way. If it's a local thing you can even drive your car to where the power is on, fill the battery, and bring that back to power the house. As often as you like.
      If it's a bigger issue, well my money is on the EVs, particularly in Australia where so many properties have solar power and charge their cars from sunshine. Lots of people in Oz don't even need the supply grid to charge their cars at all. Whereas ICE cars would be completely useless without electrically-operated pumps.

    Great museum Lee. Impressive to see. Also a fun fact, the vast majority of the 1990's-2000's BTCC racing cars live in Australia. Also note their is a big motor racing event just outside of Sydney soon called the Bathurst 500, which is the Australians version of the British Touring Car Championship.

    As a petrol head from early childhood in the 50s I never got the appeal of Capris. They were pale rather limp imitations of the mighty Mustang with gutless 1.3 or 1.6 engines for the most part and they didn’t handle as well as their Cortina counterparts - if you can call it handling. They were very fond of swapping ends on you in their standard form. It’s amazing the effect rose coloured glasses have eh? Still it’s great that some have survived.

      There was a v8 version, The Ford Capri V8 Perana, not sure if it made it to Australia but i did know of a few guys that owned a capri with a v8 in them but was a bit to young to remember if they were the Perana i liked them but i also would of preferred a 1970 or 1969 Boss 429 Mustang absolutely love them.

      @@MadMax351The Perana was a product of Basil Green Motors in Edenvale near Johannesburg, South Africa, endorsed and approved I believe by Ford of SA. I test drove one years ago and was impressed. The 302 cu. in V8 was what the car should have had from the start to legitimately claim to be a Mustang alternative! Later in SA there was also a Sierra XR8 with a similar engine set up!

    A friend's husband went to a public school (uk private school) where the boys were known by their surnames, his friend's was Morris and he had a younger brother so they were called Morris Major and Minor!

    My parents had a friend who owned an old checkered cab that he owned as his personal car. The back seat was huge and there were jumper seats that were folded in case you had extra passengers. With the jumper seats you could easily fit 5 people in the back of the car.

    My first car was the 1974 Mercury Capri, 2800cc V6 engine, 4 speed manual transmission. It was dark brown, but had a gold tint in the sunlight. Ford sold it, but it was built in Germany and was considered a foreign car here. Mine came with a factory sunroof that opened by hand crank. It was my favorite car, even though I had a terrible time keeping a good transmission in it! When I first saw it, it reminded me of a Porsche.

    As a petrolhead, that was awesome,Lee. But no Holdens with bloody great V8s in them 😁. As an ex motor trader I sold a beautiful Capri 3000 GT. On starting that Kent engine used to rock the car on idle. So much character. Mum and Dad had a new Capri 1300 XL in Ermine White. The back bucket seats look fantastic but crippled you 🤣🤣

    The idea of autonomous buses is to keep you within the 15 minute cities. Simple. 2030 You WILL own nothing and be happy!....Or else!
    Remember, the less mobile you are, the easier you are to control. England is doing a swell job of implementing these ideologies. Then again, so are Estraylia, New Zealand, Canada, basically the Plantation owned countries. Speaking of countries, here's a riddle: If Empires are run by Emperors, Kingdoms are run by Kings, who runs a Country?.....many won't get it...LMAO

    What an awesome car collection. Would have been great if you had looked at some Aussie Fords and Variants. My dad owned three Variants and loved them all. Australia made some great cars back in the day. Thanks Lee for sharing.
