Proves you've never driven one - or a decent car. They handle like a pile of poo. The steering is unpleasant as well. Feels like a US 'small' car.

"nightjar .uk.com>" >> Current petrol engine efficiency averages 32%,
Waiting at a traffic lights with the running engine, the efficiency of a petrol engine is 0% When an electric car is at the traffic lights it is at
100% efficiency. IC engine efficiency decreases very, very much at low power demand. Diesel engines loose efficiency at low power demand too, but not as much as a petrol engine. Both as still crap.So when a 200hp engine has to deliver only 5hp for crawling in city traffic, the efficiency is extremely low indeed. And they also pollute like hell and ruin people's lungs.

Oh well that would explain why he wants everyone to live in a shitbox constructed from ticky-tacky. He doesn't want to feel alone.
Hey, Drivel!
Milton Keynes is where the UK would get piles if it had them.

In practice not if it's running air con or heating.

BTW - love the idea of a stationary car being 100% efficient. So a car with no engine at all is 100% efficient...

A petrol car with a catalytic convertor actually produces less pollutants than exist in city air. The main by product of combustion is CO2, and that doesn't damage lungs. Of course it may on the planet you come from.

No. That was the Royal Liverpool Golf Club ina town called "Hoylake", not the grotty one you live in.
I am? New to me, although a fine city it is - unlike the grot one you live in.

A city has a cathedral. MK's one is made of trees planted to resemble the outline of Norwich Cathedral.
So a sham - rather like you, but probably in better taste.

Err no, it's at 0% efficiency since it is not converting power into motion.
Fuck, but you're dumb.

nightjar However, I was not talking about energy efficiency. I was talking about
In what way? I can only get to about the same as anything else, myself.
Depends very much on what type of driving is under coinsideration.
I don't think so.

As far as exrtracting motive power, its 0%.
Its also 0%..it may be 0% of nothing of course. ;-)
Indeed. 0/0 is anything you care to choose between 0 and 100%.
