Funny too...love that robbery

I wonder if that ever became a police training video afterwards.

If you scroll down all the vid's are pretty amazing. The 11 year old girl with the killer voice. The German building a judder bar etc.

And the guys from Top Gear driving a Bugatti at 400 plus kilometres per hour.

They have to have the best job.

That's cool, but I laugh at the fact they think it will one day power itself.

Pure perpetual motion will not exist. Energy can only be transferred, not created and no method of conversion will ever be 100% efficient.

So imagine if they have a solar panel on the roof, an electric air pump that can be powered eather by the panel or some of the compressed air, that way you have 2 inputs (when it is sunny) vs 1 output. Sure isnt 100% efficient, but preatty damn close, and could travel far, and no harmfull emisions.
Sure it looks like granny's car and doesnt go fast, but its is preatty good for a first ruff sketch. And it only costs around 5000 euros ...

An electric air pump run by air, good thinking there Einstein :niceone:

you could use the exhaust air to turn a turbine which would generate power - think outside the square.

But then it wouldn't be an electric pump, but rather a generator used to power a pump.

Personally I think the compressed air guys were off the mark. But in their brilliance they realised they could get a lot further on a lighter vehicle. So they made the new car small light and three wheeled and then managed to sell the idea to a couple of airlines to try out. I'm thinking they should bury the thing. Oh and find out the designers name and make sure he never touches a bike.
