If you think that new British cars are a bit behind the times these days, take a look at this Foden HGV that just turned up at the pub next to our house this afternoon. Completed and first registered March 2009!









At a maximum speed of 15mph, this steam powered chain-drive beauty provided this lot with the ultimate pub crawl!

I wonder what tax bracket that will be in, I think its CO2 emmisions might be a tad on the high side

I would love something like an old steam traction engine

Maybe not if you factor in the AWD transmission losses.
