No fires or electrocutions took place here, and the carbon-fiber body looks a lot better than a lot of other cars that took a hit at a hondo.

Fortunately, both driver and passenger survived this terrible accident. The driver suffered a broken hand and some minor bruises and the passenger has been released from the hospital. The passenger was ejected at 100mph and survived with only minor injuries???

Perhaps the same car from the Motor Trend review.   11-03-2008, 08:19 PM   #5 TEG Tesla Fan     Join Date: Aug 2006 Posts: 5,944 It looks particularly pathetic piled on top of that burned out minivan like that.

If it goes 0-60 in 4 sec. The owner or driver should be required to take advanced driving classes. __________________ "When one teaches, two learn." "Convincing yourself doesn’t win an argument."

It won't be there for long. In there are quite a few very interesting parts. Electric motor if nothing else. __________________ Tesla Motors Club FAQ Because, You've got questions!   11-04-2008, 03:30 AM   #9 dpeilow Super Moderator     Join Date: May 2008 Location: Winchester, UK Posts: 2,961 And the battery. You still can make out a British tax disc in the windscreen. How many UK-registered electric blue demo cars are they likely to have? I'd say there is a fair chance that this is the one Motor Trend drove. At least the occupants are apparently ok.
