Classic Cars, not what they Seem Anymore?

 Bangers & Cash, Car SOS, Wheeler Dealers and find it, fix it and flog it!

These are some of the popular car restoration TV programme's in the U.K. that rebuild old cars and make them road safe for various clients, but also for auctions and they are interesting even for people who are not really vehicle fads?

But now with much new technology about many want to update the engines to LPG or Electric and for some this is an abomination, while for others it makes sense to pull away from burning fossil fuels!

If this does occur we may see some of the early concepts become more alive on our roads, such as steam coaches and wagons, and what future designs become of them in the world of electric and AI powered motoring?

The Sci-Fi, Reality. Part-One.

How much?

Humanity has progressed at a very fast pace in the last 150 years, what was written as pulp fiction eighty years ago has now become a reality. Man has gone into space, to the Moon, has built a Space station and is sending robotic probes to more than just the planets in our solar system.

We have massive ships and fast trains, Levitation railways, and automobiles that are both fast and comfortable. The Cell or Mobile phone now dominates our lives, we cannot live without them. Microwave cooking, Solar panels, computers, inter-active TV.

What we have developed now is amazing, but what will we have achieved in the next 150 years?
