Is this the first company to mod a Tesla ?

Is this the first company to mod a Tesla ?

Thanks to Speed-Hunters again I have found what I think might be the first professional modifier of Tesla’s Model S saloon.

Bullet Proof Automotive in California have started the development process with body kits and suspension upgrades with more to come. A very forward thinking company that also does some other really wild mods to modern petrol powered autos.

New M5 engine exhausts inside the V

New M5 engine exhausts inside the V

Amazingly the new BMW M5 V8 engine reverses the normal flow of intake charge and exhaust flow. The exhaust valves send the exiting gases out into the middle of the V in the block and straight into the twin turbos also mounted in the V. (hard to imagine how they deal with the heat from the turbos there)

Saab Museum re-opens


Well the Saab museum has re-opened and all those quirky cars get to stay together thanks to three Swedish interests: the city of Trollhättan, SAAB AB and The Wallenberg Foundation.

Driving is an art isn't it ?

Driving is an art isn't it ?

Occurred to me on the way home tonight that driving is a learned art. Some people think its just a basic skill to be learnt to get around in today’s society but its more than that. Some people can really drive and I don’t just mean racing drivers. Some people just shouldn’t have a licence. They mentioned it on Top Gear last night, some bloke in the UK had failed his theory exam for the British driving test something like 92 times !!!
