Directed energy drilling for Geothermal is quite interesting.

Small nuclear reactors will be where its at. Safe small reactors hopefully....
Rolls Royce are spending a lot on R&D here and it makes sense

RR have been doing this for years on nuclear submarines…

First post of a long time lurker - daily (sometimes compulsive) visitor of the forum since I placed my order last year.

Long story short, I have a V6 FE on order from Lotus Antwerp and work 5 mins away from them. They were gracious enough to send me pictures when the cars arrived and I went by an hour later to see them in the flesh.

I'm partial here since this is what I ordered (after a lot of hesitation between that and Nimbus Grey) but found DV absolutely gorgeous. Very dark but also very clearly green. Gives the car a lot of presence on the road.

I'll attach some pictures but they won't add much to the ones already posted, except maybe the ones I took to show the differences in colour depending on shadow.

Didn't notice that the linkage wasn't exposed (but I might be one of the few who doesn't fancy the mesh much). Interior finish looked quite good to me. There is indeed a (slightly oddly placed) FE badge on the front dash.

Other questions please shoot.

And for the anecdote - while I was there, two middle aged ladies passed by and asked whether this was a Ferrari. #fortheconnoisseurs

Awesome first post! Welcome to the forum.
Did you manage to capture any pictures of the FE badge?

Didn't take pics of the interior but the badge is rectangular with rounded edges, approximately 5cm long and 1 wide, and features the "1" in a circle - quite similar in layout to the badge on the rear pillar.

Great lookin Ferrari ! Did you see what the wheel sizes where ?

Think they are aiming at safe small City powering plants. But who knows!

 

[virtualmacho]

Will the reactors go in the rear of the car, and cooling towers in the front ?

This pic is from another thread. Not the best placement IMO.

Welcome to non-lurking! It must be exciting to have these cars arriving so close by. Did the dealer say when they are going to start doing test drives and have you booked one yet? Look forward to reading your feedback once you’ve driven it.

Awesome, thank you!

It looks like its centered directly in front of the passenger seat.

What a first post!... With a unicorn DV car pictures. I agree DV has won me over since the Belgium car arrived. Keep us informed on your first drive! Welcome
