Quote from: billy rubin on February 14, 2025, 11:25:45 PMit has too many wheels for me.

if i had hundreds of thousands of pounds to spend on a motor vehicle, i would buy one of these:



not too many left. ^^^this was the last one made. they go for US$350,000. set up like this one, they would do the ton a hundred years ago.

i would ride it like that. how could i do otherwise?

Will also be dust one day.
Is it 4 wheels good 2 wheels bad, or 4 wheels good, 2 wheels better?

As for humans, what the worms can't eat and plants can't absorb, dust also becomes our common fate.

Quote from: Asmodean on February 14, 2025, 01:43:28 PMYeah, but that's not a car you drive - it's more a work of art you collect and never let a single mote of dust land on top of.

I mean, it may see ten miles of asphalt in a year, if we are being far too generous.

Not to mention you cannot outrun the 2nd law of thermodynamics to which everything is subjected.
One day the car will be dust.
Some people own vanity.

It may be a footballer's car but it's a snip compared to what the part owner of Manchester United drives.

"The most valuable car to ever change hands is the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe. It sold at an exclusive Mercedes-Benz auction in Stuttgart for an astonishing £113 million ($146 million) back in 2022."
