I was thinking about the Rover P6 gas turbine car the other day, as Jaguar are talking about having a gas-turbine version of their new hybrid super-car.

Not sure if there are any gas turbine P6 cars left, but they made a very distinctive sound...

Quickbeam - in 20 years time electric cars will have been laughed off the road as hydrogen will be a viable fuel by then.

Going off subject, imho electric and hybrid cars are a waste of time that exist merely to satisfy a political agenda. The majority of vehicles will still be sole petrol or diesel engined for many years. Their efficiency is constantly being improved and hydrogen is not as far off as some people think.

how about the rolling bell sound that you get in kiddies pull along toys :-)

There's always the school boy flick card against the spokes, held on with a clothes peg...

If people who've had a drink cant see the back of a 20 ton truck with reversing lights blazing screeching "Warning! Vehicle reversing!" through a speaker thats getting closer & therefore louder,then it wouldn't matter what noise or level of noise the electric car made,there'd be carnage on the streets @ pub closing times.I grew up on a street that had steep hills either end so you heard the vehicles approaching and knew to get off the road,if electric cars had been in common use back then,I'd likely not still be here. :)
