  1. New words in my repertoire:

    Kill car,
    Hit Car,
    Getaway Car,
    Burner Car,
    Hit and Run car,
    Vehicular Manslaughter

    Some in the underworld, some in the upper world.

    "Kill cars" are vehicles that have been stolen, sometimes months in advance, have cloned plates and contain a kit to commit and get away with murder." >

    You don’t see many of these in the UK. A 57 Plymouth I believe, but with harsh sodium street lights I’m not sure if it was yellow or white. I’m sure I remember reading most left the factory in white, but thankfully it wasn’t red and driving itself…

  6. Early cars were naturally based on horse-drawn vehicles, but this design takes that philosophy further than most. The horses are here replaced by a 4-wheel tractor unit.
    This remarkable vehicle has now been identified as the landau of Grand Duke Alexis of Russia, drawn by a Heilmann electric tractor circa 1898.
