The Festival of the Unexceptional. It's English of course. I bet they even serve milky, lukewarm tea.
(You don't see events like this in New Zealand since we still have plenty on the roads.)

Introduced in 1992, the ECC wowed the crowds at the Paris Motor Show with its hybrid drivetrain, which featured a gas turbine powering the vehicle's single electric motor. With just under 100 horsepower on tap, the concept provided a decent dose of real world driving capability and a useful 90 miles of battery range. It touted a future where ecological stewardship was paramount, and milked the public's nascent fascination with the coming information superhighway by adding a live LCD traffic feed to the cockpit called Dynaguide.

I wonder what William Towns would have thought of it?


Or Trevor Fiore?
