CHarcoal powered Rolls Royce

[Snoopy]

Still no Roller and I think I am probably talking to myself but maybe someone will be interested in the week.

[Snoopy]

A steam powered car from 1907. Large enough to take the family but not as bulky as the need for a boiler and water supply would lead one to expect.
This one was made by "The White Company"



I can't find any Rolls Royce cars that ran on steam and still only three references to Charcoal but I think my theory  as to what constitutes a "Charcoal-powered" car is sound.

Anyone else got any ideas?

Mightn't they explode though, like?

[Snoopy]

No more than a steam locomotive might.


How often does your hot water tank at home explode?














Nah ~ forget I asked. I forgot who I was talking to for a moment there.

Did you watch James May on that prog. last night on alternative fuels?

Those yanks that can make 3 gallons of petrol a day, out of FRESH AIR and sunlight, or p'raps those geeks that are planning and developing a 20,000 mile high series of solar panels, tethered to a '20,000 mile long rope' from mother earth?

Itcould lift you over traffic lights,like.

Does it have a remote control?
