It is now four years since I started driving a car powered by bio-ethanol. Those four years ended yesterday when I returned the car to the dealer with only a few days left to run on the lease.

The car that I have replaced it with no longer runs on bio-ethanol (E85), although it does use the new E10 fuel.

So how have those four years been and why did I switch back?

Well, whilst on the one hand it was nice to try something new (more…)

Who hasn’t dreamt about a flying car after watching films like “Back to the future” and “The Man with the Golden Gun“?

One possibility for that dream to become a reality may come from the Dutch Aerospace Laboratory, as this article reports.  Their solution is more of a combined car and helicopter, which would fly in GPS-controlled air corridors.  And yes, apparently it will be able to run on bio-ethanol.

I wonder how long it will be, until I can fly to my customers?
