The Daily Telegraph is reporting an increasing number of older cars in use on UK roads (don’t blame them, there’s hardly any new cars around I’d spend actual money on if I had the money).
About 5.3 million cars are 15 years old or older, according to figures from car marketplace Auto Trader, up from just 1.7m in 2001. The number is on track to rise to 9.3m by 2032.
Lots of reports flying around earlier that switching to crappy electric cars is really biting Ford in the butt, with them said to be losing $60k for each one of the stupid things they make.
Ford lost roughly $60,000 per electric vehicle sold in the first quarter of 2023, as the electric division remained on track for roughly $3 billion in yearly losses, according to the company’s earnings report.#CostOfNetZero

AlltheInterweb Motors is a section of the website I started around 2013 aimed at fellow petrolheads and to try better put to use the car links section of the old web directory.
In 2017, as with many of my other online properties I re-launched it with a Responsive Web Design makeover while experimenting with Mobirise to try get the hang of knocking together websites via that new fangled method.
As that section ended up getting neglected (and other issues), I’m aiming to give that section another makeover to update the links on it and better integrated it into this blog, as I plan to shortly with the front end of the website.
Main thought so far is better connecting it to the car forum section here on the blogs, with the original forum currently toast due to some sort of change in CGI/Perl that means the damn thing no longer appears when you go to the link
