Lyn - Six and one-half horsepower - enough to operate the power windows, power seats, and blue-tooth enabled radio / cd sound system - but not the air conditioning - on today's automobile. Looking at the features it is advertising, it is a reminder of how much the automotive technology had changed in a century. Thad

I think it's great. Are they still in Nottingham? If so, I'll have two. Blue wants one of his own. He says it will attract the opposite sex.

I've just bought a new car which has all mod cons but I wish it had only cost 100 guineas (that's about $67.75 us)!

Hard to believe they had a 65 Horsepower car back in 1913.

Today my neighbor has a 95 Horsepower Tractor.....go figure.
