Think again! Just look at this baby
Hmm... steel / carbon fibre composite flywheel rotating at 60,000 RPM, in a vacuum, - what could possibly go wrong?
So you think a DMF is complicated?

DMF? That's a bit of a sore point with me right now
Speaking of Moggy trunnions....A garage I used to work at was on a sharp corner....the number of times Moggys came round the corner and dropped the wheels was frightening
Later on the Marinas!!
BTW, Welly, I went round to drop my car off at the Volvo place my son works at yesterday so that he could fit the new front tyres I bought (they allow staff to use the facilities after work, with permission) I had a good look round the cars in stock and quite fancy a Volvo now, some good looking cars in there.

Looks like the plan is to make them even more complicated
Running in a vacuum, just like the designer's minds.
Wasn't the old story the Marina was a Moggie redesigned over a liquid lunch?
