| on the fence? what if one of the lazer things break? then its guranteed to be a 3figure sum to fix it, rather than a few quid from a parts place? | |

| Looks like a good thing to me. Complaining abot cost of repairing it, well, new bits on cars are always gettting more pricey to repair as they become more tecnologicaly advanced. Its abit like complaining that a car has an air bag because it will be expensive fix if it goes wrong (any you do have to fix them for mot). | |

| hmm, yes lazers can be split up and used to ignite fuel vapour, however, the lazer has to hit something to heat it, and the way i see it it'll be heating part of the piston, unless they aim it at a replaceable element of some form then over time the primary ignition areas will start hot spotting and i reckon over time it could lead to piston damage. | |

Airbags? I dont even have ABS. Keep it simple, 4 wheels and a big box of explosions. | |
