A Steam Car, Hurrah!

Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] armb; BMW are working on a hybrid engine that is basically a conventional engine with a steam engine harnessing power from the exaust heat, producing quite a lot of energy. It might even be offered as a conversion package eventually. Doubt we'll see it in bikes, unfortunately.

Bah, it isn't a steam car if it doesn't have black smoke billowing out of ridiculous chimneys, extraneous gears and pulleys and other things that go clank, whoosh and creak just because. ;oP
