The UK is #6 globally in terms of GDP, and at least where I live in the south east there are Teslas everywhere I look.
I think this says more about the problem with averages.

I've been fortunate enough to own both Subarus (Imprezas) and Porsches in my time. As another commenter mentioned, I purposely bought these to "hoon around in".
I didn't have a crash but I wonder if this was more down to luck than better judgement/driving skills. I'm older now, have kids and a better grasp of statistics. I drive a lot slower and considerately these days.
With all the AI fuss, I personally don't think it'll be long before cars are, if not driving themselves, will only allow themselves to be driven within the bounds of sense. Cars like this, and the drivers, will be confined to the race track and the "Porsche Experience Centre" at Silverstone, as per the article. I don't think this is a bad thing.

I’m by no means an expert but could raising rates increase the strength of the pound, which could have a deflationary affect on import prices, including energy?
