What happens to ugly cars no one wants to buy?

By amber.

Have you ever wondered what happens to ugly cars that no one buys? 

Cars like the Nissan Cube just seem to fade away into obscurity, without any mention from the media or from Nissan itself for that matter.

In fact, there doesn't really seem to be a definite answer to this question. These cars just eventually get pulled from the market, and probably simply recycled and sent to scrap yards.

Brazil's Shocking Defeat Against Germany

By amber.

Congratulations Germany!

Germany won 7:1 against Brazil yesterday. They played incredibly well, and some would even say with a lot of style! They were practiced, efficient and ruthless, and weren't shy about exploiting Brazil's weaknesses.

Here are some interesting facts about FIFA:

-Germany is the first country to reach the semi finals in 4 consecutive tournaments

-This game was the second meeting between the two nations at the World Cup

-Germany succeeded 3:2 against Brazil in August 2011

One thing's for sure, this World Cup has been full of shocking moments, and surprise victories. What will the Finals have in store?

Fun Fact Friday... Bet you'll never guess how this car ended up THERE

By amber.

Fun Fact Friday is back! And today we're asking...

Where's the weirdest place you've ever seen a car accident? Well, we think we can top that...

A showroom car crashed through the window of a Chinese dealership several stories up! What happened is that the customer wanted to test out the engine, but didn't realize the car was in gear!

Luckily, he didn't go all the way through the window, and was able to walk away from the incident unscathed. All that can be seen at the site of the accident is the demolished window of the showroom and half a car hanging out. How weird is that?

Hopefully none of you will ever get yourselves into such a position, but if you do, False Creek Collision will be right there to lend you a helping hand.

Stolen Corvette turns up 33 years later...

By amber.

33 years ago, George Talley's favorite 1979 Chevy Corvette was stolen from a Detroit suburb in 1981.

On June 13 of this year, he got a phone call from AAA. They told him that his stolen car had been recovered, and that it was ready to be picked up. 

The car appeared 840 miles from where George originally had his car stolen, and with 47,000 miles on it. 

Nevertheless, George has been reunited with his beloved Corvette, his favorite car by far out of the three other Corvettes that he's ever owned.  

Amazing!

Fuel-cell or all-electric? The battle wages on..

By amber.

Global auto makers are arguing about which 'green car' strategy to take in order to dominate the market in the coming years.

Some say that fuel-cell vehicles are the way to go, while others are betting on all-electric cars.

Whatever the outcome, one thing's for certain: Low or zero-emissions vehicles will very soon dominate the independent travel market and governments world-wide will be putting stricter vehicle emissions standards in place.
