Volvo XC60 6-cylinder bio-ethanol engine

It’s amazing what sort of videos some people upload to the internet.  Here is a video of a car with a bio-ethanol engine.  Very quiet, and no engine views unfortunately.

Could it be an advertisement for a paint protection product?

Open Veins of Latin America

The latest bestseller book may not come directly from Bolivia, but it deals with the history of the South American contintent as a whole.

I am, of course, talking about “Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent” by Eduardo Galeano.  A book that only last week was probably little known, even amongst Latin American enthusiasts, but has now risen to fame after President Chavez of Venezuela gave a copy to President Obama.

The book is available on Amazon, although it currently shows delivery times of up to 6 weeks!

Can you run a Land Rover on bio-ethanol?

I don’t know the answer, since my experience with bio-ethanol vehicles is limited to Ford models.  But you do have any clues, you might like to help the people in this forum.
