Whitehouse 872 Posted April 23, 2017 Rather big one. For me that is. I grew up watch his programs about the newest gadgets that were available. He was Chriet Titulaer, quite a character with a distinct voice and a face your could recognize out of ten thousands of people. Always fascinating to see. Rest in peace. For all the Dutch in here, just a blast from the past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whitehouse 872 Posted April 23, 2017 This clip is amazing. This is from 1993. The man was a sort of Nostradamus. He predicts four things that are going to change cars in 15 years. 1) Other types of fuel. Lots of cars drive electric these days, or natural gas and hydrogen. 2) More plastic will be used in cars. 3) much more electronics like board computer, satellite communication, television.. 4) Driverless cars.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
