I would still trust a driveless system over some of the idiots on the road today. I surf alot and people ask me "are you scared of the sharks?" And I say "no, I'm more scared of the drive to the surf". I think for it to work all existing cars would have to be taken off the road and these...

I can't find your bank details on your page. I want to buy two! :p

I recently purchased a house. Cost price 334000. All of my expenses added up to about 30k. That was with 5% deposit and lmi borrowed ontop. 30k fully streached. Don't know how he did a 10% depost (28k and 2k from mummy and daddy) unless he got more money from mummy and daddy that they are not...

If you have the spare cash and you are time poor/ not in the location AND hesitant/confused. Then yes I recomend it. If you are purchasing in your back yard then do some serious research to fix the confusion and watch motivial youtube videos or something to fix the hesitation and just go for it...
