		<title>Nemesis update &#8211; nearly there.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s the latest.  We&#8217;ve almost finished making a new lightweight rear body panel for the car.  The old one was very heavy and floppy, so our guys whipped up a new one in carbon fibre.  It&#8217;ll actually help us with the fitting of the charging equipment by saving the need for engineering [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nemesis Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A quick update on the car front.  
I had my first breakdown the other week. I went to drive away in the morning and everything was just dead.  Turned out the 12v battery we use to power the control side had gone flat, and oddly enough a couple of fuses were blown.  [...]]]></description>

Video production: Tim Walter Associates Limited
Here&#8217;s our latest, probably penultimate, video update of the wind car project.
I&#8217;ve had the Nemesis (yes it finally has a name) on the road for the last few weeks and it&#8217;s been a lot of fun (unless you&#8217;re a hedge in my vicinity&#8230;.:). 
I&#8217;ll give the car back to the [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Wind Car &#8211; Epsiode 10 of 6</title>
		<description><![CDATA[				
				
 Video production: Tim Walter Associates Limited
Is it a Nemesis?
It finally happened.  Last Monday on a windswept old airfield in Norfolk, we got the wind car out of the workshop and took it for its first spin on tarmac.
Not entirely without a little drama mind you – the car barely being able to climb [...]]]></description>

 Video production: Tim Walter Associates Limited
This months highlights are;
Meeting the Sun&#8217;s environment correspondent – yes seriously.  They&#8217;ve not had one very long but they do have one and he is serious about it &#8211; and:

		<title>The Wind Car – Episode 8 of 6</title>
		<description><![CDATA[				
				
 Video production: Tim Walter Associates Limited
Here’s our latest video.  The big focus of this episode is design and, as you’ll see, it’s definitely taking shape.
I’m off to Norfolk next week to meet the Sun, they love the idea BTW, and nail down a few questions on detail (with the A team).
Couple more weeks after [...]]]></description>

 Video production: Tim Walter Associates Limited
Here&#8217;s the latest episode of our Wind Car series, clearly we&#8217;re running behind the original plan, with episode 7 of 6&#8230;  
But hey ho, I don&#8217;t suppose the wheel was invented in a day &#8211; to mix metaphors a little.  
We hit a big milestone in this [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[				
				
 Video production: Tim Walter Associates Limited
The first thing I should say here is that this isn&#8217;t the last episode of our little video series – it can&#8217;t be &#8211; we just haven&#8217;t finished yet.  So expect Episodes 7 and probably 8 of 6 before long&#8230;  
Second thing to say is I&#8217;ve got [...]]]></description>

 Video production: Tim Walter Associates Limited
Thanks to everybody for that massive response to the last video posting on the wind car.  And some more great names rolling in.  I&#8217;m going to reply globally here if that&#8217;s OK.
Couple of people raised valid issues/questions – why aren&#8217;t we making a family car for example, [...]]]></description>

You can see the body really starting to take shape here, and hear Peter talk about &#8216;toughening up&#8217; of the look, from his original.
We&#8217;ve &#8216;placed&#8217; all the parts within the car now and began machining/producing some of the bigger [...]]]></description>
