Tearful anniversaries: A look back at the EV Lambo

First, press play. (Or not.)



Was just about this time last week in which the world was introduced to the EV Lambo...


[EV Grieve reader Joe]

It brought immediate media attention. (Daily Intel ... Runnin' Scared) ...

And we saw the birth of @EVLambo.

We fought. We flirted. We fell in love.

And now. Nothing. Like A-ha, we've hunted high and low for the EV Lambo.... nothing.

We've had our hopes crushed. We saw a flash of orange by the Mars Bar... and we ran! Ran until our legs were bloody stumps a few feet away... Crushed, like an orange. A different orange sporty car!



Oh, just that other orange sporty car.

  1. perhaps the lamb was intimidated by, or has succumbed to, the new bike lanes and the m15 select service.

    oh, lamb, please don't go.

  2. Just like Burt Bacharach and Hal David, I'll never fall in love again.

  4. @esquared - thanks for finding the Mars photo. I knew I'd seen it and was driving myself crazy trying to find it. Glad I wasn't imagining things...I can relax with my drink now.

  7. I keep hoping that the EV Lambo runs over Ed Burns at the end of that video. I hate Ed Burns.

  8. I killed it. But, like Christine, it shall return. With evil in mind.

  9. As an aside, A-Ha's Hunting High and Low has been one of my favorite songs since high school (lo those many years ago)! :0)

  10. My old bldg and the rock I smoked as a teenager are in this video. Cool. I've seen too many 20 (the addition of 2 #'s) video's with this as the theme song to really listen, such is life...I have the same name and Birthday as her.
