I hate coffee. I think I have an intolerance to it. Just a few glugs and my head pounds, my mind clouds over, and my throat dries. But I know I am one amongst few; over 400 billion cups of the legal addictive stimulant are consumed per year.
But now, a new home for coffee has been found. Welcome to the Carpuccino. Yes, it's a car run entirely off coffee beans, and the converted 1988 Volkswagen Scirocco has just broken the land speed record for a car run off waste alone at 58.5 mph. Costing between 4 and 5 times more to run than the average car, it is doubtful the business venture will take off. It's certainly different. Take a look at today's BBC article where you can see the car in action.
