You think know all about the Tesla Roadster. But have you seen the funky touch-screen lurking next to the futuristic sports car's steering wheel? Do you know just how dangerous it could be if its electric gubbins mixed with water? Did you know it has indicator stalks from a 1983 Vauxhall Nova?

We didn't think so. That's why we've brought you latest, exclusive video footage of the Tesla Roadster. This includes an insightful interview with the car's product manager -- a man who stores a frankly unhealthy amount of Tesla facts inside his head.

Want one? Of course you do -- this thing does 0-60 in 3.9 seconds, which is fast enough to embarrass Ferraris. It might cost £79,000, but it'll only cost a few pence a day to run. You can pre-order now for a May 2009 delivery. -Rory Reid
