Concept cars really do hold the key to the future

I like looking at the newest concept car offerings which are often show-cased at, I believe, very overstated events. The incredible specifications, such as self drive settings and exteriors which can change colour, never cease to amaze me.

However, although I daydream about owning a car with such advanced features, it seems that these concept cars might be a truer indication of what the future hold than I first thought!

A 1969 concept car, which goes by the name of Holden’s Hurricane, has been put back on display at an event held in Melbourne. The flashy vehicle was originally unveiled 42 years ago in the same city when its features would have been seen as revolutionary.

The vehicle boasts a rear-view camera, digital displays and a primitive magnetic GPS system. Mind you, the car might be pretty difficult to find a car insurance quote for as it has been fitted with a 4.2 litre engine and a roof which lifts off entirely.

Finally, my dreams of a car which doubles as a dressing room might actually come true! Only time will tell.
