With what does it produce the steam?

[jennywiom]

It is a paraffin-powered car with a 10h.p. engine with 3 cylinders. The paraffin is used to boil water in the boiler, to produce the steam.

Is that a "Chitty chitty bang bang"?

[FEStanley]

Its a Turner-Miesse, a Belgian design made under license in Wolverhampton

[jennywiom]

Many thanks, I'll do a bit more research around that.

Why people don't start making steam cars again when oil is just simply too expensive and it's running out.

[jennywiom]

See my edited comments about the video, now I've found out a bit more about the car - it is a bit of a paraffin guzzler! Still, that's a lot cheaper than petrol/diesel at present.

Steam cars still use gas in their burners and piolet lights.

@suomunkrisu steam engines are amazingly heavy if u put one in your car the frame will prob hit the floor

@suomunkrisu

Paraffin is made from oil.
