Green is taken, by the Army.
There are more than a few shades of green; doesn't have to be olive drab. A bright metallic green with sparkles, such as you might see in a rainbow parade, would be fine with me.

Depending on the country, it is possible to register the car as oldtimer. Often the yearly tax is much lower. And often the yearly test is not necessary.
Of course there are restrictions, it needs to have a certain age (25, 30, 40 years old), you can't drive it on certain days, a max. amount of km per year, etc. etc.

A bit of a surprise was the statement by Dyson that their new car manufacturing facility will not be in the UK, where their test and research center is based, but in Singapore. The reason given was mainly quality of workforce but obviously Brexit and proximity to the markets 'with money' played a major role.
They will spend 2 billion GBP and expect to have the facility up and running in 2020, with a full operational production of an electric car in 2021. (No, I don't think it will look like a vacuum cleaner.) Since they don't collaborate with any car manufacturer, that amount seems a bit low but we will see.
Weird how things can go. Some years ago, we would have said Apple and Google would be the new non traditional car manufacturers.
I also think the other manufacturers already have their full R&D and testcenters in place.
