PEAK - http://peak.telecommunity.com/Articles/WhatisPEAK.html

"""PEAK is the "Python Enterprise Application Kit". If you develop
   "enterprise" applications with Python, or indeed almost any sort of
   application with Python, PEAK may help you do it faster, easier, on a
   larger scale, and with fewer defects than ever before. The key is
   component-based development, on a reliable infrastructure."""

FWIW, I don't use it, but I'm aware of it. I use a component framework I
develop for work & fun called Kamaelia - but PEAK is what you're thinking
of.

BTW, since it might be helpful, from your request I punched the following
search terms into google - which links to the tutorial mentioning cars and
wheels:
   * Search terms: wheel car component lazy python

:-)

Best Regards,


Michael.
