I can imagine the Horn goes "Oroight Mate"

I think this Tata will be more sucessful.-it cant be any worse than the Cityrover

But I still see it being a "london only" phenomenon. (do do de dodo)

I would start an arguement with you regarding Renwables vs Nuclear, But I'm a Hydro fan, so dont want to be seen supporting Windmills

From personal experience with Brummies (my employer's English partner is from there) it will be a "Roosh Jobe Mayyyt".

I have no argument on Hydro. Hydro works and is good. Damn impressive engineering too

Happy New Year

It looks like leccy cars are getting a kicking. When the eco-mad Guardian has a go then its perhaps not going to catch on...

The Nissan Leaf – a perfect use for that unwanted Christmas jumper

The new electric car is a step forward for zero-emission motoring. Just be sure to pack a few warm clothes if you want to avoid 'range anxiety'
And at the same time the troubles of the Civic get another airing alongside anxiety of battery shortages...
