    There seems to be a row of mobility scooters parked up at the front door.Me being a pessimist again, now we'll have people lying prone in inductive charge bays to give their pacemaker a boost!

    Ecology friendly electrically powered/hybrid vehicles - HaHa. What a joke.
    The energy expended extracting & refining the exotic materials utilised, and the additional pollution created in doing so makes these type of vehicle - Cradle to Grave, at lot less efficient than most of the newer petrol & diesel powered vehicles currently available.

    they really aren't any greener when you take into account battery toxicity and wasteage, the only true green method is to stop driving your car.
