Now they've become quite common - in London at least, due to the
artificial tax advantages - just watch the way they are driven. Despite
claiming to have nippy performance they in practice accelerate like a
side
valve Morris Minor - the owner obviously with his eyes clamped on the
economy gauge.

Which touches on an old thread. (IYR?) I'd bet that the Minor achieved a
similar or better MPG than the Prius,

The Minor did 0-60 in 30 mins.

Better than your Prius then.
