it has to do all the other occasional, but so often vital, trips

So they use some of the money they save from the cheap energy,
reduced

tax, etc on the day to day electric car to hire a more suitable
vehicle

as required.

Figures were posted recently about how much one of these cars would
save

someone communing into central London with, no congestion charge,
free

parking and charging etc. I forget the numbers but it was several

thousand pounds...


I wonder which comedian came up with the figures.....


You must stop making things up.
