Td4 chip -worth doing?

Tbh, there's plenty of small petrol cars now that give fantastic mpg- better than the sort of thing we get from the Prius things at work. If it's just economy you're after, get a small, cheap VW diesel Golf or Polo or a small petrol car. If you want to save the planet, then don't get a Prius....

I thought about getting a second small car but small cars in my experience are not the best for 200 miles of motorway a day- I know as I tried it when I had the Paj. And second insurance, MOTs, repairs etc negated the savings. I just drive slower instead. I know you couldn't drive slower if you tried though...


How about a motorbike? Or even an electric bike? Possible with your work..?

I had a Toyota Auris Hybrid as a company car for a while. The BIK was ridiculously low, MPG was great (60+) and it drove well. All in all a great car. I suppose the proof of the pudding would be if I'd actually buy one with my own money - too right I would if I needed such a car now.

Worth looking at.

How often do you see the awful Prius on the motorway at 55 mph? I never seen one doing 70 that's for sure. In .
