I wish they would get their emmisions figures correct, but then I suppose the media wouldn't publish this B/S.

I am going to buy a tiny car with a stonking big V8 in it and then see what they say!

this annoyed me - "We intend to make driving a big 4x4 in town as socially unacceptable as drink-driving" WHY???

then they talk about lamborghini's - how many people drive them!???

If I was earning £100,000 a week I'd be driving a Toyota Prius.

In terms of carbon dioxide emissions, sports cars can be more polluting than 4x4s. The Lamborghini Murciélago, driven by Robbie Savage and James Beattie, produces 500g of carbon dioxide per kilometre, compared with an average of 170g/km among new cars sold last year.

HALF A KILO!!!!

Why not go the other way with something like this with the engine from a Toyota Prius in it?
They can't argue then , 'cos the emmisions will be almost zero, which is what they keep banging on about.
