I'm sorry but I really do not know what you mean by the media hype or the "stars" that buy them :?
I have always ignored what appears to be 'hype' in order to formulate my own opinion on something.... I cannot recall ever reading any hyped up comments on hybrid cars but then again I regard most forms of modern media promotion as crap :?

dont you, sorry i assumed you knew everything!! So far you seem to....
right back to your previous comment , dispose of does not mean remove from the universe. You can dispose of hydrofloric acid...infact you pay a lot of money to do so....but it still exists and will still kill just as easily as before. So can we agree that disposal is simply moving the problem elsewhere.
As for prius owners being pratts then i stand by it,as its my opinion. They bought the car for one of 2 reasons.
1- they want to be green
2- they want save money on fuel.
as we all seem to have agreed they are neither green or as economical as they appear to be.
You seem to be an expert on everything, well try running your CLEAN Landcruiser on bio diesel or oil....i think you may end up with a large repair bill.
BTW this is MUD CLUB not clear wheels r us.... :roll: Fancy a day laning??lol

So what was your use of the word "pious" meant to be.... don't bother to answer as I already know :?
As there are a couple of you that seem to dislike the Prius concept so much can you tell me that you hate this car with the same passion
Although still a concept car it might just make it into production. It has a 3.5 litre engine with the same hybrid technology that is in the Prius.... oh yes it is a crap pious car too but with a total of 400bhp!

I think thats butt ugly!! The reason I'm against the Prius has nothing to do with the styling, its to do with the way they promote it as "THE GREEN ALTERNATIVE" when its clearly not!! No factory I know of that produces bits for our supposed green monsters of the environment has poluted the environment the same way as the place that produces the stuff for the Prius!!

And just what is so comical about that statement ?
The Range Rover was ground breaking design and technology at it's best when it first appeared on the market and is still an icon and the forerunner to every other 4x4 SUV on the market today
Including that fugly piece of Jap design in your sig
whatever it is..................................................................

I get the usual crap about driving a gas guzzler from my esteemed colleagues. However, I drive about 300 miles per month in my Disco (heavy driving month) as I cycle to and from work. We drive to Kent in my car as it will hold all of our luggage and fit 3 adults(I include myself) and 2 children in car seats. Last summer Kim said we would be going to Kent in her Honda Jazz ?????????? I told her to give me a shout when the car was ready for going - after an hour she came in and said " looks like we are going in yours" The issue here is if we both had smallish saloons then we would be taking 2 smallish cars to kent instead of one larger one.
To get to the point of the thread, yes the pious does seem "green" but at the end of its life it creates more pollution (FoE) to dispose of it than it did to create it. ALL Landrovers can be built and rebuilt from previously scrap landies/ rangies et al
