  1. I've heard rumours that with the prius, if the batteries fail a few years after the warranty has expired, that's the end of the vehicle as they're so expensive to replace. Not exactly energy efficient! Also, What is the carbon footprint of making the cars? The batteries are made up of lots of very expensive rare earth metals, which are currently mostly found in China, so they have to go onto massive container ships to be transported around. Currently the only electric car with NO rare earth metals in it at all is the tesla model S.
  2. Just tagging myself in for easier PM'ing if needed Just to add, we should be able to answer most questions between us too
  3. Oi! Dedman (AliveBoy!) was there too! Feeling neglected now
  4. Wouldn't recommend it, what if you crash and the insurance company see you put a child in a car which specifically warns against it in the manual? Or if they see you intentionally disabling part of the airbag system which is an MOT requirement? Yes you can disable the front one, but what about the curtain and seat airbags? As my Dad always said to me "you might drive like an angel *cough* *cough*, it's the other people crashing into you which is the worry!" Personally I wouldn't bother, but it's up to you. and apologies if I sound all preachy and pretentious, not my intention

  10. you'd have to warm the bottle up to pour it out

    Zedified seats.

    I think the "traditional" z would be better, that one is a bit odd

    I have a rubbish exhaust with a pretty decent silencer in it? Could get the silencer put into your current exhaust to swap the faffing about? It's like this: edit, it's a weld in one, not a slide on one like this
