« Last post by paul cotter on Today at 18:04:27 »That's an interesting observation, Alan. Here in Ireland we have had an alarming increase in road deaths over the last two years. There appears to be no shortage of idiots here, maybe we could export some if you feel your country is running short?!!. Driving on an idiot free road/motorway could be actually enjoyable instead of apoplexy inducing. On the mileage question, the boss' car(Renault clio hybrid) will do ~50 to the gallon - I can testify to this as I have been driving it recently as my 20year old Honda civic has gone to the great service station in the sky. The clutch hydraulics failed and I could not source a replacement master cylinder. Now I will have to choose the least worst of the current range of overly complex motors.
