However with all the green talk of the owner to the Transport Select Committee you would have assumed his fleet would be made up of Toyota Prius's.

Or perhaps the green credentials only apply to others. :roll: :roll: :roll:

The environmental impact of shipping the batteries and the raw materials from one end of the world to the other for the Toyota Prius would probably negate any environmental benefits.

I've seen Ford Galaxies without tinted glass, Addison Lee probably orders them as an option (along with the automatic transmission). Does look smart though and gives a good impression.

I'm pretty sure the good folks of London would sooner breath in air mixed with the fumes from 1200 Prius's rather than 1200 Diesel Galaxys.

The prius will only carry 4 passengers but the Galaxy will carry 6.

ive seen 6 in a prius

we cant plate a galaxy for 6 here due to "tipping seat" regs, nor zafira's, not seen a S-max either
