Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC: Any hybrid daily drivers out there?

[francis newman (francis]

Hi Tom

as you quote my name :-)

You have it so good over there. As Britt writes, gas here is over 10  
bucks a gallon. It's got the stage where one starts questioning  
whether one needs to make some of the longer journeys. What with  
congestion charging in London, and extorionate tax rises on all but  
the most boring cars, motoring is fast becoming no fun over here.

Enough to make you want to get pissed regularly - purely for medicinal  
purposes of course :-)

Best

Francis
