[Shamsis]

I just thought I'd introduce myself, it seems only polite. I am a lurker but the sister of one of your members, so I thought I would sign up and stop hiding.

I don't own a Hyundai, although I have had an Atoz in the past, I have a Toyota Prius and a little Kia Picanto.

This seems like quite a friendly and helpful place, I hope you don't mind me just reading.

Hi Shamsis,

Heh, I have short everything, that's why I drive a Picanto!

And good old Grammar Schools, eh? Articulation and Badinage in equal proportion.

Sis - what do you think of the Prius - my brother-in-law is thinking of getting one.

[Shamsis]

I have the T-Spirit, top of the range model, with built in bluetooth and sat nav, and absolutely love it.

The insurance is not bad, the road tax is a miserly £15 but the fuel consumption varies so much on how you drive and your journey type. Hubby drives 4 miles to work and that's all, and it kills it, but on a journey up to see big bro, 88 miles away, it goes right back up. We're averaging 52mpg just now, which isn't too shabby.
It has its flaws, no heated mirrors, no mp3 connection, basic stuff, but I still love it.

Tell him to wait, if he can, till next year when the new model comes out.

The Prius is called...The Prius, it is too self-important to have a name.  

[Lakes]

Hi again Shamis, well a pruis does not have real Heart or soul, so guess it's just a Pirus
