Was he crying?, If so, that'll be the taxi owner who's worked out it would have been cheaper to buy and run a Mondeo diesel wagon than those bloody hybrid white goods on wheels once you factor in $3500 plus labour for a new drive battery just after 200k and tyres every 15-20k (so 5 x a year). Not to mention you need the hands of a 5 yr old just to change a headlight globe..... I could go on, but I digress... He's just trying to minimize the hurt over the life of the car. ... or he's decided it's cheaper on gas than to replace the battery, but without the battery it would be so gutless it's not funny.
