The "Arabs" only have around 20yearish of oil to provide the worlds demand anyway, and tbh wouldn't you think the major companies that provide OIL will also provide this new source of energy? because they are multi-billion doller companies lol.

you're really stupid bestbet.

your comment with 'petrol will inevitably run out', yeah ofcourse it will, just like the sun will eventually burn out. its not like we're in short supply of oil, the high prices are because of oil mainly being in arab country, and not so much in uk country.

and your comment "owuldn't you think the major companies that provide OIL will also provide this new source of energy? because they are multi-billion doller companies".

thats like saying "wouldn't you think bill gates would invent a cure for cancer coz hes a multi-billion doller company?"

no. oil companies specialise in selling oil, not inventing new energy sources.

and cold fusion isn't a theory. lol.

Heh, mine does 0-60 in 8.9 and it does 39mpg.

Arabs don't control the prices of our "end-user" petroleum.

The. Goverment. Does.

It's an internal UK problem.

The EU is going the same way... Why do you think the country hated most by the Arabs(That's USA by the way) have very cheap fuel? Anyone seen the NHS in the USA?

Just a cheeky 1.6, but it's been fitted with a turbo and tuned, it's pretty nippy.

I love it and hate it at the same time.

I'll get some pics when I have the time.

I'm a bit ashamed of the engine as nothing aesthetic has been done to it really, it's ugly and covered in plastics.
