To pull him up for driving a green car at a time when the whole world is aiming to become greener is a little bit daft to say the least.
I actually find it quite refreshing that he's driving that and not some souped-up cock extension like every other footballer seems to need.
It's hardly 'green' to
fly parts from all over the world to assemble a car though?
Also, it runs on electricity right? Where does the electricity come from? Fossil fuels!
If that car is green then the driver deserves to have England caps!
Mate, if that were Robinho or Bellamy behind the wheel everyone would be wanking and saying how great they were for setting an example. My blue tinted glasses only stretch so far. Neville is a complete cunt (that is beyond question) but
to ridicule him for driving a Prius is just a little bit childish IMO. There are plenty of things to take the piss out of him for and I don't think that this is one of them.
I'd sooner take the piss out of this
http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/05/ ... 68x302.jpg but I guess that's just personal opinion. I saw it driving through town the other day and was thinking, wtf? It's a fuckin spaceship.
I didn't.

The electricity it uses comes from when you hit the brakes in the car! The Prius isn't a plug in electric car, it's a hybrid which runs on normal petrol most of the time (the new model is a 1.8) but also can run on electricity that it generates as it drives along to aid with the efficiency. Whilst some of the smallest diesel cars can get similar MPG they also emit far more nasty crap out of their exhaust.
Also, every car made has parts "flown" (far more likely shipped to be honest as airfreight is bloody expensive) from all over the world. The point is though that all the others keep on guzzling fuel like its going out of fashion whereas the Prius is a stepping stone in the right direction.
Incidentally the argument against plug in electric cars isn't exactly valid either, firstly a lot of the electricity in the national grid isn't from fossil fuels, secondly the cars produce no emissions and the power production industry already has tighter controls on emissions than road cars are governed by. Lastly, as more laws are passed and cleaner electricity production methods are adopted over the years electric cars will continue to get more and more green (the greener the grid, the greener the car) something that most definitely cannot be said for any petrol engined road cars which typically get less and less efficient as time passes and wear and tear kicks in.
All the more reason to check out what Neil Young did with his 50 year old car. The company explain just how inefficient even the most efficient petrol engines are today.

the point is (for those who are applauding him) is that he is driving it in an attempt to be cool as opposed to being 'green'

I don't think anyone has ever driven a prius and thought they were cool.

That car looks really like him as well. Ugly as fuck. Even has the gay little tash under the badge!
