If it were only taken by a bunch of touchy-feely girls I might sign up, instead it's taken by a bunch of over-sensitive touchy-feely blokes pretending to be girls... but not your classic well groomed Asian lady boy, but the more "let herself go" kind.

If you lease it over 3 years, you can get it for about 23 pence per mile. both assuming an average petrol price of £1.50 per litre. Did some math, man you suck a bit :)

A Barabus though is about an additional 35 pence, but then if you're into that you may as well go buy a VW golf for the additional 2 seats - man I hate those. The cost of the volt has not been released, but I will estimate that it will compete with the <a href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/driving/used_car_reviews/article3552994.ece" rel="nofollow">Toyota Prius</a> somewhere between £25k and £35k therefore the total cost of running you Volt assuming maintenance free batteries, service free shell, and insurance free world will be 75 pence per mile. So I see the following: <ul> <li>If you really want a decent get about that is eco 'friendly' yet light to run, then the smart car is about your best bet.</li> <li>If you want to look like a complete pretentious knob, then the Volt, Prius, or a hefty BMW is your option</li> <li>If you actually want to be environmentally friendly, get the bus.</li> </ul> Oh, you could also make your own diesel for 21 pence per litre :) Fair point, but if you don’t mind the 2 seats and a groceries boot, you can get a brand new petrol, mid end smart (but still in the ‘cheap’ emissions bracket) for about an additional 8 pence per mile therefore totalling around 27 pence per mile.
