Toyota Prius

**cbrookes** · 23rd February 2011

Hi, does anyone have or know of anyone with the gen3 Prius? I am considering 1 to use as a taxi. From what I have read they are reliable and will easily average over 50mpg

also as the emissions are so low it is 100% tax deductable in the 1st year! I am looking at the T Spirit model and at the moment the best price I have found is broadspeed at �21571 although I havent worked on the dealer yet. Has anyone seen them at a better price? Cheers

I was in the new Auris Hybrid the other night and its a great car. Might be a bit small for a taxi though. Is the boot big enough for cases and bags on the prius. The battery takes most of it up.

Have you considerred a blue motion passat?

I also looked at the Auris but the boot is tiny. I think the boot on the Prius is big enough tbh, have looded at the Passat but I think it will cost a fair bit more to run, and the dealer was rubbish! Very nice car though
