I like the looks of Zermatt.

Just tell me when and I will be there.

I concur Tony. My mistake. I meant Fully Booked.
Too much excitment running through my fingers :)

I will have to check again then Tony as the number i got from HRMC was a lot higher than that.
I think for an A3 it was around 207 per month.

Anyway, I just in case you are right, I have just grabbed my car form back from HR and will do some checking.

Bandit, you are very correct in what you say.
Well I have the answer, the batteries are sent to Landfill.

However, they are designed to last for 10 years. The logic behind this from Toyota was that in 10 years time they will have a solution to reusing the batteries.
When did you drive a Prius?
The reason I ask is that the models from 2005 and the new 2009 version handle a lot better.

As I did say the only real benefit to having one is the tax you pay Mr Brown. I have a company car and when I order a new one in a couple of weeks it will be a Prius. Why you ask? Am I mad?
Nearly but a company car tax is 62 per month in tax for a Prius or a Honda Insight (Hybrid). I could have an Audi A5 which would cost me 279 per month in tax.
12 months of saving that amount of money in tax pays for my two skiing holidays in 2010.
Not quite so mad afterall :) :)

That is expensive in my opinion, but rest assured I know it doesnt count for much. :)

I am only kidding, 484 for a week is pretty good and on average is about what I have paid for the last couple of years.

Apart from ADH in January when another J2Skier got a deal with the Lift Pass included.

A Prius is a superb car.
Environmentally friendly depends on where you drive.
For school runs it is super.
Motorways, well you may aswell buy a 5.0l engine with 400bhp and super duper turbocharger.

They do have one massive advantage, you dont give fat boy Brown much tax money.

That is the price on Rocketski that I just checked.
It is for Club Hotel Le Grand Aigle.
I dont know what Club Hotel Board is but it is ski in out.

Our chalet seems to be fully board Tony.

You can always come to Serre Chevalier in Mar 2010.
I think we fly out on Sat 6th Mar for 1 week.
£469 pp from Manchester. Dont know if that takes your fancy. There are 4 - 6 of us going out.
