Now I've seen everything....
Does this mean I can park there?
Mine's a hybrid!
Runs on both petrol when cruising around town & baby seal skins when out on the track!

I am so glad you can park say a Lexus RX 450h SUV there but not a Getz. Makes sense to me
Me? Bitter? f**k no. I think it's hilarious.

Makes sense to me, I wouldn't want to park my car next to a hybrid and risk getting it damaged by a smug, self-absorbed inconsiderate prick.
LED ALL the things.

It's the same for a small turbo diesel... The Peugeot I used to have would average 3.0L/100km on the highway at 110... I'd like to see a hybrid do that, as most hybrid systems turn off over 80km/h now...
I'll have an FTO one day... i swear!
until then:
1. 2001 Merc-Benz A160 (porta-loo on wheels)
2. 2007 Peugeot 307 TDi (more fun than you'd expect)
3. [url=ttp://ftoaustralia.com/v3/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=25373]2009 Mitsubishi Triton Di-D (a monster in its own right)[/url]
4.
1992 Nissan NX Coupe (club car and project car)
5.
1996 Holden SB Barina - "The Nugget"
6.
1996 Jeep XJ Cherokee Sport - The Budget Build
7. 2010 Toyota Landcruiser 76 Series - V8 Goodness... - Build coming soon.
8. 1990 Audi 90 manual - The delightfully dignified daily driver

Do you still have to pay for parking there?
If you get priority and free parking for driving a hybrid, maybe it's worth building a 6A12/13 motor after all
