You don’t have to wait to buy a stylish,
all-electric car that could save you up to
£3,000 a year on fuel and tax alone.
London’s NICE Car Company will sell you one
today.
Fuel prices have risen beyond £5 a gallon
for diesel and petrol is not far behind.
With supply problems in the headlines
recently drivers are understandably
concerned. Cheaper motoring is just one area
where NICE owners win:
-
Running costs are estimated at around 2p
per mile, around a tenth of the cost for
a standard car fuelled by petrol.
-
There’s no annual road tax; all NICE
vehicles are zero-emissions and
therefore exempt.
-
No congestion charge either; NICE cars
are exempt right now
-
Free parking; many London boroughs offer
free parking or beneficial rates for
drivers of all-electric cars.
On fuel and tax alone the company estimates
the saving could come to more than £2,7001
annually. That’s a conservative estimate
based on just 4,000 miles motoring and 240
trips within the congestion charge zone. And
it doesn’t include the significant savings
made on parking and parking tickets.
Of course, owning a NICE car is not just
about saving money. The cars are quiet,
pollution-free and are almost 100%
recyclable. Importantly, the Mega City is
voluntarily crash tested for occupant
protection by its French manufacturer.
The Mega City starts at £11,499 on the road.
It has a 40 mile range from one charge and
comes with standard equipment including
CD-radio, electric windows, parking sensors
and remote central locking. In addition, it
has a two-year warranty. |
