I still like the old 3 wheeled mountain bike invention.... Small Electric drive to single wheel at rear (no rear diff), and two wheels up front, for stability. A light weight car...
If I ever lose the drivers license, I will be ordering a custom from this dude... 3kW... Put some big stickers on the side saying "200W Electric Vehicle" & "Ultra Light Weight" in small font.... that will throw the tyre kicking coppers off the scent.... (I'll organise a over-ride switch for the 200W mode.... make it 3kW all the time)http://www.abc.net.au/tv/newinventors/txt/s2868444.htm
Someone with more knowledge might shoot this down but on face value looks good.

On ninemsn today, the poll question: "has rising fuel cost affected your quality of life?"
So far
9000 YES
1900 NO
that says a lot.
The sad thing is I did the math and driving to work with the missus in her small Hyundai is still cheaper than the train ride by $30.00 a week (have a company parking spot in town). The Barnett team is increasing the train fare by 5% next financial year..... well done you idiot! 
The problem is Felix, you are assuming the Pollies care about you and I and the struggling masses, even if they do a hopeless job while in power (which they all do) they get kicked out at the next election and retire on a ridiculous pension. No other career rewards incompetence like politics!
