^Interesting.
I've read stories that the Prius won't start after running out of gas & battery unless it clears some error code.

In the budget, they mentioned exemptions from MVT and VAT.

Hmm. Thats real strange about the MVT and Vat. At least they saw sense in increasing the age to 4 years!

Classic Motors has launched the Caribbean’s first ever Honda City Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) version, which Ansa Automotive managing director Jerome Borde has said is $35,000 cheaper than the comparable petrol variante.

The dual-fuel City CNG includes a 65-litre CNG tank capacity and a 40-litre petrol capacity. It goes for $150,000 and is said to have one of the cleanest internal combustion engines.

Hey folks, if this was answered already I apologize, but I got bored reading all the back and forth above. I am looking at a hybrid Harrier. Are there any good repair persons or places that can fix these vehicles? Besides Toyota... Parts I think I can source online that should not be a problem.. just finding persons to work on the vehicle is my concern...
