    Just bought a Prius for my Wife. she has MS and is slowly losing the coordination in her limbs, so needed an auto to be able to continue driving. The Prius with its CVT box and high degree of automation fits the bill. The excellent fuel economy is a benefit.

    Ive found a Gen II going cheap. it has big miles but is in supreme condition and has a full Toyota dealer history. The price was right so Ive taken a punt. looking forwars to collecting it next week.

    I myself will be sticking to my big smelly veg powered pick up truck, but i may sneak the odd drive in the Pious.

    Welcome! It's easy for the second generation Prius to cover 100,000 miles and still have lots of steam. Give our best to, "she-who-must-be-obeyed.
