Re: 83rd Geneva Motor Show 2013

Excellent stuff, I went last year for two days and the ECO theme was fairly predominant too with almost all major manufacturers having some form of electric or high economy vehicles. Did Tesla have a stand this year?

This rolled out of one of the Air Livery hangars at Norwich this morning. No prizes for photo quality as it was taken at full zoom on a Blackberry.

Yes, but you are not in a full time well paid job, which is probably why. The armed forces get other benefits which outway student discounts anyway a...
