    Nissan has to congratulated. We in the UK should support them by working to make this investment a success. Buy British, (produced by UK labour), should be our motto for the future

    This is great innovation in car building. The CO2 emissions are increasing much, and the big usage of automobiles last years, means that it will not stop increasing. We should reduce it, with such cars, like this. I hope that car builders will pay more attention to the earth and will care about it much more.
