Blue is the new green! Toyota Yaris Hybrid XS

Toyota Yaris Hybrid XS

I have wanted to review a hybrid vehicle for some time.  For a motoring journalist, it is equivalent to a food critic getting to try out a vegan veggie pesto wrap.

When you think hybrid, you think Toyota. The Japanese brand launched their first mass-produced hybrid, the Prius in 1997. It has been a car…

passion of the plunge*

Hmmm… the infamous blind date.

 

As vivacious and vigorous as I am, I have never been a fan of the blind date. In fact, it instils in me a sense of terror rather unparalleled.
