Also, I believe that City of Westminster give concessions on parking

charges
to such vehicles.

Wow, I didn't know that. Another good reason to consider one.

=====
The City of Westminster is committed to a cleaner environment and therefore
allows electric vehicles to park free of charge during controlled hours on Meter
and Pay & Display bays throughout the City.

Thanks for that. I had a look at their web site but didn't see anything
straight away. Is a Hybrid car the same as an electric I wonder? TfL
doesn't think so (although they discount both).

No, a Hybrid car is a petrol engined car with electric assistance.

You can easily get similar fuel consumption out of a Golf PD Diesel although
some would prefer the Prius for it's alleged environmental benefits.

"Please note that the above concessions do not apply to hybrid vehicles."
