I know, however he likes it. Some of the party tricks are ones that he actually uses, such as using battery power to enter and leave his garage (attached to house and with a door into the kitchen), which used to involve a big whiff of diesel getting into the house twice a day, not to mention the noise, plus he works late and can come home almost silently. 15 quid road tax is nice, congestion charge free (I believe) which would be worth a fortune to someone that has to go into London every day. The parking assistant seems like a waste of space as it takes too long to set it each time.
I think they are a good compromise at present, but apparently the new generation ones out in 4 years will feature 125mpg plus more acceleration.
