4x4s Get Off the Road
andycwb:
I've just had a long conversation with their researcher.
She confesses to being deliberately provocative in the flyer. I'd have suggested putting "why don't you get a Land Rover" flyers on Ford Kas if she wanted to do that, but that would have got even more of an "anti" response.
Which brings me on to the real point: almost all of the reaction she's had to date has been from the anti-4x4 commnuity. They are really keen to get stories from 4x4 enthusiasts, and the urban 4x4 crowd as well. Especially good are any "rescue" stories - there are enough good samaritan stories from MC members on here to fuel some good coverage.
This is a REAL opportunity for us to publicly put 4x4 enthusiasts in a good light.
If you can help by contactacing the programme directly, or providing material I can pass onto them (I'm happy to do a little editing and I've had some limited press training), please do so.

I just sent an email in regarding myself using a 4x4 and disabled access to the countryside, see what happens.

Just want to point out something that bugs me- you dont have to be either or! Fair enough, finchley where i live is hardly the outback but just because i live here doesnt mean i cant drive out!
Would they prefer it if i had a whole fleet of different cars to suit every journey i make?

like most our 3.9 rr runs on gas we dont get a reduction on tax like new cars on gas we even asked at local dvla why our tax is not cheaper and they could not give us an answer we will never be able to afford a new car and hubby has a bad back and getting in and out of small cars hurt his back

That just doesn't make sense...... I actually answered the questions which is the last thing the PM does!
