ken's at it again
Range Rover Blues:
Shouldn't it read, "mercedes, Porche, Rolls Royce face tax hike" as only 40% of the cars in band G are large MPVs?
once again, bandwagon, jump, lack of facts, lazy journalism, ar*****es.
NeilWilson:
The Mayors press release does not mention 4x4 at all. I have used the BBC web complaint page to point this out to them.

All you are doing is falling victim to biased journalism again. The BBC are supposedly the best news service in the world, yet you perpetuate this rubbish! I'm sure if you read the statement you might find that the term 4x4 isnt used in it anywhere.
Also, could you tell me how my 1.6 Suzuki Vitara, now almost 15 years old is worse for the environment then a 5.0lt 1 year old Jag that will never see 15 years old, because, I'm having significant trouble with that.
You are winning no supporters and you are damaging your reputation. the 4x4 community is not a handful of people that like to go tearing around the countryside. We number well into the tens of thousands and we take our hobby seriously and respect the wishes and desires of others and to put it bluntly, we are now starting to get really fed up with this attitude.
Can I point out that before you jump on this band wagon your own business uses and relies on 4x4s from remote access veichles to TV props. Also that without them The Ambulance Service, Fire Brigade, Police, Water Board, Electricity Services, Voluntary emorgency services would all be stuffed.
Get your facts straight and get off the bandwagon, because sooner or later, its gonna fall flat on its face, just like all the others.
Your duty is to report the FACTS and trying to change them to get extra publicity is not part of that. Nor is this supposed grouping all polluters under 4x4's so the public can understand. Right or not, thats distorting the facts. If you mean MPVs say MPVs, at best, its you being lazy.
