That sounds like something that needs to be seen to be believed - cameras at the ready :lol: :lol: :lol:

ok so we're trying to do it on a scale of environmental impact
i bet exclusions won't be made for those of us running on cleaner fuels such as LPG!!
so much for reduced road tax on LPG vehicles...i aint seen it yet!
:evil:

Another much over looked fact 4x4 tend to last longer as built that little bit tougher.(theres still series landy's on the road)
How many of you have fixed ur moter with second hand parts (probably most of the 90/110 and series drivers)
Will probably be ok/safe to put back on the road after a mild bump/acident(recently down my mates workshop he was rebuilding a landy after it hit a polo that pulled out infront of it. the polo was a rightoff)
My freelander does better mpg than my parents 307 1.6 or a 2l mondeo for example even better than my old mondeo as it was the st24 2.5v6
Its shorter (inc spare wheel) than my old r reg mondeo salon by 18.8 cm (that 7in to the older readers) the mondeo estate off that year is 30.3cm longer????????
Ok I know mines not the bigest most evil off the 4x4's but it is a popular one a middle of the road one but so is a 2l mondeo and a 1.6 307 they are also middle of the road .
So which should be persacuted???
Niether we already get stung by the tax on the fuel we use.
And for the idiots that say we too big and cant see past us BACK OFF ur driving too close and yes my tow bar will make a mess of your car when I brake suddenly for that cat than ran out in front of me then magicaly disapeared into the bushes/line of parked cars?????????????????

There's no real point in arguing this logically as its all about populist politics and 4x4 vehicles are an easy target. Pure & simple. And our wonderful democracy will do precisely what it likes regardless of majority opinion.
I have discussed this in the local area with anyone who wanted to have the discussion, and have always won it through reason and logic. Governments care naught for reason and logic, only votes and polls.
So like most I will continue to pay for my choice of vehicle - Dear Mr Blair best bring a few big lads with you when the day comes you want to take it off me ;)
