You've made the reply very easy for the civil servant that gets the job. The Govt never mention 4x4s it's the press that do that. The tax is based on emisions and the VED Band that each vehicle falls into. I can almost see the reply that you and everyone who signs up will receive - it's probably already written.

--- Quote from: "waveydavey" ---They can tell where you are to within about 3 meters if you have a mobile pone on you; that is even if it is switched off.

Err, I think you have to have it turned on and I doubt if they can place you within 3m, may be you could explain to us how they do it?

I don't know how; to be honest it beats the hell out of me but we get lecturers on board and have now had three talking about the security services and all three said the same thing; as long as the battery is in they can locate it even if it is switched off.
floyd fan:
When your mobile is switched on its continiously sending a signal to the nearest mast saying "here I am". I not sure if its possable for more than one mast to pick up the signal (but I think it is) then its just a case of triangulation.
