just had to post this c**p

grrrrrrrr

davidlandy:
they forget to mention that all 4x4s sold are compliant with the emission regulations at the time set by the goverment.

if people in smaller cars are 21 times more likely to get killed then their cars are unsafe.  they should consider driving a 4x4 as it is statisically it is obvioulsy safer.

my defender does 30mpg - my company mondeo I had at the time my defender was built was a 2 litre petrol that did 27mpg

my defender is shorter, perhaps slightly wider and higher , but that doesnt add to congestion it improves it surely.

oh i wish i could think of a sticker!

David90:
Agree with Dave - I drive a 1988 Landy and a 2003 Volvo V70 T5.

The Landy is shorter than the Volvo and does more MPG. It also fits into parking spaces without overhanging and can do a U turn round a mini roundabout in one go (the Volvo needs a shunt back halfway round - scares other drivers  :lol: ).

Whilst the Volvo is superbly built I doubt very much that it will still be going with IT'S 16 years old, or for that matter continue for many years after that.

If I should run you over with either it's going to hurt. Mind you, if you are a Rambler then this may involve the use of reverse gear one or more times as may be appropriate  :wink:

I heard the interview with the anti guy on Radio 2 today - strange how he doesn't drive or own a car isn't it. Bet the b*gger owns a bobble hat though  :evil:

I am right with you on that one!!

Anyway, I'm not sure my Discovery could gather enough speed to actually do very much damage :wink:

Our Rnagie certainly does, but then it stops damn fast too.  Anyone pulling out in front of something that size deserved to be removed from the genetic pool.

As for motorbikes I can only sympathise, most car drivers like to feel cocooned in their cars, something the industry is pandering to, and this detaches drivers from the consequence of their actions.

Range Rover Blues:
As for the posters, I'd take one of each.  I've been laughing my so-and-so off for about 5 minutes now.
