Hi Danny,
I agree, SOME people with 4x4's don't need them and I whole-heartily agree that they are the ones in the wrong. People who live in urban area's, don't go off-road and have several children should be driving MPV's or saloons. But my hate for them is due to the way they drive - may aswell be a white van in disguise.

BUT, the point I am getting at, is the rules the Government are making and the like, I initially thought would be aimed specifically at this type of 4x4 owner, but it isn't, its also hitting hard the average Mondeo, the mid/large high spec hatchbacks, sports cars and pretty much a big proportion of the country.
