        Wife got one of those recently- trouble is it was a replacement for her Mitsubishi Shogun & a bit of a disappointment - having driven it I have to agree
        How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

          Range Rovers are only driven by bling laden drug dealers in the city. I know I drove through Mosside yesterday and you couldn't move for them!
          Politicians are wonderfull people, as long as they stay away from things they don't understand, like working for a living!

              Personally I think a diesel hatchback/estate/MPV is more suitable, don't get me wrong I would have an SUV but when diesel hits £2-£3 a litre I'd rather have something that does 60-70mpg so I can still afford to eat.

              Saying that, the new small turbo petrol engined cars may be the better bet. I read recently that diesel is getting more expensive down to the type of oil available yielding petrol easier than diesel.

              Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                Even that is more of a stereotype than reality. They are not so much more polluting than a normal car and they are just as polluting as average big size cars. Besides, I was reading somewhere that they have more recyclable part than normal cars...

                If I could go back I'd buy the Nissan SUV today, good for the city and good for the motorway too.
