Why not ban white vans they must be equally dangerous? If you bushing off Amazon they it will most certainly be delivered by these 100 drop per day machines of death!

Who knows what people should pretend, and what I don't like, but as I have no chance of changing your mind, can we just leave it that buying and driving these types of cars in most places around the world is currently legal, in the UK drilling holes in the side of tyres of cars in a show room is illegal, and while letting down a tyre with a lentil is a bit of a legal grey area, a punch in the face is a strong possibility.

I made no comment about the legality of SUVs; plenty of other things are also antisocial without being illegal.
I'll leave punching in the face to you.

I certainly won't do the punching in the face, but it doesn't mean others won't. Fortunately I think I live a bit too far outside the average tyre extinguishers comfort zone.

Does this mean Kent Street has reopened? It seems to have been closed for drainage works for weeks. On a side note, it’s between Barbican Road and Fawcett Street, not Piccadilly.

No, it was still dug up
I used Piccadilly, as a reference point, that people might know?

Biggest problem I have with mine is that small children get stuck in the bull bars and underbody protection causing it to stink after a few days.

@roubaixtuesday this is a fairly accurate description of what happens to people too so bull bars are good and do help long-term life of the vehicle.

I saw this, whilst looking for another vehicle, @Drago, this could be useful?

Ineos Grenadier, has anyone driven one, what did you think?
I’ve heard mixed reviews but was driving one for the day yesterday, what a piece of kit!
It’s most certainly doesn’t have the silent comfort of a Range Rover on the road but it is so capable off road. We were on a shoot yesterday in some serious deep Yorkshire mud, rough terrain and steep inclines and the Grenadier performed faultlessly.
