Need to write a letter to Mr Gordon Brown on that one Mr Cunning.
100% agree.
Bloody hate the things, look ugly, status symbol keeping up with the Joneses and just trying to fit in.
And the rest of Europe and other governments too, infact is it not the case that co2 stills dictates some parts of vehicle tax?
Sounds like you are just making stuff up because you cannot afford one.
I'd like one because speed bumps are everywhere and pot holes. Also for safety. The bigger your car the safer you are. That's a fact. Ncap ratings are adjusted for smaller cars but the fact is an Aygo Vs a range rover only ever has one winner.

Until it turns over because you have to evade an object at speed.
But we won’t go there eh.

in addition to the rollover issues, don’t forget the impact on braking ability for carrying all that additional lard.
if the potholes larger than a small cars wheel base maybe an suv helps, otherwise, the impact from the hit is creating more energy to absorb/distribute in an suv.I'd like one because speed bumps are everywhere and pot holes.
if the crash zones on the suv absorb proportionately more energy then no reason the occupants will be harder hit, umh - if it rolls you might get more rolls, though.And an impact in a heavy car hurts way more than in a light one as there is a lot more momentum suddenly coming to a stop.
Mr Wood's outcome ... but apparently it boosted genesis sales.Until it turns over because you have to evade an object at speed.
It's like people have forgotten how to drive. Some of these 'yes but' arguments are daft. People will quite happily drive round in an mx5 but 'oh noes SUV's are dangerous'Yeah I regularly evade objects at speed and I regularly see SUV's sometimes as many as 5 in a row upside down on the side of the road.
Which is why you leave adequate space to the guy in front of you and actively scan for hazards and traffic ahead.

hurts who? The car having more mass means it slows down in a slower time meaning less injury. Ie other car, obstacles etc. physics means it a) can’t come to a sudden stop b) if it did it would feel no different to another car coming to a sudden stop.
