...saw this today on Breakfast TV. It's been edited somewhat as Quentin really made the daft bint look stupid in the version I saw on TV! She didn't even know what a Mercedes S Class was!

Watched it too.... the anti 4x4 rep dropped a clanger live on TV and said it was about 'symbolism' / jealously.
Breakfast news presenter picked up on it straight away...saying 'so its not pollution or size its a class thing...
watched that linked clip and it and it has been edited..

Once again i emailed them to ask why someone running on 50/50 should be penalised and also mentioned, what about people who actually carry things in the backs of their 4x4's or have 2 or 3 dogs (that'll be illegal soon)??
Personally if i sold my Surf and bought a van, i would then have to buy another car, as no way my wife would want to visit her friends in a van.

Dunno if you remember it, but Clarkeson was doing a radio interview early last year (IIRC) about 4x4s etc shortly after he took that Disco3 to the top of the Scottish mountain. The environmentalist they had on really did his cause justice by opening his arguments saying that Clarkeson must have a very small man-hood if he felt the need to drive such big cars!

The truth is slowly coming out!
