Buy a Range Rover:

If you are easily offended, don't click on the link above. This is very funny and does sum up the mentality of the modern poseur whose highway "weapon of choice" is the modern Range Rover.

Enjoy.

I live out in the sticks, and get p**d off with Range Rover drivers who won't put a wheel on the grass verge to get past, don't pull into passing places, and find it so difficult to reverse 20 feet into one. It's noticeable how their attitude changes when they meet me in my ancient Mitsubishi 4x4 with the bull bars! I'll get right off the road in it, if necessary, for an ordinary car. But for a Chelsea tractor, I expect at least 50/50. My sister in law's partner is an ex army mechanic, with lots of experience of LR products. He reckons all the more recent products have built in obsolescence and money points that ignorant owners can be blamed for and expected to pay for repair. Lovely things if you have a spare car and deep pockets. Love that video, BTW.

"Don't settle for a Ford Focus; be the toad on the road - buy a Range Rover. Give your neighbours a real reason to hate you"

LMAO.
