This prog is turning into a Anti 4x4 feature, hardly anything about the people who it's meant to be helping.

My God, I had to walk away before I threw my cup at the TV, BBC pretty much chose "Mr. and Mrs. Vain" and then got the "Green Peace guide to hypocracy and myth" to work from.

"Oh Mrs Vain takes her car through a ford, just like every other car can". Come with me Mrs. BBC bitch in your Merc car and the fords I'll take you through the only dampness between your legs will be the water flowing into it as I plod by in my 109 and watch you sink angry.gif glare.gif

Even new Land Rover converts can't resist the Land rover Badge and can ignore stupid arguments as to why they should be band. So good for them they are allowed to spend their money on what they like and not be forced to decide due to some stupid program.

Hey, good result despite all the C**p, they chose the 4x4, featured vehicles were a RR Sport & Merc Estate, didn't say for definite what 4x4 they chose but most likely the RRS i-m_so_happy.gif

Tough Luck all the Anti's tongue.gif hysterical.gif

really pleased they chose the RR in the end but the whole programme was typically crap BBC anti 4x4 rubbish.

Is 'Points Of View' still running?? (shows how much telly I watch!!)......... Maybe we should deluge them with complaints (after all it's our TV license that paid for the stupid programme!! - I want a refund!!).
