4x4's are so intimidating and have no place in suburban Dublin.

    It boils me when I see people using large 4x4's in south Dublin dropping kids off to school. Most of these 4x4's have and never seen dirt in their lives and will never draw a trailer. There should a tax rating for these jeeps pending on justification.

    I agree. Especially given that many of the so-called 'off-roaders' can't even go off road at all (BMW X5, Jeep Grand Cherokee, etc., as proven on Top Gear).

    Materialistic image is everything now. We can thank the Celtic Tiger for that. :rolleyes:

    So ...somebody driving their kids to school in an S-class Merc, that's ok? Or how about in a Transit van? Or in a Ferrari ?
