'5 Live' Money

Excellent interview on 5 Live Money this morning, by a chap called Mike Stevenson (from KPG or KPM?). It's all about the worldwide fall in 4x4/SUV sales predicted by all major motor manufacturers. He put forward an excellent argument about how this is all been done by emotion rather than logic.

eg Biggest selling SUV in Europe (Rav 4) has less emissions than a Mondeo or Polo

4x4's emit less than 1 cow

Interviewer couldn't believe his ears! Wink Rolling Eyes

You should be able to catch it again through the morning..... Disco 5 HSE Lux

Nice comments, now we just need to get the greenies to get rid of all the cows on the earth and we'll reduce carbon emmissions by more than we would by switching off all 4x4's! Bodsys Brake Bible
