I suppose these vehicles stand out a bit on the list, so I wonder how many Mondeo Men are on it as well?

After all, if people who can afford luxury motors are taking advantage, then surely the less well off will have even more incentive?

Or is this mindset how these people got rich in the first place?

It was mentioned on TOP gear on Sunday night when the hamster read out all the vehicles, and how they where getting away with it.
FFS all TFL has to do is ask for there private hire insurance when they apply

The whole thing is getting a lot of publicity I think that Mr K will have to do something about it because you can bet on it becoming a hot election issue if he doesn't

I wonder if anyone has tried to register a tuk tuk yet :D :lol: :lol:
