Wtf??!!!

Did anyone see the bogus product recall notice for Range Rovers and Dicsos that was put out by Greenpeace (sic) last year?

It was put inside Parkers used car buying guides, someone at work found on and put it on my desk, i'll scan it in and post it on Monday so you can laugh at their ineptitude. They made it look like an official LR notice, i'd like to konw if LR took any legal action on them.

Always had a good felling for greenpeace but not after this debacle, they sholud be going after reall polluters, after all I runon LPG, not for environmental reasons but financial.

Awesome - just printed it out to drop round to the neighbours!!

Might do a few extras for supermarket car parks then. Not had one yet, mind you I am a 6ft 1" 18 stone ex-rugby player with a flat nose and collie ears, even Swampy might think twice!

Right'o, me thinks its time to , oh, I don't know:
maybe respond in kind. . .

Any ideas (civil & non) to display ???
Think the plod might not be too impressed if we went for treehuggers (remains maybe) as bonnet / bars ornamentation?

I think this just about sums it up

I had a student give me some s**t about the effects to the enviroment that my car has, I simply mentioned to them that if they could afford a Range Rover (or similar) they would have one themselves!

And to f**k off before I ran them over!

you have got things wrong there dhse you should run them over then tell them to f**k off

Right, is there a good gear to be in when running these tree huggers down, low gear, low speed with loads of torque , OR high gear with loads of speed (going for the hit and run angle )

I myself would go for high gear, in the hope of getting one, then another, and another and so on and so on

got be in high gear bud they can bloody run fast

Prefer to engage in some education in accordance with the Recommended Daily User Allowance of electricity

yep, you guessed it:

ITS CATTLE PROD TIME!!!

A couple of doses of the ol'kickstart machine to recharge batteries for no good reason

This is the artist in me coming out, P*ss artist

hmmmm, what a stupid message bloody tree huggers riding round in their Citroen 2CV's thinking they are being environmentally friendly

The 2CV is, I believe (seen the figures for one, or two), one of the worst cars for pollution - next to the trabant, of course

This was the bogus notice posted in a Parkers guide

what a load of bollocks!! still, pretty funny I guess, wonder how much they had to actually pay to get it printed?? using more colour ink meaning more colour ink needed meaning more trucks delivering ink to the printing works etc etc... so technically, in essence they are destroying the planet that little bit extra by having more trucks on the road delivering more ink??

ok, random, smart-ass moment over...

Shackle a piece of skip chain round a tow eye, and drag the piece of **** outta the way, if I could only go forward, I would go forward and listen for the crunches. If it came to anything, I would give them some mechanical malfunction story.

I had one of those stuck to the Discovery, I found it on the back bumper when it had been in town. It was a bumper sticker that said some **** about SUV's kill, I sent them an email explaining why they were not SUV's and that RAV's were. I would love to catch one of these tubes in the process of sticking a sticker on my bumper.

Do they not realise that veg oil is enviromentaly friendly?

They probably think it's rendered animal fat considering the logic they apply to life

had something similar slapped on my disco when i was in town, even though it's covered in **** with a big farming sticker in the back (im a LR lover AND a farmer so they probably actually hate me even more). if they tried to stand in the way of my car id love to plant my foot firmly on the accelerator, then jam it in reverse and repeat a few times. go and **** off mps in their big jags and private planes if they have to

i just hope no one puts a sticker on my disco when my brothers in it.
hes a fookin certified psychopath.

If someone put that on my Rover, I would be cramming it back down their throat. Thats messed up.
