The only problem I had was in a new cayenne when somebody spat at it
That could be because
A) I was bumped up on kerb
B) It was a Porsche
C) it was a 4x4
He pissed off when I told him if he got a proper job he could probably afford one too, lazy twat. I think this helped him bond with me!!!

Only had one issue in over 7 years...................Some bloke on a bike wearing a face mask shouting a green message I can't recall - perhaps he sounded unclear
because he had the mask on as he disappeard under the front wheels[/quote]
Just corrected that for you AW8

Hmm........that would have stopped him repeating his little outburst

Nah, I just got really pissed off by all the green anti-4x4 bull
being spouted at that time by a few folks in my former workplace and decided to counter it with the unpleasant (for them) truth!

Had loads of abuse over the years as I have driven /owned a 4x4 for longer than I care to remember. >:( Now I tend to park as far as possible away from the nasty brigade or at least between similar car models if possible! Plus am happy to send the abuse straight back in the direction from which it comes......
Luckily the 4.8 is quite a commanding presence on the raod, especially a blingy-type Le Mans blue one, and the wake of smoke when you boot it from a standing start is enough to choke lesser cars and their envious occupants! lol
