The word is IRRESPONSIBLE,And it refers to youngsters who think they know it all.And dont think,before putting their brain into gear. Or do things they think make them look good,But only shows them for what they are. Idiots itisme |

I'm afraid it isn't just 'youngsters' who are guilty of this stupidity - there's an increasing number of drivers in the middle years who think they know better than the car designers and engineers. These people also the ones who probably have the arrogance to drive while on the phone despite the proof of how unsafe it is.

My TDV8 came to me (from a LR main dealer on the LR Approved scheme) with tints on all windows (except the windscreen). These are quite dark and appear to be an aftermarket film. I've wondered about removing the front driver and passenger side films but don't find, so far at least, that it restricts my vision in dark/wet weather. I'm wondering about asking a traffic copper to check the tint with the relevant device and then, if necessary, removing it. I've had the vehicle 3.5 years so far... 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

rrstdv8 i personally wouldn't ask a policeman to tell you if its illegal as you could get a jobsworth who might give u a nice 3 points and 60 fine for the pleasure, you say they are quite dark which would suggest they are more than likely illegal as even a light smoke tints on front side windows is illegal

Hmm, you have got me thinking now about my front window tints on my P1. Although it has passed several MOT's, they really don't look that dark to me. |

Without wanting to sound harsh it looks like you are using a bit of someone else's parking space. You wouldn't catch me doing that |

That's normal parking when we meet up to go out for a run. It's not my normal everyday parking tactics |

Totally agree, best way to avoid dings, someone once had the cheek to leave a note on my windscreen because I used two spaces, i wouldn't care either the car park was half empty.
