I’ve owned 3 Smarts and currently own an iQ for city use, but do sometimes park my FFRR in town when en route or retuning from long business journeys.

Idiots! Could cause unseen damage to the structure of the tyre with life threatening consequences.

Eco-fascists.

They are probably people who are on specialised Facebook / WhatsApp / other groups where everyone all agrees with each other. Facebook / Instagram / Twitter / YouTube then recommend to them other content with which they are going to agree. This leads to a positive feedback loop where they are convinced they are right and they have the only correct opinion; they are not recommended anything that might challenge their views.

Not quite as bad as the animal rights nutters or some other groups, but getting there.

When you next park your car, leave the engine running at a fast idle...

So if they are bending down next to my car trying to let the tyres down and I accidentally drive over them then that should be fine? Asking for a friend obviously Whistle

My sister's pile of Censored Y-reg Corsa that's covered in a mixture of pealing green paint and yoga stickers has 2/3rds the fuel economy and also a higher emissions output than my 4.4 litre V8 Range Rover.

Narrow-minded jealousy in my view.

I believe the same can be said of our 2014 petrol Mini Cooper S versus my EU6 SDV8 FFRR.

Although not the peeling paint and stickers. Laughing

I'm not sure in which world letting down someone's tyres is going to bring them round to your worldview?
