Which is why you get the nonsense of people using Chelsea tractors to take
the kids to school.


The reason that happens is because stupid women feel safer in them.


I'm not sure they do. A neighbour's one was bought by the husband who
hardly ever drives it. His wife preferred her previous small estate car.

The alternative normal cars have just as good a range.


Most Chelsea tractors use a great deal more fuel than a car big enough to
take the kids to school.
