chelsea tractor การใช้

• The equivalent term " Chelsea Tractor " became prominent in the United Kingdom around 2004 to describe vehicles such luxury SUVs used in urban areas such as Chelsea, London, where their four-wheel-drive capabilities are not required and the car is believed to be a status symbol rather than a necessity.
• In the early years of the 21st century the Chelsea area experienced a growth in the popularity of large four-wheel drive cars ( so-called Chelsea tractors ), many of which were over the two-ton weight limit; it was estimated that one third of all vehicles using the bridge were over the weight limit.
• In London, where SUVs are known derisively as " Chelsea tractors, " after an upscale neighborhood in which they are especially thick on the road, Mayor Ken Livingston recently dismissed their drivers as " complete idiots . " Drivers report having rude things shouted at them by pedestrians, and a group called the Alliance Against Urban 4x4s has taken to slapping fake tickets on parked SUVs, citing them for poor vehicle choice in an echo of similar campaigns in the United States.
