So when you complain, just take a look at what IS going to happen and consider what size engine cars you drive, the Crossfire is a large engined car here in the UK.
I'm afraid we American have no interest in catching up with you Brits. What with your government taking away your rights, guns, and not to mention the Police monitor everyone through close circuit video. Thats one place I would hate to see influence our politicians and Govmnt.
