A real pimp mobile. It starts up and £ coins falll out the exhaust. As he drove it out the bay it sounded like BLING BLING BLING BLING BLING
17 inch wheels and torsion bar suspention with made in mexico stickers all over it.
The interior was white leather and had about forty cows loose thier lives for this pimp moby.
The rear view mirror has all the controls for the mobile phone. Really a flash harry motor.
The running boards are made of recycled plastic!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good old american build quality.
I'll have the engine tar, and bin the rest 
I've said it before and I'll say it again, why on earth would anyone have something like that over a Range Rover? Even then I still
despise people who own such things solely as status symbols.

Ahh the Escalade... about the most hideously over the top machines ever conceived... That and the H2 Hummer. What an unbelievable world we live in
where people think that it's a status symbol to drive these behemoths... You wouldn't catch me dead owning one of those. And I'm a
devout American consumerist!

I had a 1992 Cherokee for a couple of years and was very pleased with this car.
It could take more than a few bags of cement-tools and beer and still moving around in comfort,that is after the beer was consumed

Yesterday I had a football match in against a public school in north london, I don't thing I've ever seen so many flash cars in one
place.
One hummer H2, about twelve ferraris, a lambo diablo and three black escalades, one with those disgusting spinner wheels.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

About the escalade:
[Ali G] Yo, tha escalade is da mac daddy of tha bling bling, respect and mad props, big up to yo-self [Ali G]
Although, I must confess. How else could I get my donor car to the scrap yard to get that $80 of scrap money? (Hey, the donor was only $145)
That's right, I needed 7500 lbs of 1987 chevy suburban
Baught it for $900 to tow crap with (supposed to be able to tow 9,000 lbs)... 200,000 miles and the frame is rusting away, but the 350 engine still
pulls strong, they don't make em like they used to. Oh, btw, I absolutley dread driving it! It's gotta be at least 7' tall or so and
probably longer than 2 locosts. Only fun I ever had with it was one night coming back from delivering a car when I thought it'd be fun to lock
the hubs and see if it could drive up a steep hill and through all the shrubbery and saplings.....it did, with the empty trailer attatched...

Fair play, big SUVs and trucks do have practical uses, that's bargain towing capacity if you ask me.
You wanna tow a 40ft boat, you need a Ram or F350. You wanna take the kids to school, you want a Focus.
I got stuck in a school run jam again this morning. I was surrounded my MLs, X5s, Discos and even a spotless Defender with snorkel driven by a
30-something young mum. *Boggle*
