The SUV market has exploded in the UK in recent years, over 1/3 of the total market is now SUV's - but far from all of them are 4 wheel drive. People seem to like the higher driving position and the fact that they feel more solid I think.
Plus they sail over speed bumps that have appeared everywhere over the past few years too
I’ve had that discussion with a few friends who have bought them, they all say they like the higher position and claim it is safer because they can see further ahead. I point out that because they have a higher car, if I am behind them, they have stopped me from seeing ahead so it is more dangerous as I can only react to what they do. Nothing worse than being behind a 4wd which suddenly stops because they haven’t noticed a bus that has stopped right ahead of them.

The you're following them too closely.
If you arent a sudden brake away from death are you even driving?

I believe words to that effect are included in the new theory test.

Had a Range Rover right up my arse going over speed bumps the other day, I ended up just going over the speed bumps slower just to piss the fella off even more, massive car with a massive tool driving.
You haven’t seen the size of some of the monstrosities they drive over here.
I’m not worried about going into the back of them, but if I had a clear view of the road ahead, I would be able to see a bus up ahead and safely make my way into the other lane in plenty of time, rather than having to stop and not being able to safely change lanes.

The market for hatchbacks on stilts has exploded. Ground clearance needed for parking on the kerb at the school gates apparently

Toyota Yaris, 57,000 miles on the clock, 14 years old. As it breezed through its MOT again, the guy said Mr Gonetomorrow, this car is bomb-proof. Me so happy, me could cry.
