Default Why associate 4x4s with 225g/km?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/5075722.stm

Cars can "guzzle" (emotional term, buses "guzzle" more, as for planes)
and not be 4x4s, 4x4s can come in far under the 225g/km figure. Why
does GBrown's media spin get taken on so easily? There is straight
simpleton {4x4 = 225g/km} propaganda at work here which I don't
understand.

A pal's Land Rover is 4.1 litres, thirsty devil and exempt from the
Kengestion tax. I can't find any feedback address for the above web
site to rant at.
