Land Rover driver baffled as rude note stuck to windscreen of car

A driver of a 4x4 car was left shocked after offensive notes were attached to his car.

Adam Chester was visiting a friend and left his Land Rover Discovery parked, but was left baffled when he discovered the rude notes wedged in the door and under the windscreen in Birmingham.

One handwritten message in the door of the 2011, three litre engine diesel motor read: "Do you really need a big, polluting vehicle to get around a city? Have a nice day!"

Another black and white card said: "Do you drive a Jeep, 4X4 or Range Rover in the city ? You could be entitled to free penis enlargement therapy on the NHS." There were images of the models and a number which goes to voicemail also on the card, Birmingham Live reports.

However, Mr Chester, who describes himself as environmentally conscious, said he wasn't angry and even understood the mystery fly-poster's view, adding he was grateful no damage was done.

The 46-year-old said: "I'm all for people having an opinion and being allowed to protest.

"The oceans are rising, climate change is worrying, we have to be aware but it needs to go higher up the chain. Is the government doing enough?

"They didn't cause any damage to the car. If there was damage to the car, it would have been a different scenario."

Mr Chester said he has lived all his life in Harborne without any issues but has since moved to Bearwood with his partner. He also has a property in Spain with solar panels. He posted the cards on Facebook where another woman said she had received the same note and a man said he heard of tyres being let down in Dickens Heath.

One said: "Some people have way too much time on their hands."

Another wrote: "Leave both messages inside the car with answers for tomorrow. On the small one, write 'Yes', on the large one write 'Already done'".
