If "PP" means the chap who started the thread, then it was I. The couple, and people like them, don't suffer from personality disorder, they're just entirely taken with the idea of driving hugely impractical cars, 70% of whose abilities they'll never use on the typically small and overcrowded suburban roads that most of use most of the time. I'm almost as unimpressed by wankers who buy £350000 Ferraris and Lambos that can go 200 mph and can never take it (legally) over 70.
