Ok questions for you:
If the car had been a Vauxhall Corsa, would the BBC have reported it as small city car crashes into bungalow?
If the car had been a Ford Mondeo, would the BBC have reported it as family saloon car crashes into bungalow?
I think the answer to these would be No.
So why report it as four by four crashes into bungalow? Make me
When my mother's neighbour drove into the lounge of a house via the front wall in her small car (I think it was a small Toybus) and nearly killed herself it made the local rag, but not the Beeb. A year or so later she repeated the process (on a different house) and again only the local rag cover the story (Three months on and she is still in hospital with lots of broken bones which is "not good" for an eighty something year old).Rob Smith
