In our old fen location every other house seemed to have a 4WD or people carrier... but at least with the design of mostly older rural houses they were parked down the side or rear and visually absorbed by the space in that area.
In the cul-de-sac we've moved to with 15 houses we are lucky there is currently just one SUV and that's next door where we can't see it from our place.
In the past I've voiced the opinion that works vans ruin the look of a street and SUvs can have a similar effect with the current trend for open plan frontages.
And don't get me started about the guy on the corner who's had the whole front pitch of his previously attractive house roof covered with ghastly solar panels.
