I'm not sure

By suggesting buying something, for 16k, is not unusual in the depths of a pretty awful recession, well....

There are lots of people struggling in the UK. Flying IS elitist, it just is. Trying to pretend it isn't is like Southampton FC trying to pretend they are a premiership force.

Money and poshness are not linked imho. I know lots of people who are "posh" but skint. I, myself, am a bit of an "oik" but yet relatively wealthy. Wayne Rooney is an excellent example of this!
