A Land Rover driver has been applauded for his priceless reaction to rude notes left on his car windscreen.
Adam Chester was visiting a friend in Harborne, Birmingham, and was surprised when he found several messaged wedged in the door and under the windscreen.
However, instead of getting angry, he just shared his experience with others on Facebook, reports Birmingham Live. One handwritten note read: "Do you really need a big, polluting vehicle to get around a city? Have a nice day!"

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.
Far from being angry, Mr Chester, who describes himself as environmentally conscious, said he understood the mystery fly-poster's view and 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.
Mr Chester posted the notes online (Nick Wilkinson/Birmingham Live)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' x."
