You know the funny part, these morons don't even seem like the actual owners of the vehicle or the rich people.
These are some illiterate chaps who are from the same village as the actual owner, jin ko maalik gaon say utha kar apna mulazim lay aya hai on 30k PKR a month, just to be a chaprasi at their mansion in the city.
I've often found that these people are often in more 'aakar' than the actual owners.
I think a lot of people confuse the word with "middle class" the word has always had a pejoritive conatation for the wealthy NEET class (Not in Education. employment or Training).
You hit the nail on the head.
The elite class in Pakistan cannot be grouped in one big bunch.
The doctors, CEO's of tech companies, businessmen, educated lot, they are the elite as well but do not behave like this.
It's the naye paisay walay log, the property dealers, the transport businessmen, those sort of people who got wealth through questionable means. (No offence to anyone who is in property and is clean, although the probability of finding anyone is pretty low).
I have some relatives who are filthy rich through medicine, and they were in the market for a new vehicle. Someone told them to buy a Land Cruiser. Their response was 'No, that is what's used by real estate people, we don't want to be associated with them'.
Aap ko baray aram say tarbiyat ka pata lag jata hai, and those who got money through sleazing or through hard work.
Yes nothing will happen. Chao panni and cups of tea, case in point:

Fucking Narnia
I went to the police lines in Pindi once (the one in front of Jinnah Park) for some work.
There was some officer there whose exact rank I have forgotten, but he was around the Lt Col/Major level. The guy was wearing an Apple watch, had a 16" Macbook on his desk, had some leather dress shoes in his office, and was holding an iPhone in his hand!
The state of government officials in this country is shocking!
