Hehe lol at the Anti BMW culture !

I forgot about 4 x 4's. These are the worst, people only buy them as some sort of statement, like "Look at me, I have a 4 x 4", PATHETIC!!

And yes, women always seem to be on the mobile when driving them! Cringe!!!!!!

I'm not anti-BMW, in fact I really like some of their products, I just like laughing at nobbers who drive underpowered 318's and wish they were in M3's- almost all of them have got the something to prove attitude.

Did you ever see the "carving" board they made?




No seriously there are loads of great BMW cars. In the interests of balance I'll name the usual suspects

M1, M6, M5, E30 M3, CSL Batmobile and there are many, many more.

I just hate underpowered RWD cars like the 318i, probably 'cos I had one as a company car for a while I did my level best not to drive it like a nobber- unlike almost everyone else I met driving one!

Nacro,

I agree with you that it's not necessarily the cars, but the ********* who drive them. Although I do think that on the whole BMW's are overpriced for what they are? Still they've got the "image" so they can name their price I guess.

You're right of course the 316/318 does seem to bring out the worst in a lot of people presumably as they realise that a good perecentage of the car's price is for the little badge on the bonnet/boot. I wonder what percentage of people driving them ever test drove them prior to delivery - not many I would think. Serves 'em right really.

Thumbs down

Didn't realize that wearing a shirt and tie turned you into an a**hole. Some of us have to wear them for work, and I'd like to think that they don't compromise our driving ability or mean that we're yuppies.

Strange ideas some people have.

Not all scoob drivers wear Burbery baseball caps and trainers.
