Agreed the X5 is perfect for the type of lazy, unknowledgeable, crass, aspirational, useless slags you mention.

"The only thing they are successful at is filling in a credit application form. Otherwise they would still be driving around in old estate cars."

another stereotype.....i have plenty of clients that drive similar cars with a similar image, i have few clients with any form of debt.

I think most people would consider the purchase of a £40k + car as being something to be proud of.
Then they need to get out more would be my suggestion. Talk about having small dreams.

.........and you'll find the one's with real money and successful husbands do still drive around in old estate cars.

Jade Goody the big brother winner drives an X5 or Cayenne, don't remember which but she's exactly the sort of person those cars were made for.

How can someone else owning a car annoy you? Get on with your own life instead

tiggs does seem to be getting personally offended and confrontational but whether it's for the sake of it I don't know.

I'm just playing the sterotype game.

other people's car choice doesn't annoy me either- It's amusing. Like stereotyping all skinheads as violent racist thugs, probably not true but a natural assumption. As I see it the only people getting annoyed are the X5 types.

For the purposes of debate and fun. It's something we all do and in this case the stereotype does seem to be born out by the reality in the case of the stay at home leech keep up with the jones's types Tiggs is talking about.

Wait until interest rates start rising, there will be a sudden glut of 'slightly used' gas guzzling 4x4s with dented tailgates on the market that nobody wants.
Nah, they'll just divorce their husbands and use his money for the car

Why would having an opinion like that make someone a tw@t? Surely they could only be said have a twattish opinion on that issue rather than being an all round tw@t, following your 'X5 logic'? You aren't guilty of stereotyping yourself are you?
Personally I don't have any real opinion of you other than the fact you don't argue your point very well on this BBS. You d1cK.

I'm sure some successful people do drive X5's. They probably don't define success as driving an easily achievable target like BMW X5 ownership though.
It depends on what you mean by luxury, whats luxury to you may not be luxury to others. Why did you buy a BMW? I'm sure there are plenty of cars that are as cheap if not cheaper to lease and run, have good reliability and build and just as entertaining to drive.

well, i personally think this debate has run its course...

i dont judge people because they drive a (insert make/model here), i judge them as drivers on how i see them drive it...as i would hope most people would do with me in my scoob...(apart from the grumpy old pr*ck this morning who honked because i overtook him perfectly reasonably on a 2 lane roundabout...!!!)

Because your opinion is vile and offensive. I dont own a BMW, dont have a stay at home wife and my kids all walk to school - i still feel your opinion of those that choose to live differently makes you a ****. and thats my opinion.

Jesus ******* christ- I didn't buy a BMW FFS try reading the thread before commenting.

.........and no I don't believe all stay at home mothers are leeches, I was thinking of the stereotypical fat old sow like Ray Parlour's ex-wife who does **** all around the house 'cos someone else does it, has a nanny and spends her time with other vile old dogs like herself discussing how to waste hubbies money while ******** the pool guy.......

You're welcome to it, personally, I don't think anything of you other than you're obviously pretty shallow and tend to jump the gun if you base your opinion of someone on a throwaway opinion expressed on some BBS.

a little back tracking then?

you have made constant sweeping statements and now you are narrowing it down to a single person? So you dont like X5's because Mrs Parlour has one?

I wouldn't know if Parlours ex drives an X5. She was just an example of the type of person you mentioned.
As for hate I don't hate them. I pity them and even more so the poor schmucks who fund them.

OK, so you only hate them when you're not talking to them. When you talk to them, you pity them? Simple!
