Default Misunderstood BMW drivers

Before getting the Beemer, I was a bit concerned about the public's view of BMW drivers; you know, lack of indicating, flashing the car in front whilst in the outside lane.

Well having had the car for a week, I can confirm that BMW drivers are not crap at indicating, they simply haven't got the hang of the indicator stalks yet, and as for those heavy handed with the full beams, they are simply adjusting the cruise control with the wrong stalk! (Appologies to the car I was following on the A3 this evening).

The image put me off them for ages.

Now I've had one for just over a year, I can confirm that I am now hated by most drivers, especially those in lame engined Audis and VWs... ;-)

Ian - your M3 is truly lovely.

I always indicate when driving one of our BMWs; Usually when I'm in lane 3 of the motorway trying to get the feejit in front to move out of the way

I was just about to book it in for another repaint then lol , on the BM forums , its amazing the amount of people both over here and the US who have tried getting an Estoril one built , but the factory won't do them , which in my eye's is shooting themselves in the foot , as it is THE M3 colour
