Dont let the haters get you down Char,I get the same kind of grief cos of my car and how it looks,EVEN ON OTHER BMW FORUMS I got pages and pages of abuse because of it,really got me down,hence why I dont use them very much now,if at all,even tho the management has now changed on both !! I regularly get comments and get called a gangster,drug dealer,McDonalds car park warrior (on a BMW forum) and worst of all and the one I hate the most....A CHAV !! As for the standard BMW taunts I usually just agree with the people that say them (as this usually annoys them lots).....yes I cut people up,yes I speed and drive too close on the motorway and occasionally flash people out the way (altho they normally see me coming and move anyway,lol),no I dont let anybody out/in (unless another BMW driver) and no I dont indicate (indicators are an optional extra on these cars,lol)!! And there are several reasons for this..... 1. Its all part of owning a BMW 2. Its all part of the 'Unwritten BMW Owners Handbook' 3. Its because I own a BMW 4. You dont cos your a peasant !! Hope this helps :)
