How to drive a BMW

[Ovenpaa]

Not so sure about BMW drivers these days as for a long while now I have been under the impression Audi drivers have stepped up to the task and are truly the assholes of the road.

Col;

As a guy how has owned 3 BMWs over the years,and currently owns 1 all I can say is jealousy gets you nowhere guys. Us BMW drivers pride our selves with the knowledge we can be an equal tit which ever car we drive, as Im sure you guys who drive ordinary cars can also

Personally I find BMW drivers very courteous...when I am driving a BMW LOL Actually BMW drivers ARE courteous..or is it sympathetic to those with lesser cars as by being courteous they can be smugly superior at the same time ?

Nowt worse than some old f@rt or woman driver in an eco car hogging the outside lane

I suppose that somebody, somewhere, thought Attila the Hun was courteous, too, Chuck!

I don't think the W stands for Werke anymore. At least Audi make it clear with a ring for each seat.

I always thought that the Audi was the BMW drivers other car.

Or Vice Versa.

If I am wrong then you can increase the number of arseholes on the road by adding the number of Audi drivers to the number of BMW drivers!

So basically Chuck what you are saying is that Audi and BMW owners/drivers have deep psychological problems, combined with low self esteem, strong feelings of inadequacy combined with a chronic ego condidtion and are basically dangerous nut jobs?


Well you have me convinced, such a hypothesis would explain what I see every day on the road from these drivers.

And you come to that decision HOW exactly? C'mon, there are nutters in all makes of cars...and by definition more so in mediocre cars because there are just more of them - mediocre cars that is...

I mean how much self esteem do people who own(ed) Ladas, Skodas, Ford Ka's, Nissan Micras, Fiat UNO's, Prius, and Lexus etc REALLY have..

When I was growing up in Canada it was Cadillac drivers who seemed to think they owned the roads and the rest of us existed on sufferance. Then in the 80s it was Volvo drivers. Nothing changes it seems, except the badge on the hood (or bonnet, if you prefer).
