Of course not and even if they did, i'm pretty sure they wouldn't do an Mvan.

Those in the know will know its just a badge
Those not in the know won't know what it's supposed to be anyway.


What possesses these people ?

Who cares. It's his van, maybe he likes the logo or he's a really big fan and can't drive his BMW during the weekdays. Maybe he can't afford one but wanted the badge on his van.

Genuinely who cares about this, it is so low on the care factor it's ridiculous.

Anyway, I'd rather be the van driver than you, aren't you the person who is deluded about your own Golf?

This makes a damned good read. There's an alternative to a Subaru at last which you can hang your suit up in.
Went for a meal round some work colleagues of my other half last Saturday evening. They are quite well off, nice big house, Jag in the drive way.

Im not one for material items but its hard not to feel inferior sometimes when in their company...

Had the car valeted in the afternoon, pulled up in race mode for that exhaust burble on to their drive way, Bi-Xenon's glowing beautifully. Open the doors to the ambient lighting and puddle lights in the bottom of the mirrors, foot wells lit up nicely.

It just felt classy.

The couple come out and spent 15 minutes looking at the car commenting on how nice it was.

If i had still had the Astra VXR, i would have felt like a boy racer trapped inside a mans body.

The R can truly be all things to all people.

You're right James, i mean there are so much more serious matters we should be discussing first.

I was thinking the other day, they should make these a bit longer as it doesn't cover a proper a piece of bread.

Indeed most people probably double it and use twice as much meaning more sales for them but when suggesting the idea to Dairylea, this was the best reponse ever!

Thank you for contacting us with your idea for a new size Dairylea Slice.

I have seen vehicles from this company before and done a double take thinking it is something to do with bmw



Colors are different on your photo though, and of course it has the actual bmw 'M' badge, so no accident.

I'd rather have a Transit to be honest.

I thought it would make an interesting thread and was a unique one.

Not something that has been discussed 50,000 times on this forum before.....
