AN Other is perfectly okay.

TBH I didn't put hours of thought into the thread but noticed a few recurring "themes" running through a lot of other threads posted. Some turn into classics, a fair few get ruined/bitter/nasty.

Nowt wrong with Mondeos. Decent cars in fact wink

So where do you see yourself on this list with an un-mapped 335d wink



biggrin

As for me, I daresay a combination of 1, 3 & 4. But I suspect not too many think my choices as desirable, but I know a few do at least. Niche, rather than mass appeal I suspect. smile

Well it's niceish but hardly set-your-pants-on-fire exotic. And most people prefer the 110 anyway wink

So a mild/lame version of three I guess.

I need another:

9) Pure troll who will identify a "victim" and set about finding as much as he can (never ever a she) via the internerd and then use it as "ammo." This person will never start threads. Will never admit to what he owns (usually nothing), never post any photos and is basically internet pondlife. At least three of these have popped up today - you know who you are wink

How cheap does it have to be to qualify for number 1?

To me my car isn't a shed as its still worth a couple of grand...but compared to most peoples on here it is definitely cheap.
