[Ari]

Just came across this used car description (and yes, this is the whole list of the speciall features).


[i]
2 speed adjustable intermittent wipers with wash/wipe function
Electric front and rear windows with one touch/convenient open/close function
Green tinted heat insulating glass
Heated rear window with automatic switch off
Anti-lock brake system
CBC - (Cornering brake control)
[/i]


Two speed wipers, wash/wipe, tinted glass and a heated rear window! Where do I sign..!?

So that's what a base spec BMW is like!

Clearly, a lot of thought and effort went into that advert. Certainly getting good exposure now

To be fair, on the left is a selection of menu's with much more info listed.

So there is. Although in some ways that makes it worse as there are actually some things in that list that are vaguely interesting, like auto dimming rear view mirror, on board computer, air conditioning and so on.

Clearly whoever drafted the ad thought a heated rear screen and two speed wipers were more enticing however.

Oh wait, no that's a description of a car that's a bit like the one they're selling, of which some bits may or may not be relevant.

It does make you wonder doesn't it.

It's just a cut and paste from the BMW website. Really worth an thread?

[Ari]

What's going on with the formatting on this thread?

It has more 'special features' than my car.

[Ari]

Only just, according to the initial list.

[guru_1071]

to be fair, my classic mini has none of those features!

my 'rear screen demister' is a long bbq fork with a sponge jabbed onto the prongs, i can wipe the rear window when im sat in the drivers seat

[Ari]

Indeed, were it a classic Mini it'd be quite an impressive list.

I'm inclined to think that it wouldn't have taken a lot of effort to find something rather more enticing on a 3 Series BMW however.
