I've just been driving through Birmingham and the number of yound kids who turns their heads to watch me drive down the road never ceases to amaze me. I even had one kid shout out "nice car mate" as one would expect a little ruffian in Mary Poppins or something to shout! It particularly amuses me as the S doesn't seem to invoke the same reaction as, for example, a Z4. My work mate has a Z4 and he recounts stories such as one van driver pulling up alongside at the traffic lights and giving the old "wanker" hand gesture for no reason at all. Is it a case of people being more jealous of a premium Bavarian brand, or actually the fact that we don't look like smug gits in our cars??

Generally all nice comments. Even had a policeman pull up next to me at a set a lights after looking the car over (in a nice way) he powers the window down and says nice car mate, but be careful. I say cheers as he powers the window up and lights change and off we go

With all the stress of the world today it makes a real nice change for folk to say nice things ,it dont happen enough.
It makes me feel that we have made the right choice!
