It's going to be a long weekend....

[prprandall51]

Can't wait. I get my new BMW on Monday morning - I will be at the dealership at 9.00. This is the first time I have ever got in on the first day of a new registration.

Anyone else getting a "10" plate on Monday?

 

[Gridlock]

I am looking at maybe buying a few cherished numbers, but no car attached

AV10 BMW anyone?

 

[prprandall51]

Good plate - but it would look a little silly for me with only 4-cylinders

 

[Chattonmill]

I can now see why you have set your location to 'In Hiding'.......coming on here and crowing about buying a BMW
Unleash the lynch mob

Put the pitchforks back in the barn, boys. I am not getting rid of the MB just yet (though, now it's no longer under a service contract, it's a while since I had a sound night's sleep).

This is still unacceptable behaviour on an MB forum, it sounds as though the MB has been relegated to second postion.....behind a BMW

Carry on with the pitchforks boys

 

[prprandall51]

Not at all. I have such faith in the build quality and rust proofing of my venerable Mercedes that it is the MB that will sit out on the drive way in all weathers, whilst the BMW - a delicate and corrosion-prone flower - will live in the garage.

This gets worse.....BMW sits in a nice garage whilst the MB gets left to do what they do best....rust on the driveway
Forget the Lynch mob, this has just got much more serious.......time for a tactical strike....

BTW enjoy the new car......whilst you can

 

[prprandall51]

I will report back on Monday - let you know just how good my new arrival is

 

[renault12ts]

Did you say which model and spec BMW?

Let's just say that it's going to leave Chattonmill's AMG in the dust.

 

[renault12ts]

Trying very hard to think of something funny and derogatory to say...no it wont come.

So...an M5.

Edit: Just thought of one. How big is your....:bannana:

 

[prprandall51]

Yep

 

[jeremytaylor]

To counter this 'error' in the OP's way, one of our managers is going the other way - from a BMW 320 to a shiny new white C180K Executive SE. Should be registered in my company's name some time next week.

Hmmm in the dust.....By the time you have set it up to use the power a la R Hammond Esq I will be long gone

Not sure if my "Yep" has been interpreted correctly - it was a bit ambiguous
Sadly no V10 in my garage any time soon - only 4 cylinders. It does have a power button, though, to unleash the full power.

 

[Gridlock]

Dyson?

Carrots in front of both donkeys then??
