To think DH only very very slightly U for buying another BMW because our neighbour told him he was too common to own a BMW?

[Sneezecakesmum]

The new one is a convertible btw. A Z4

Haha

Neighbour thinks she is better than us and DH shouldn't be driving a car which is nicer than their cars!

She even made fun of him because he had a hole in his sock! She is a bit of a bitch tbh but I ignore it all for the sake of harmony

How did she know he had a hole in his sock?

I don't think they're posh cote. They're usually driven by Arab Playboys or new Russians. Neither of whom are in any way posh.....

I'm confused. We buy any car .com now

Are you my sister in law?

My BILs father is proper posh, as in old money blue blood type posh, and he drives one of those crappy Toyota Prius hybrid cars.

I don't think we live in the same city or even the same country, Serenity.

Bentleys, lamborginis (excuse spelling) and bugatti......sooooo ostentatious and most definitely only by Russian oligarchs !

I think a nice Jaguar is a proper 'gentleman's' car.

Hole in sock....used to be friends and went to mutual dinner party type meals!

am all confused

so, neighbour thinks bmw is posh? but actually they are hairdresser cars (which i thought were those cheaper convertibles but maybe bmw convertibles covers it too?)

neighbour thinks your dh is common? and your dh buys a bmw convertible to prove neighbour wrong? or right?

does neighbour fancy your dh and this is weird flirting behaviour? do you live on a new estate? are you all middle managers in retail? am v confused

I'm also interested in how she knew he had a hole in his sock.

You seem a bit obsessed with her.

Nah, I think your DH misheard.

The neighbour didn't say he was too common to drive a BMW, she said he was too common for driving a BMW

What difference does that make? Still the same people driving them.

Yes, you sound like a really harmonious type, OP.

I thought I'd seen it all but must admit I've never before come across a twat someone who bought a third car of a specific make because their neighbour said they shouldn't have that brand. Or his spouse who comes online to tell the world that they can buy a BMW, despite their neighbour's objections

I don't stare at people's socks when I'm eating with them.

Serenity - The point is that it is not the same people driving them.

Do you understand that different people live in your city/country and mine?

It's light hearted ! He bought a sports car because he likes sports cars.

Lighten up please

Yeah it is. Do you know how many buggatis there are in the world?
They're probs the same actual cars, transported between Knightsbridge and the south of France by the same people.

Blu I think we come from vaguely the same part of the world. I've moved now and we have a MUCH better class of drug dealer with no teeth because they take meth here

A dinner party where people walk around in their socks? That sounds bohemian, so quite posh, or could be a wife swap type of party,which may also be posh or very very grim.
Which was it OP?

How do you all know what cars drug dealers in your areas drive? [suspicious]

Sneeze enjoy your Beemer. I personally hate them! Nothing wrong with a sensible Passat or Focus.

She has seen his socks = you take your shoes off at home or in other houses = you are all very common.

Proper posh wear their shoes indoors. The car is beside the point.

Hth.

Noooo not a wife or anything else, swapping party. That went out in the 1990s and I never indulged

Just shoes off for comfort I think. So rude to point it out though. Poor DH he's had to learn to dress himself!

I kept my shoes, AND EVERYTHING ELSE on!
