To expect BMW drivers NOT to overtake on a (mini) roundabout?

Is it too much to ask? Or are ALL BMW drivers so arrogant as to think the world revolves around them (especially X5 drivers)?

I just want to buck the trend here and say that BMW drivers are tossers.

Ahh.... thanks... haven't been called a tosser for quite a while now...

what a sweeping statement... I'm not a tosser... a petrol head maybe....

Present company excepted of course.

hereiam · 22/04/2007 17:30

ginger- we do have some sensible cars- i have just got a Chrysler PT Cruiser for transporting children about (and its pink!)

its amazing what you can actually fit in a sports car! but i use the different boot sizes as an excuse to buy buggies!!!

nearlythere - a pink PT cruiser is definately not a sensible car!!!!! I think I like you very much My DH told me I could only get a mini cooper s if I could find a pushchair that fitted in it, silly man thought that would be impossible but the Zapp fits just perfeectly (although it really is a shitty pushchair!)

nearlythere · 24/04/2007 09:52

i beg to differ ginger- it is one of the most sensible cars i have ever owned
at least no-one has an excuse to ram into me, its not like they can't see me!!!!
i have buggies to match each of the cars!! i couldn't face the zapp- yes its shit!! so i got a spider to go in the boxster!

Gingermonkey · 24/04/2007 18:43

nearly there, that is so very true!!! I've never seen a pink one TBH, is it a standard colour? And what is the spider - I'm off to google it to see if it will fit in my very silly boot (bet it won't ).

nearlythere · 25/04/2007 10:16

no its a custom colour!! end of tax year pressie to myself!!! the spider is the mutsy equiv of the zapp but sooooo much nicer!

Gingermonkey · 25/04/2007 14:10

OMG, it's so cool! It reclines too!!!! How big can LO's be to sit in it? I need this info!!!! I'm going to measure my boot space and if it fits and babymonkey can sit in it for at least a year (til hes 2.5) I'm getting one!

nearlythere · 25/04/2007 15:27

its a bigger seat section than the zapp! i'd say easily fit a 3 year old!

Gingermonkey · 25/04/2007 15:50

I wish hubby would hurry up and get home in my car (I nicked his to go to the supermarket - a mini is not a sensible car for shopping!!!!) then I can measure it's boot space!!!!

nearlythere · 25/04/2007 15:52

omg- you need to get this buggy don't you!! you sound as bad as me!!!! good luck, have you pulled the dimensions off the mutsy site?
