personally i think anyone that drive a BM is a c*nt (well most of them drive like one)

and IMO the only good thing BM have done recently is the *35d (twin turbo derv) other than that i'd never ever consider getting one, audi do it so much better, and audi indicators work

For the money ridge I can get a much much nicer bimmer than an A4 and the Bimmer looks much nice imo.

I know what you mean about the impression about some BM drivers be cock munchers, but to say all of them are is harsh imo, several of my mate have one not to mention my old man.

if you get a beemer you can have soal use of the overtaking lane and its permissable not to indicate. in fact if you did someone might think you stole it as you are not "down with the beemer crowd"

330d all the way though.  :grin:

unfortunately its a sterotype that they are stuck with, because everyone notices the tw@t in the BM that does indicate or constantly flashes their lights behind someone, but its very rare you actually see someone driving a BM in a courteous fashion.

true you can get alot of BM for your money these days, but i think thats down to the fact that the brand is starting to lose its status, whilst they do make solid cars, i personally would never own one.

how come you want to leave the VAG fold too?

My plan was always to get the 1.8T when I turned 21, but I never realised what sort of calibur of car I can actually get now. The 330i I can insure for £860 and the 323 Ci above in silver I can get for the sort of price as the 1.8T (about the 600 - 700 mark). Im still in two minds and dont know what to do. Them Ci 3 series really give me wood and for the same (maybe a little more but nothing major) sort of money as the 1.8T I would be looking at.

A lovely 2.5 stright six really wouldn't go a miss if im honest !
