where i work, weve got a contractor in at the moment... 23 yr old gimp who drives a BMW 325i.... and is very protective over it and thinks it is the best car in the world.. he just dont get it that a skoda might be faster and more powerful... he needs putting out of his misery.

ps, the stereotypes for BMW drivers seem to mostly be true with this guy!

Well, TBH, if I'd had a BMW 325i at 23 years old I'd have been fair glowing as well and I doubt very much that I'd have been disparaged by any comments from a Skoda driver.

That said, why would you want to make him feel bad by telling him what he's missing out on? He'll learn, as they say

Missing out on?! I think I know which car I'd have if I had to chose between the two Mmmmmmm - straight 6

Chris

Mmmmmmm - straight 6

& it is Right Wheel Drive rather than Feckinorrible Wheel Drive too

This guy rekons its just as fast as a new M5 too

He may be right - just point out to him that the Fabia is just as fast as the Veyron though - plenty of threads on here to back that up

BMW drivers are p r i c k s. well the ones I see on the road are. im sure some are very nice.

who cares about speed and how fast the car is...being a skoda owner/driver will make me a better person...if being a BMW driver turns you into a selfish w**ker then id rather drive a slow skoda.

Each to their own, it's the new repmobile and as such many are driven by young, arrogant salespeople - the same could have been said about Cav SRis and the like years ago.

When I looked at my Furby I looked at the 3 series but I really couldn't justify paying double for a car that (In my opinion only) does nothing better - and stupid as it sounds I really couldn't live with the badge.

Tinkerbell on here drives a BMW (i think) and she is far from being the stereo typical BMW driver, though i've never met her, i have spoken to her and she is very friendly and not up herself.

Plenty of deluded idiots drive Beemers, particularly the low end ones, but that doesn't make eveyone that drives one an idiot. In the same way I would say you are sadly mistaken if you think driving a Skoda will make you a better person - plenty of blinkered people with the wrong attitude also own Skodas

How old a BMW? A 1989 or 1990 325i would be quite nice if one could find one with less miles on it than starship enterprise. A nice one of those would be a car someone had spent some time and effort working on and appreciated the amount of effort that goes in to making it.

I assume a new one, if so, then yes, a nice car i'm sure. The sort of car you could have a conversation in a 90mph without raising your voice other than to exclaim "goodness isn't that M5 fast! He must have had it chipped!"

New advert that sums up the average Octavia driver .......

:rofl:

Put it this way. I save myself alot of money when driving the skoda so It makes me a much nicer person to be around

also like i said some are ok. I can only talk from experience:thumbup:

Hold on, I recognise that person......It's *****.

.... and is very protective over it and thinks it is the best car in the world..

it isn't just BMW owners that seem to act that way...:rubchin:

and as far as skoda ownership making you a better person, my brother is just as big a t**t as ever...

I wonder whether you have seen me then? You do go around with that rather large brush of your's tarring everyone, don't you?:thumbdwn:

I wouldn't class myself as a p***k, a w****r or even selfish for that matter, or are you just referring to the male drivers of BMW's?:confused: I, personally, like fast cars and driving them doesn't make you a bad person either.

It makes me wonder how many people you actually know who drive a BMW; perhaps you don't mix in those sorts of circles, having driven a 1.2 Clio and all that (I think my brush has just come out too )

This guy rekons its just as fast as a new M5 too

Tell him from me what a talented bloke he is too, to be able to talk out of his bottom is some achievement in it's own right

Has he driven the M5? There is no comparison, let alone it being as fast :eek:

Well said that lass

As mentioned before about what car people would choose between the two.. correct the beemer would be "the one" BUT because i aint an accountant... or contractor lol, and drive 80 miles a day, a beemer is a bit too rich for me. over the last week ive heard every skoda joke under the sun from him, and he actually refuses to park his car next to mine

its a 02 reg so think that makes it a E46? so 325= 190odd bhp altho his being the msport is chipped and has a turbo as well..... hmm, think he under-estimates my car knowledge haha

In my small amount of just over 3yrs of driving ive NEVER been let out by a BMW driver, male or female Never. And i can say that i beat a M3 off the line the other week. (he was trying too as he over took later on double whites) Maybe i surprized him. Back to the point though Who has been let out by a BMW driver???

i'll happily bet all 3 of my cars and the car that i'm buying next week to say that your fabia vRS cannot beat an M3 off the line if it was actually racing.( when i say M3 i mean a proper modern one not a knackered out old banger M3

Well i was surprised to say the least but it did, maybe he wasnt 100% ready for the lights but it did, It was slightly uphill too. Would this effect the M3 and it was a new one, had a posh blonde fake tanned bimbo in to match the tit! driving it.

very much doubt it, RWD and over 300bhp race bred car Vs diesel super mini.

he wasn't trying or wasn't ready mate.

Ill go with the 'he wasnt ready' for the Small super Hot hatched Vrs FABIA.
