That's the problem with the lower class, they simply don't know when to stop moaning!

No he's gone again...........to lakeside car park- just cruisin' :)

The commentators are of course correct - we all drive the same way - even if we switch to other cars.

Just for the record I didn't chuckle at the harsh audi &/or owner related comments ;)

I suffer with the 2 BMW's thing, but as I keep the X in the garage most of the time it's not too bad.

Edit:

I read this thread before reading the article ( bit backwards me), what can I say?

How many of you wondered if he was referring to an X you know, until you read the reg started with X5?  Superiority complex, that's me :rofl:
