BMW Drivers
In my experiance most BM drivers drive with their heads
up their own backsides.
My latest run in.......
I was staionary waiting to turn right at a roundabout, i'm clear to go so i set off(indicating i might add)
Next thing i see is a BM hurtling towards the roundabout from a entry lane prior to my exit. He slams on the brakes, then thinks he can make it out in front of me but then has second thoughts and brakes again. By this point i'm at a stand still and he is giving ME the finger...wtf!
Anyway i set off again and he's up my **** and the next thing he's overtaking me in a 30 zone right outside a school.
F'in ****.
I had the kids with me so i was extremely calm and didn't react but i'm looking forward to seeing MR silver 05 bm driver with his twin chrome exhaust pipes when i don't have the kids on board. Lets see if he acts the same when my 6' 1" 16 stone frame is stood in front of him
Rant over.............

lol i do understand what you are saying about this but i must say not all are like this, i owned 2 bmw's and drove perfectly well much like i do my scooby with the utmost of care and concideration, my dad also drives a bmw, i think people see it more because they are more aware that bmw drivers are like this where you can find this type of driver in any model of car including our subaru's. Not saying they aint out there, they are but they aint all bad.

Quite frequently there is a mobile speed camera unit around the corner from the school but the one night i really want it there its not
Now that would have been justice

I just make an assumption that everyone else on the road is about to drive like a total ****. 
Mind you... the occasional driver still manages to surprise me with their stupidity.

Have to agree with original post. Last week (Saturday afternoon) I was going round a roundabout to go right(3rd exit) when a 3ser BMW had to stop and give way for me on the 1st approach road. When i exited the roundabout onto a 70 limit road i accelerated gently up to 70-75ish the next thing I know the **** in the BMW is hurtling up my **** he must have been doing well over the ton. He then sits about 4mtrs off my bumper, so I pull over to let him past as am in no mood to show him up and am taking the next exit anyway about 400m away. As I pull over(indicating that I am doing so) he drives onto the central reservation bit so he can get past that little bit quicker then he floors it past me throwing up debris , as he is doing this I indicate to take my exit and the next thing I know this **** in the BMW is slamming on his brakes cutting across me to get into the same lane for the same exit. I think his Misses must said something along the lines of
" My what a nice blue car that is with the big thing on the boot"

yep, 3-series the worst. all tossers, never seen one who isnt.
think the most stupid was having overtook a 3 on a big piece of road, about a mile later in a 30 zone, doing 30, cars coming the other way, this **** flies up behind and overtakes me. people swerving everywhere, horns and lights going. to top it all, it was a woman in her 50s, with (I guess) her young daughter with her. ***.
as I say, 3 series drivers, **** the lot of 'em..
I guess 5 or 7 drivers aint as bad, because 'they've made it', whereas your average 3 driver has something to prove - otherwise they would have a different car.

I cannot stand BMW drivers, i've lost count of the times I've been cut up or had to slam the brakes on because of them. Bunch of tossers all of them, including my brother in law!

I think the BMW 3-series was the seventh best selling car in the UK last year - in fact its the top selling car in its market segment (outselling the Mondeo) - so there's an awful lot of them about. Most being company cars I guess. The worst types are the middle managers who get a 3-series and believe the 'Ultimate Driving Machine' hype and that they're a cut above everyone else.
Having said that, Impreza drivers have not exactly got a good reputation amongst the general public....

I think it's a bit of a sweeping statement to say ALL BMW drivers are tossers. I see plenty of Subaru drivers around my way demonstrating some fairly poor road sense & manners

I said most not all.
For the record boys and girls the **** in a bm that pissed me off was driving a 2005 5 series, however most 3 series drivers also have their heads up their own backsides

I think Clarkson said it best....
"Built by Germans. Driven by to$$ers"
But I also agree that some people in scoobys (usually young people I might add) drive like to$$ers too!!

You say BMW drivers but I think its any car with an engine above a 1.6 !
I find that the smaller car owners dont tend to be ******, were as the bigger the car the more "I own the road" type reaction seems to be common.
The new BMW and Mercs are ***** for cutting people up.. jumping queues and the like !

Also known as daz
Tends to be a mixed bag, i find the ford ka brigade to be the worst for cutting people up.
I did have a 330i touring try it on the other day but he didn't last long, and tbh i couldn't be bothered anyway.

Yesterday I saw one 5 series "block" a newer model trying to make an exit off the motorway, cleverly the lady in the newer model pulled alongside the "****" and ended up in the correct lane onto theroundabout.
Tidy move, not sure the ecilop would approve tho'.
**** decide he's got to get infront so cuts across her nose and brakes....
At the roundabout he cuts across my nose and returns to the inside lane.
**** !

P.S. I was in 25 bhp mini-bus full of kids so couldn't exactly put up a fight....

i used to drive imprezas , had 5 but now I have an m3 e46
guess that makes me a bad driver , hmmmm
I think a lot of peops on bm forums have seen same drivin from non scoob forum enthusiasts too
and as for 6 ft 1 frame and 16 stone , size dont mean jack
and someone out there will put you on your asse with that attitude,
and he may be 5 ft 2 lmfao
and how much of a tit would you feel then, esp in front of your kids
even better in todays society you may get yourself knifed or worse, even better for the kids fella but I have to agree that there are plenty of **** on the bm forums up there own asses , but that said there are plenty of chav **** ruinin the impreza marque as well !
sits back waits to be burned....like he cares....
