[#833536]

Hello to you, X6 owner, saturday night in llanberis.

as my cronies and i, alighted our respective vehicles, having been for a Stonking pizza and a pint, at the pizza and a pint pub on the..... west[?] end of llanberis, we wandered passed one of them there new fangled X6s

"how silly" i say

"i agree, its a jumped up 1 series surely?" says another

"i would like a car as awkward and uneconomical as a 4x4 please, but would like no bootspace whatsoever" cooed a third.

as said fellow pulled off, i also happened to remark "and an automatic too, what a fanny" (as it was one of those stickless waste of spaces)

we smiled to ourselves, however as he REVVVVED off down the road and flicked his angry fingers out the open window, we were forced to crease over with laughing.

oops, probably wouldnt have been so rude if we'de known his window was open.

tee hee!

......perhaps you had to be there? but thought i would share anyhoo

Probably also wouldn't have been so rude if you could afford to buy one.

Or maybe should you say - "Do you or you or your friends involved in this hilarity drive a £50,000 car that is owned by the bank until they pay off the monthly £500 for the next 5 years?"

ahahaa!

really?!!!!

is being able to afford a 50k car something to aspire to?
nay, being able to afford it, the ACTUALLY buying it, rather than spending it on something a bit more interesting?
praps im not bothered enough what people think of my bank balance?
cause if i had 50k i wouldnt spend it on a flash car, and if i WAS spending 50k on a car an X6 would precisely at the bottom of the list*!

*bottom of the list being based on, i CANNOT think of a car i would choose it over, seriously, i would rather have a fleet of 50 kia prides.

seriously!

Were you - perchance - on a school trip?

The first line I understand, the second appears to be nonsense. Perhaps the owner finds cars interesting. I realise you may find this hard to believe but some people actually enjoy spending money on stuff other than playing with bicycles. Did he buy it with your money - no, well stop being so judgemental then.

Well I guess it depends where it is on your list of aspirations.
If it's before the aspiration of being happy and fulfilled then I'd suggest someone's priorities have been skewed.
If someone thinks the aspiration will aid happiness and fulfilment, then I'd suggest medical help 🙂

lollers!
touched a nerve?
had one nicked?
or been turned down for a loan for one?!

very defensive here Gary et al.

i LIKE being judgemental.

Perhaps the owner finds cars interesting

and buys an X6? pull the other one!

Were you - perchance - on a school trip?

pretty much, we didnt get into electric mountain in the end though sadly 🙁

I fail to see the connection nuke, is the owner scrapping the car, do we know if it was bought new. No we don't so shut up then. Unless of course you actually have something relevant to say.

I'd love to hear how you think destroying a wedding dress that could have been re-used has anything to do with someone acting like a nob. I think you've possibly got the wrong end of the stick on both counts.

Go away, reread my posts (if you really must stalk me) and come back with a valid answer.

[i]and buys an X6? pull the other one![/i] One mans interesting is another mans boring.

Seems to be a case of creating a niche market where none exists, then find people willing to blow a large amount of cash to have the latest trend.

All the 'off-road' and 'cross-over' cars are solutions to non-existant problems.

IMHO 🙂

youve totally got the wrong end of the stick gary.

it wasnt a comment about his car at all, we were pretty much being bitchy 12 yr old girls, i was commenting on how it was quite funny that our 12 yr old girl bitchery enraged him enough to act in the way he did.

couldnt you have just shrugged it off as childishness?

It takes all sorts to make a world............

However, an X6 is a crap car as Olly's crew announced.

If you need a tank, a hummer would be more practical or a landy.

Myself? i am waiting till they bring out the car from Captain scarlet, the one you drive sitting backwards.

Blimey - there's some right stroppy people on here!

SO basically, some people had a moan about something they saw, not realising the owner of their subject was in the vicinity & he wasn't best pleased and gesticulated so......
.....and........?! I think it's quite amusing. Who hasn't done that - talked about something and then realised that the owner of what you are talking about is right there.....

"that Meta 5 is a pile of toilet, the frame's crack left, right & centre"....."by the way, what do you ride"........."erm, I've got a Meta 5".........."erm, oh, well they're not that bad"................

"cor, she's a bit of alright".........."she'd get it"......"yeah, I bet she loves it"............"erm, that's my 14yr old daughter you're talking about"........."erm"...............

that kinda thing.

Olly I think you'll find I have exactly the right end of the stick. I wouldn't buy a 4*4, I don't like them personally, and my posts were referring to your immaturity. Perhaps I'm too subtly for you.

I’m also a bit confused that you find it unusual that he gesticulated at you, I’m sure many people would do the same.

Another ‘this is hilariously funny, but isn’t really funny at all’ posts.

I could afford one. I haven't got one tho 🙂

Can think of loads of way nicer cars at that price range. Even ones made by BMW.

What a silly thread.
But my 2p the X6 is a rather pointless vehicle & I can think of plenty of £50k cars Id like. There Im well & truly sat on the fence 😈

can I just say I have no idea what an x6 looks like but I do not aspire to own one or any other £50 grand car. I really cannot see how anyone would want to spend more than half that on a car. I suppose I wouldnt mind having a spare 50 grand though, but my life would have degenerated to complete tedium if I thought spending it on a car was a good idea.

[i]I really cannot see how anyone would want to spend more than half that on a car.[/i]

Perhaps there are a lot of people out there who think spending £25k on a car is as crazy as you think spending £50k on one is. It's all relative to what you've got.

My point was that no its not relative to what you've got, I've never paid more than a grand for a car, but have bought bikes that cost much more.

Being [b]able[/b] to afford one, well yes.

But [b]actually owning[/b] one? No, definitely not.

Talking about expensive cars

I wonder how many new cars in that price range are actually bought outright and are not on HP?

not many I guess....

think of an X5, make it a bit bigger (i think?) then take away the "mediochre" space in the back, and replace it with less space than in a saloon (an utterly pointless shape of car)

then have the AUDACITY to call it a "sports activity" vehicle.

i guess if your sport is golf you COULD put the clubs over the back seat, i doubt you could get a person in there?

FWIW, If you've any sense & you were pricing up a new ride you'd soon realise that leasing is the ONLY way to drive a car worth >£25K.

Does being able to afford a 50k car automatically fill you with a deep respect for everyone else who can afford a 50k car? It might make you a bit more carefull about speaking your mind when you see one incase it's one of your golf club buddies but other than that I doubt it.

Would a 50k sports car have illicited that response? Doubt it. Would a 50k luxury car have illicited that response? Doubt it. Would a 50k 4x4 have illicited that response? Doubt it. It's like the automotive equivalent of some late night JML infomercial - It's a Hammer, it's a screwdriver, it's a chainsaw - it's a HAMMEREW SAW!!

When BMW were designing surely they had this man in mind as their target market

[img] [/img]

The kind of people who buy X6s would probably pay their local BMW garage 50k to fist them if them they thought it would impress the neighbours. It must be one of the stupidest most pointless cars in production today, why not just take out a full page add in a newspaper with a picture of your face and dick head written under it?

There are some paranoid overpaid middle aged ****s on here alright.
