As many top psychologists will tell you (I'm not one btw): "attitude drives behaviour".
So when I ee said BMW driving in said manner, i daren't think what their attitude is!
Exactly.
BMW make fine cars from what I've seen. But well overpriced for what they are, based on e39d touring,(touring means estate by the way, the w**kers) it sounds not like a d, turbo spins up nicely, the car gives a good impression just listening to it drive past, but it fails in the same areas omegas do, wayward handling, cam cover leaks for the same reasons on the petrols, sensors and bushes, of which there are twice as many, all fail the same.
So why pay extra for the same? Iirc, e39 owner said mine has more power than his 3.0.diesel, which he paid 21k for! Why? Because of the badge, image(well he got that wrong as well) and thought he was getting more car for twice the money. Ho loves it as a car, but curses at it 20 times more than I curse at mine, plus I have a large lump of cash still in the bank.
He does not drive like a cock by the way, unlike most, so I still think he has the wrong car....obviously.
