gazhull8474 Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 I think its funny as all the lads who take the pi55 drive BMW either 1 series or 3 series. I call it the ginger datsun just to keep them happy. And when they say its a hairdressers i always say i will never be late for a cut lol Quote
rtbiscuit Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 you have to remember that bmw drivers have to deal with the fact that everything apart from a steering wheel is an optional extra. thats why so few of them have indicators. Quote

KJ. Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 One of the problems with working in a place that can easily produce stickers... I walked round the front of my car so I didn't even see it and drove all the way home with it on there. I have to check my car for stickers everytime I leave the office now! Could be worse though, I'll be getting him back soon. Quote

geoff-r Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 mine doesn't have a nissan badge on it anywhere, so people always ask me what it is, and i always say its a 350Z But I bet you'll find one under the bonnet, along with a Renault one but seriously, the Datsun joke? We should all know our car's came from Datsuns, 240z are sweet So next time how could you possibly get irritated by someone calling it a Datsun? Quote
Sarnie Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Who cares what other people call it? **** them. Be proud of your car, or sell it. Quote
Ian Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 its not a renault engine, its a nissan engine used by renault The problem is because Clarkson said it, then it must be true Quote
