Hi All
The other day I was approached by a female in her early thirtys who enquired "is that your car?......Very nice! She went on.... I had one of those ...a black one. I took it back because every other one I saw was being driven by old men. I traded it in for a Mini.... Lost ?5K on the trade in. The salesman said it was the first time anyone had brought one back for that reason" I was probably as speechless as the salesman.
Is it a female thing as the logic of this story escapes me..... or are we really all old men?

Is it a female thing as the logic of this story escapes me..... or are we really all old men? Lets be honest. Taking as a base the replies on this post, I would say that the majority of answers I saw here shows that the majority of members driving E60s are younger than the described "female in her early thirtys".
I really think 'MAK' that for sure we're not old men. It was just a lady with a bad approach
P.S. - Do you really think that old Men could work in the perfection with i-Drive????
Old Men go for the Mercedes... Not even Audi's now allow them in...
I really believe that the E60 is car for persons young in spirit, and the age of a person is just a mental thing...

. Life could be far worse, I could be driving a Mercedes Benz? :thumbsdown:
