3 Series Drivers

CHG · 11-08-2010, 12:53 PM

Having a quick chat at work today trying to find the average age of the 3 Series Driver (Not M3) and made a bet! I'm reckoning it's around 35

I'd be unbelievably grateful if you could just click the relevant age bracket

No M3 owners please, as this is particularly aimed at the 3 Series Owner!

Cheers Guys

I hit 51+ as I went to click the vote button so that's one less for that group.

I'm firmly in the 26-30.

Edited for you Mod

Flawed poll. If any US members vote will Influence the results and give a false indication of UK bimmer owners.

Considering most of them Re 16-18 with BM's

35 years old, 335d with an extra bit stuck on the back.

Two things here....

From - To - Years
17 ―― 21 -► 5
22 ―― 25 -► 4
26 ―― 30 -► 5
31 ―― 35 -► 5
36 ―― 40 -► 5
41 ―― 45 -► 5
46 ―― 50 -► 5
51+ ―― 155 -► 105

1).Your subsequent analysis will be difficult with 22 to 25 sample being around 75% of the majority of the others.

2). Why no 51 to 55, 56 to 60, 61 to 65 etc.

Ahem.. I may be in one of those groups....
(The grouping should be electronically limited at 155)

CHG · 11-08-2010, 03:01 PM

Thanks for that guys! I know they're a bit out, and it ends at 50, but it's purely for information!

As for the M3 Paul, it's a 'special' 3 series only young'uns could dream of!

Voted. Not disclosing my age (that would ruin all of Helen's fantasies

)

Sodding 38, getting nearer to the 4-0

I feel bastard old here looking at some of the replies!

When BMW drivers get older they buy Mercs instead.

If you work hard you can get the car you want early on in life.. No reason to feel old compared to me, and no reason for anyone to be surprised that there are some young people replying in this topic..
