Age question

bigfriendlyg · 04-16-2009, 06:52 AM

Hi guys,

Recently the question was posted on the open forum regarding how old every 1 was.

I found this unfair as america seems to be crazy cars world where they give there 16 year olds cars most ppl save up there life 4............
(im still savin -white e92 335i)
I believe this is something to do with once you have household insurance anyone in the household can drive any car....

So UK lets know how are you are?

I'm not young enough to give a hoot what age other BMW drivers are.

My first car was bought for £75 nearly 3 decades ago

These threads tickle me, because I'm sure they are only of "interest" to people keen to congratulate themselves at owning a BMW in their 20s.

I'm not knocking that by the way, good on you.

I just turned 17 and Mum and Dad kindly bought this 330d for my first car.

If u continue to read on in the post u will see it just brings up lots of fun topics.... Its not actually that impressive to own a BMW at any age.... its how u got can be the impressive bit... if ur between 16-22 and own a bmw the chances are due to family money....

PeteJ · 04-16-2009, 02:25 PM

Well I was in the BMW garage the other day booking the car in for a service, and while I was there a girl which the salesman told me later was 16 years old, and she was getting a Mini Cooper S bought for her.... SHE CAN'T EVEN DRIVE YET!!!

I have no problems with rich parents buying cars for there kids, however at 16!
