Long time lurker, just saying hi

[B0bman]

Hello all

Been lurking for years - should've joined up a long time ago so finally done it! Looking forward to having a chat with some likeminded folks!

For now Happy Christmas and New Year to you all.

Bob

Welcome Bob, just a quick survey before we let you in: -

A, Can you spell?
B, Do you find the idea of a chipped 535d funny?
C, Do you drink Red Bull
D, Do you own an MX5 (or plan to in the near future)?
E, Do you like Garlick?

Thanks

335d....

As it happens, I drive a 330d! Been around here long enough to know that, even if double mapped, it couldnt stay with the almighty 335d ;-)

Really sorry but I've only been on here for a few months so what is that joke about the mapped 335d about? (please don't hurt me!)

There was a poster with a mapped 335d who would bang on about it mercilessly, how it's such a super-duper car etc. Thus, if you want to refer to a car as fast, you must declare it to be a 335d-beater (or just call it fast and stop wearing out already-tired clichés)

[C2james]

Ok thanks.

A PH member called DX335D (or something like that) who was a little too vocal in his enthusiasm for said vehicle. It lead to a good amount of piss taking before he left.

It ceased being funny shortly after, but has become a cliche used for the basis of all fast car comparisons.

That sounds right.

It was on his personalised plate I think.



Edited again, I've missed the point.

Welcome OP!
