No more M police!

OK am I being a bit thick here? Whats this M Police all about My Old Girl has //M badges on the steering wheel, scuff boards, gear knob and wheels. I am likely to get whipped with wet nettles at the next meet for this? :) (oops sorry wrong one o_O)

My understanding is that anybody found adorning their none ///M Zed with ///M badges/stickers etc shall be black balled and sent to a Russian Salt mine for 40 years. Oh, and beaten with nettles. I'm off to get some ///M stickers for my MV3's =))
 
On an non factory ///M Roadster you can have badges on the steering wheel, gear knob and wheels (assuming the wheels are those which class as MVx).

To be honest, I don't give a monkeys but some get a little warm under the collar... ;)

Well as I've bought an //M and still have the Old Girl, does this mean I have to whip myself with wet nettles? Doesn't seem much fun ;)

Quite a few factory fit or option parts have ///M badges on like wheels, steering wheel etc. That is fine and common - its only when you badge the car itself as an ///M and have it masquerading as something it isn't is when some people (those that actually have ///Ms) get upset. I can understand that thy've paid the going rate for the privilege.
Real M's are easy to spot - not just the four tails pipes - they're in front of you and getting smaller as they bolt for the horizon. :whistle:
I'm sure someone will be collecting nettles just in case =))
 
We usually have a nice crop of nettles that grow taller than our fence, if anyone would like some ......................................... ;)

Tony.

ps. They actually belong to Neil who has the fishing lake next to us, but I don't think he'll mind.:thumbsup:

I can just imagine the conversation, "just off to Tony's to get some stinging nettles" "OK, tea is at 5pm, don't be late".

Or perhaps something less savoury may be the reply :wideyed:
 
Well we have an meet on the 24th - so we can find some nettles, give them an good thrashing - and throw them into the lake - to sooth the sting - and finally do some do-nuts in the car park with there motor...

Seems that almost all new Beemers are plastered with M badges these days.... the client side programme director for the project we are working for at the moment has a 3 series with all the kit and badges but a 1.8 under the bonnet... I just chuckled and asked if all the space under the "hood" was for extra passengers...
