Apparently a genuine German ad for used BMWs.

I bet the PC crowd will get all bent out of shape over that ad!
It is a very clever bit of advertising though and somewhat humorous (at least to me).

Good advert.
Second hand sometimes is the best choice.
Low miles and hardly used.
Mind you your first one is usually an old banger

Looks like high maintenance to me. What is? Beemers of course, what did you think I meant?

BMW Greece - in english?
What the heck, coudn't afford the headlights as the film quote goes. Probably couldn't do them justice either but enough realism for one day.
Had a scary trip to the cinema today, went to see The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and found myself surrounded by grey wrinklies even greyer, wrinklier and gabbier than SWMBO.
