Come on, be fair... it's unlikely that anyone owning a Z has got a 'huge cock'... it's all about compensation isn't it... have you seen the length of that bonnet?

I think the best wind up is to put them on your Zed to get this reaction . . . .but then that's Yorkshire humour for you - find out what irritates people and keep going on about it. . . . :poke:

Brilliant this. I've never had so many replies to a thread. :rofl:

That's funny, the first time I showed my e89 to my gf she said "the front is so long, are you trying to prove something?". To me the car just reminds me of Peter perfect from Wacky races! :D

I'm not going to even question why you would want to wear cheap knock off items of inferior quality to impress others, when you could wear something like a Seiko and have quality without pretending to anyone. Knock off bags last 5 minutes, the quality of the leather is s**t. :thumbsdown:

He's driving a Z4, he doesn't need to pretend, it already looks great! :thumbsup:

The equivalent would be wearing a TAG quartz, and putting "automatic" on the dial with some dodgy sticker. :fuelfire:
