///Whippy aerial - Market watch

As a die hard Trump! supporter, I feel strongly that his presidency has caused the new revival of the long whippy!

For too long, Obama had us at such low expectations. The short stubby was simply an expression of this, although a subliminal one, no doubt.

Now, we have MAGA Trump in office with yuuggeee expectations and now we MUST raise the bar, and thus the antenna as well!

I say now, let our whippys raise as high as our DOW* and lets "Make Aerials Great Again" (MAGA)!!!


* DOW is a stock market thing.

And this is satire. Please, let's all just laugh and roll our eyes. You know this is funny. :poke: :poke:
 
Looks like someone got a real winter bargain, genuine BMW whippy in original condition for £5 :o

I know how much we like a chart on our market watch threads so I've put one together to help members get their whippy investment timing right. With prices depressed due to winter and Brexit it looks like it's time to buy! :thumbsup:

Ah, twas me so it was, cornering the market on the whippy.
Got to look after the magical whip :wink:
 
Oh no - I paid £10 for my used whippy! Looks like I bought near the top of the market. :o

I'll just have to keep it until the next surge in demand. :rofl:
 
is there a whippy quick release mechanism that I could purchase? I just don't want to leave it on the car when parked and have it stolen by a speculator

And as a bonus you can pick it up later when it eventually comes down. :wink:
 
My car is insured on an agreed valuation basis. Should I up it? My whippy is immaculate and in perfect working order! :roll:

I used to have a Whippy on my E36 convertible and someone stole it - they actually broke the antenna amplifier as they removed it. I got new parts supplied through insurance, but never actually fitted the Whippy - I went with a stubby after that

It was the first thing I removed when I got my Z4 and I also removed the one from my girlfriend’s R50 Mini

So now I have 2 spares - one brand new in BMW packaging

Unfortunately I have a £1000 excess on my policy so if someone stole mine it would not be covered. :? Still who knows if they keep increasing in value I might be OK. :(

My wife and I are heading for Phuket/Bangkok on Tuesday. Looks as though we are in for some hot weather! 😎

Don't be tempted to smuggle back cheap counter fit whippy look a likes. The forum police :police: will soon find out and be around your house with the hacksaws. :wink:

And have a good one. :thumbsup:
 
Wow! Never thought of that, but I certainly won’t be tempted. I’ll stick to the fake Rolex, Patek Philippe etc. Too late now but maybe I should have taken some OEMs with me and set up a stall. 😉

From experience of the area I have no doubt someone will be able to sell you a copy of a whippy, or as they say out there it's not a copy it is a genuine imitation. Enjoy.
