BMW Encounter Today
Went to the local auto show here this weekend and couldn't help but notice BMW brought a man from Munich here to represent. I used to live and work in Germany, and thought it would be interesting to talk with him about the new cars from both makes.
Me: (in German) You are from Munich, yes?
Him: (Ger) Yes! Do you speak German?
Me: (English) Not as good as I used to. I used to work in Hamburg. But you work with BMW there right?
Him: Yes, I love BMW. They are a fantastic company and have wonderful technology. Have you sat in this 740? (pointing to the 740Li nearby)
Me: Oh yes, but I thought the A8 over there (pointing to Audi) was a little nicer. Still, the leather in this was very nice.
Him: Ohhh, no this is better than the A8.
Me: Well, I liked the A8 more but perhaps it is because it was just refreshed.
Him: (Ger) Which car do you drive?
Me: An A6.
Him: Ah, it must be nice driving a Volkswagen!
Me: (catching the joke) Yes, but BMW means Bring Mich Werkstatt (bring me a mechanic).
We both laughed a bit and talked about the weather in Germany and a little more about cars. He was nice man, but I had to push him around some being Audi and BMW are pretty competitive
Happy Holidays everyone
