Total Recall

[The Patrolman]

My company car went in for its service today, 5K over due

BMW said while it was in they would check it out regarding two "campaigns " they currently had running

"Campaigns " said I, "yes" thay said.

One for grommets in the drainage channels, and one for the rear diff

"Ahh" exclaimed I, "dont you mean recalls??"

"We at BMW call them Campaigns" "Sir"

Bring it back and we'll finish putting it back together properly they meant.

Turns out it's going back on wednesday for new Diff(s)

Whilst i was in the show room I had a quick drool at cars I will never own.

my fave was the BMW 420d M Sport auto

When they asked whenit could go back in I said I dont mind as long as my courtesy car is the 420d MSport.

Didn't happen

I refused a 1 series on the basis I'm 6'2" and generously proportioned

So our office maager said they have offered a 225d Msport auto Coupe

This, I said was acceptable for 2-3days, possibly running ovr the weekend
