My dad can't drive pigs to market so no hope!. He once went into the garage in a discovery 2 and hit the wrong peddle, I mean the throttle is a 2" square and the brake a 6" square. WTF!

£2500 for repairs, took the top of my compressor, bust an old orchard ladder in half and took the indicator of my motorbike. No way is this man driving a dct M2C

No, no one drives Daddy’s BMW’s. The only exception is I let my wife drive my M2C the first day with me in the passenger seat for 5 miles just to say she drove it. I buy her her own cars. 25 years of happily married shows It’s just better that way.

My 23 yr old son for sure! I've brought him up to be as big a gear head as I am. Enjoying the car with him is one of the reasons I bought it

Family & friends yes, my brother NO

I borrowed his day old 2008 expedition limited SUV for just picking up a new mattress from Macy's but the Miller clan liked it so much we decided to steal/borrow it for our family road trip to FL

2 weeks, 5k miles, 3 kids all under 10 years old abusing the truck! Brothers aggravation was at a 10, bbq sauce, french fries and a overall Scent of feet and cheezetz filled the handsome interior

Every car I get from then on he loves to fck with, 3 minute burnouts, 70 mph hard braking and his favorite off roading to give me a brain itching squeak in the car I can't get rid of (he became a pro @ it)

Some how he got the keys from my wife, then called me as he was driving it, I said please please don't mess with the m2, I bought it, I'm going to keep it (it's not a lease!) of course he drove it 105 mph in 3rd gear

I really love my wife and she is the smartest person I know (exec job and all) but she is a bit of a space cadet when she drives so I'm secretly glad the M2 will be 6MT as she can't drive stick...

I can't say that I plan on letting anyone drive it, but I'm hoping to also not do it in a rude way.
Um, no ... NFW!

My wife can drive whatever car she wants.

1) She drives a Porsche currently.
2) She can drive a manual.
3) She is almost as neurotic about cars as i am.

20 years of auto bliss!
