Just another day with the bimmer.

is this only me or there are some people here doing what i've been doing

just does afterschool, feeling to drive the car.. smoothly
infact what i did was not driving anywhere.. just around housing area
just love those feelings "rowing through gears"
drove around 10 KM ish maybe.. just to get the wheels rotate..
go back home and park.. and feel your day is complete. lol

Yes I do this quite often my wife thinks I am nuts!!! Even if we need milk or bread, the shop is 5 minutes away but it always takes me at least 20 mins in the car ... Haha

I usually take the car out for a drive after dinner, when the traffic is good. Do that every 2 -3 days, driving about 30 - 40KM, just to enjoy the feeling.

The only difference is I ask permission from my wife and feel a bit quilty when it (define "it": no transport function involving driving sessions) takes more than an hour...or two.

Got to keep the wife happy, it is the second one I have and also mother of my kids.
