BMW most popular brand in Belgium
As an article in a Belgian newspaper told yesterday, BMW is the most popular brand in Belgium at the moment, followed by Nokia, Disneyland Paris, Coca-Cola and Ikea. We apparently like the new Bangle-way of car design, and to be honest, I think that is true, most of the people I talked with about the new filosofy of BMW's design agreed on me that it wasn't as bad as most people say. And this poll was even taken before the E60 M5 and the new M6 come out, so I wonder what the outcome will be next year. Way to go BMW!

Re: BMW most popular brand in Belgium

Re: BMW most popular brand in Belgium
they didn't say the design was the best - but they said that the BMW brand was the most popular one - I can understand why.
