    BeoLab 9's - a grand day out!

    Just thought you might find this amusing, as it got countless "double takes" from drivers and pedestrians!

    Took my own BeoLab 9's (no, they aren't for sale, i love them!!) into LifeStyle AV (using the van) for the professional photographer to take some shots of for the website update. However, the van didn't arrive back in time from our deliveries so i had to 'give them a lift home' in the car.  The boot was full, so it was a case of one across the rear seat, and the other being a very well behaved passenger.

    I pulled up at some traffic lights, and the driver of the car next to me clearly didn't have a clue what it was as he nudged his wife and pointed at my esteemed passenger..

    I see you have a BMW 3-series. You should get the M5 i-Drive button made by B&O.

    Looks so much better.

    They also do the running boards on I think the 5 series. We saw them in Struer.

    Aparently they won´t be doing anymore of this kind of work in the future though.

    Fooled me by the title " A Grand Day Out" Lee. I thought you were referring to the brilliant 1st Wallace & Grommit Oscar winning cartoon.

    On 2nd thoughts maybe it's a Freudian slip on your part, remember the penguin (Feathers McGraw) from "The Wrong Trousers"? ........ Hmmmm....

    Sold that ages ago!  Bought an E55 then sold that to partially fund BeoWorld !!

    The BMW is all on finance, so i claim no prestige! Laughing
