I claim to own a BMW...

....because I DO own a BMW.

A 2012 BMW 135i M Sport to be precise.

This one:

That includes a video from a few years ago, with my 135, my (mine then)
RF89 Van Diemen, my RF98 Van Diemen, my Dodge 1500 pickup truck, and (in
the background not mentioned) my 1990 Mazda Miata (also now sold).

I know only a little about the betrayal of Norway, Arlen, that's true.
Unlike you, I have no problem admitting when my knowledge is limited.

But I AM something of a WWII buff, given that my father was English and
his father served in the RAF.

Let's see if Quisling can "think for himself" "logically" enough to
acknowledge to you that you're full of it when you say I can't own a BMW 
because I don't "follow the herd" of BMW owners sufficiently to know 
which BMWs "bimmer" and "beemer" are used for.
