Big issue with the X6!!

Been driving the Panzer to Barcelona. .and back. . some 2800 km..or 6,000+ round trip. .long trip, lotsa highway taxes (Italy rips u off, Frenchies have lower rates, Spanish don't give a sheat about toll), great trip (still needing a lot of sleep) . . .lots of highway sandwiches, espressos, redbulls, etc.

well, what's the topic title all about?

In 2 weeks and 6,000plus km I saw only 10-12 X6 on highways, in cities including Zagreb, Rijeka, Padova, Nissa (Nice), Monte Carlo, Cap Antibes, Barcelona, Venezia, Trieste, Tarvizio, Budapest.

At the Monte Carlo Casino there was only another purple X6, plus several other cars like Ferrari, Lambo and stuff like that.

The point is that I've been stopped at 2 am in Monte Carlo by the Nazi Monte Carlo Police.. .to give me and my girlfriend the shit of: "Miss, please spell the maiden name of your mother". "Where are you going from here?" "I am going to Nice" "Where are you staying in Nice?" "At Carlton Hotel" But Carlton Hotel is in Saint Tropez" . "Maybe, but there is also one in Nice" "Really?" "Yes, you can use Google for that".

well, wtf. . . they are ordered to check on every single person from abroad, , ,hanging around Monte Carlo.. .I asked some dude at a gas station in Monte Carlo (he had a Porsche Carrera with plates from Monaco/Monte Carlo) where the fok is that casino because MC is a total traffic biatch to newcomers and the dumbass replied: " I dunno". and I got flabergasted. .

Finally we managed to find the grand casino where we discovered in awe, that dorks in sneakers are allowed to get inside. . .after I and my girlfriend dressed up like we where supposed to do some remake of "The Great Gatsby". .

We got inside, , spent 100 Euros, won 160, wasted 60, and left with the same 100 Euro bill. .did some pics outside the Grand Casino, took off, did an illegal U-turn in that fokd up city (that place is a biatch without GPS) and got humiliated by the Monte Carlo police. . .At least I didn't get a ticket.. . WTF. . . folks in sneakers and T-shirts in the Grand Casino. .give me a break!!
