I need to own a more stereotypical lawyer car in order to move up in my career.

Why not a 5 series?

Audi Allroad. I know you want it.

I was going to say a 5-series. A good amount of them in this area own one.

Because I like unreliable things

I want one so much, so very much.

Kinja'd!!!

Just imagine driving this up the front steps of a courthouse, and crashing through the window. Why? Because you've got an Allroad. You can do anything.

Actually, a Jaaaaaaag might be up your alley then.

Everything is a road for the Allroad.

Unreliable and lawyer-ish?

Lincoln LS?

Alfa 159? or GT?

So....would I be able to drive it up the side of the parliament buildings to their roofs?

jkm7680 > thebigbossyboss
11/12/2014 at 08:16

Yes, You also can drive it on ceilings also :P

...that's cause it has studded tires...but instead of studs there is suction cups on the tires.

But it's depreciating, and unreliable.

The guy I bought my 850R from was a lawyer. But then again, so was my old neighbour, and despite being a partner at a fairly well-regarded local firm, he drove a beat-up Civic, and rode a bicycle most of the time.

LOL, there´s a lawyer that moved next to my house couple months ago, he owns a black 607!

My father and brother are lawyers. Both of their firms are infested with Toyota Avalons. I swear there are more in their garages then any dealer has ever had at once. So weird.

I'm a lawyer. Almost all the people I work with have A4s or 3ers. The senior people (except me) pretty much all have 911s, except the one guy with an E63 wagon.

Same with my firm, but Azeras.

Seniors at my firm all drive either a 5 series or E-class. Almost all the other lawyers (my co-workers) drive Azeras but me and my untrustworthy Citroen, the interns have Jettas or the bus.

Yeah, but they are a bit boring

Cars are a lot cheaper in the US, and although it sounds like you might be at a big firm I think we pay our juniors more on a per-cost-of-living basis at big firms in the US. I know for example Hengeler and other German firms, as well as for example Magic Circle firms in London, are in that category. (They would claim to have more prestige, but I always say you can't eat prestige! :) )

Yeah, we have our wonderful 100% import tax here. And you reminded me that I forgot this inside the car, shit.

As the owner of a 406 I'd imagine the 607 is more reliable than a BMW of similar vintage. Certainly cheaper to fix/find parts for.

Not in south america, they sold like 5 of them here.
