Do you guys drive your 7ers yourselves?

I love to drive my cars. But in Manila when I see luxury cars like BMWs or Jags or Mercs the owner just ride in the back. Even if it is just a 3er or a C-class. Even Camrys and Accords here get driven by chauffeurs. Do you guys drive your own cars?

Definitely here in the US its all about driving the car yourself. Out here in California we see Rolls Royce, Bentley, etc and all are mostly driven by the owners mainly because people like to drive here and its more about the fun of driving than just being transported.

Intersting question, but I certainly do the driving. I doubt if anyone was content to sit in the back and be driven around that they'd waste their time participating in a car fanatics online forum.
