This is the result of a shocker of a Friday evening....
Driving home on the freeway.. crest a hill... white bakkie cuts right in front of me... emergency lane change to the slow lane ...AND ..... BANG into a polo doing 55kmph on the freeway....

:cursin::cursin::cursin::cursin::cursin::cursin::cursin::cursin:

Ah, thats bad luck m8, sorry to hear/see :cursin:


I always say, if I get into an accident, because of the stupidity of someone else, I hope for their part I won't be able to walk after that, because I'll rip their spine through their ass & shit on their chest.

Bump...



Sorry to hear man! Always such an annoyance when something like this happens. Luckily you didn't get hurt?

I can ask you the same thing Kev! LOL But like you, I also like BMWs... or scratch that... I like BMW's M Division Alfa don't have the performance RWD anymore, so BMW is the logical next step! :thumbsup:

Plus, I like meeting new people! :clap:

"time for a new car" really means that if this is a write-off I will grab back all my performance gear out of the car and put it on a new 135i, and if it gets repaired I will be trading the repaired car in on a new 135i... once again only after taking all my performance toys off this one.

And once that is resolved it will be time to get going on the E34 M5 project that I have just bought Craigs car for....

oh welll....
Cheers

[Hellas]

Ouch man! Is the car at Z?

 

[freerider]

Oh man nick that is not cool at all!

So what was the car doing at Zeemax? I didnt realise they did panel beating as well :mmm:


When Can I come and fetch my cheap 135i?

 

[Mike1]

Ouch!

Sorry to see this...

Often in the industrial areas they have a variety of tow places with smashed up cars... I always find it interesting to look at the state some of the cars are in...

I saw a Chery at one in bellville..... Holy smokes...

Be happy you in a BMW.

LMAO.... definitely thought you were offering to buy!!!. they are genuine and bugger did they hurt when I bought them.... hence my overly protective paternal nature with reference to them.....

My wife is firmly of the belief that I am having an affair with someone in BMW performance because my car keep on sprouting new stuff from their stable... well it did until Friday

Cheers

Dude.... the pain... Zeemax also do panel work (according to their website) so based on your glowing recommendation... and because they are Zurich approved I had it delivered there:clap::clap:

So basically you are on the hook for their work.... I love it when a plan comes together...:nono::nono::nono:
Just kidding but my new (old) E34 M5 arrives on Saturday and it will also need to spend some time in Zeemax.

For now i have put my 635 project on hold because i cannot find a M88 M635csi for love nor money....:excited::excited:

Cheers

[Razz]

where do you get the BMWP goodies from?
In the process of getting a 130i M Sport and looking to spice it up a bit.

Real CF

Hi Scunik,

Where did you get the carbon fibre mirrors? They look pretty good.

Hi,
They were BMW performance original parts and available from your local dealer at a ridiculous price_
