Sad day for my M135i

[TLK]

Hey guys

So I had an unfortunate accident happen to my M135i a few weeks ago.

Was pretty bleak about my poor car

A bakkie went into the back of me!

The car is at the repair shop being fixed and I am just waiting patiently to get my baby back, and hopefully she still looks as good as when I bought her

The exact same thing happened to me a month ago.. Do these bakkie drivers not pay attention to what's going on around them?! :flyfun:

I'm pretty sure the car will be right as rain TLK :thumbs:

I had similar issue with a bakkie. I think it's just the crappy brakes that can't stop them in time.

Eish! sorry dude
but yeah these bakkie okes! jus seen an incident this morning on the Grayston offramp where a bakkie rammed into a citigolf which inturn hit the car infront of him.

Was it a double cab? Their brakes are crap. I almost rammed into another car in my dad's DC two weeks ago when traffic suddenly stopped. Safe following distance is 5 cars for these monsters. If you have one behind you, ensure you have a big enough gap in front of you so as to give the DC enough braking space as well.

Thanks guys!

It was a double cab, he said the brakes locked up when he tried to stop.

I am sure she will look good when its done, I shall post a pic of the finished product.

Force of habit now is to look behind me before I brake.. Unfortunate that it took this incident to learn that lesson. As they say, the best lessons are the hardest :thumbdo:
