Just came across this advert on gumtree: BMW E60 523 FACELIFT STRIPPING FOR SPARES

Judging by this pic, it looks like this car was being driven with the space-saver when the accident occurred. These are to be used simply to get you to safety and have the punctured tyre repaired or replaced...

Yep, I've seen drivers of other brands doing some crazy speeds with space savers on.

I had a clown try to race me with a 545i on the spare :nonono:

That's madness! Do these people really not understand the danger of this?! :nonono:

People see my car and think I wanna race by default :nonono:

Just brings back a memory. Had a guy revving up his Cupra next to me in traffic yesterday. Gave him him a proper greeting when we were sitting under the fly over before I turned onto the highway. Freeflow V8 :inlove:

The look on his face was priceless :roflol:

Well on second inspection I opened the gomboom link and saw the car's in Wilderness WC and the plate is GP... probably loaded with holiday bags and stuffs in the boot.

Heavier than normal load
+
More passengers than normal
+
holiday mode
+
far from home
+
blasted all money on holiday
+
Nice Wilderness roads
+
Higher speeds than recommended on space saver
+
One bit sharper turn
=
kkkkkkkkAAAAABBBBLLLLAAAAAAMMMMM, gumtree post.
