Wish I still had mine, Bloody Lamp post!

Nice one Jase , Nice to see an M3 46er in the stable.

Cheers, loving it, havn't turned the traction control off yet after my last experince with a power pole.

Sorry, I'd be keen to know the insurance place too.

VERO, had to get a couple of valuations after the fact, but all ok.

sh*t Jase, I'm gutted. Said it before, but will say it again - only e36 on BS that I REALLY liked.

Cheers ,yea a shame for it not to be cruising around in its former glory, will never be the same again.

Must've had sore knees for a while! That sucks man, insurance covered it right?

Yeah legs squashed a little, bruising on the insides of my knees. I dont think id be walking if it was another millimetre more, insurance all paid out, all mods were listed and they were great to deal with. Thank god.

Slimline sport seats ftw

Seriously, what sort of injuries did you get with that kind of impact?

small cut on the top of my head, half centimetre cut on the top of my finger and a little bruising, oh and my glasses flew out the window and landed on the footpath ,Very lucky!

Not an experience I want to go through again.

For thread for photos of crashed BVM8W go to POLISHED

Not so Polished anymore..

Now that it has gone for good here are some pics of what a bmw looks like after sliding sideways into a power pole with way too much grunt.

did you keep the plate? would be worth a bit id think!! Id have got it to stash away for a rainy day ha

Yep, got the plate dont know weather to sell it, or keep it?

1UZ+R154+charger+quiafe+AP brakes+everything else for 6800..... bloody hell what a STEAL.

I'll take some pics of your new car if you like Jason, this weekend if it suits?

That would be mint, this weekend is flat out though, how bout next sat after work? 5pm on.., yea someone got an absolute steel, the supercharger alone was $10k to buy, $3k to fit and $1k for bonnet mods, f**k.

how much did it go for? Turners dicked me around and i didn't end up getting a bid in unfortunately. If it went for under 7 i'll be laying eggs

it did, just, $6800, if I had the funds I would have bought it back myself, bugger.

BVM8W just sold through tuners, will it be reserected or dismantled? Someone got an absolute bargin, Hope it was a bimmersport member, it would be great to see the reserection of an awesome car.

Thanks for your thoughts guys, a big scare and great loss, I am ok and suvived with just a scratch, Amazing!

It's the end of an era for me, was going to buy it back and start again, something came up that I just could not resist, and has swollowed up all by funds but is an awesome ride from the BMW stable.

How the hell do you survive an impact like that? There's no drivers side anymore!

Very lucky, my wife reckons I had an angel on each shoulder.

Power pole 1, BMW 0

Yep, Bmw's are not invincible!

Another day at Ruapuna, Atta, Sam and Henry all turned up for a great 3 hrs driving.

Those v8 touring car drivers cetainly know how to drive in close !
