M325is 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 Hi predicament sucks. But its like my grandad, he never wanted to talk about my car, he hated BMW, always told me I should sell it. He would never buy anything german. There are still and were heaps of soldiers who think/thought the same till their death, but they just dont talk about their feelings. So its not surprising BMWs were attacked at a RSA. Its just sad that people acted on their thoughts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 Poor old bugger probably thought it was a grey battle ship after 6 $4.5 handles. BMW did contribute quite a lot of technology to the Nazi’s in WW2 so you can see why someone fighting them would resent them, my grandparents never liked them and my missus Oma would rather travel in a old Corolla than a new BMW.

antil33t 90 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 I dunno, I don't quite think it would be an old war vet doing this. most of them even though they may not like germans or germany they wouldn't go this far I wouldn't think. My guess is it's some stupid kids being f**kwits. Poor kid though, Anyone got any cheap panels they could sell him? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[email protected] 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 Well what can you say, just another vandal attack. This article is blatantly begging for someone to fix it, so many number figures mentioned. That is the impression I get anyway. Plus $1800 could almost do a full respray! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deeveus 81 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 I don't think it would be race or old war vet related myself. I rekon it would be just some prick that's been pissed off by someone there or a bunch of kids doing it for laughs. Either way, IMO that fails hard in my books.

bimmer boy 21 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) my missus Oma would rather travel in a old Corolla than a new BMW. Ew. Thats stink of someone to do that to his car, but mind you my car has been keyed 3 times in the last 2 months, wish someone would at least get creative and draw something...

Phatputer 3 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 Well, the $1800 would include replacing the 4 slashed tires but still, $1800 is most likely almost a full respray quote from a panel beater. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grant 4 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) It happens, thats why we have insurance. I'm picking that it was just a coincidence that it happened at an RSA. I don't think I know of any elderly people who are into vandalism, they seem to have respect for personal property.

antil33t 90 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) 3rd party doesn't cover for vandalisim though. and full cover for an E30 is very unfairly priced. Edited August 24, 2010 by antil33t Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 3rd party doesn't cover for vandalisim though. and full cover for an E30 is very unfairly priced. That is the opportunity cost of owning an old cheap car isn't it. I own an old cheap car and have it insured for liability olny. I accept that if I am in an at fault accident, it gets stolen or damaged by vandalism that I have no recourse. It makes huge economic sense for me to only have it insured for liability only.

mark247 39 Report post Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) If you want to buy from the allies you are basically going to have to drive something terrible. Either French, British, American ( excluding muscle cars because they're awesome ), or Russian... go the Lada.... I'll stick with being a traitor.
