Ace Of Spades 51 Report post Posted December 17, 2013 So I had an awesome start to my last week at work..... Was out on a 100km/h section out in dury, some 'genius' decided it would be a good idea to over take someone else with out looking. We collided and the front of his car hit mine causing all this damage. We basically clipped each other then the e34 decided to cut his car in half.. Pretty cool being in hospitable, doct's thought i had a broken neck but turns out was just major bruising and tissue damage. The drugs were mint. So thankful to the e34 for being a 'TANK' and taking a big impact. Sad to see it like this In other news i will have a full 535i manual parts car soon.... Hope you guys are having a better week.. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gjm 3194 Report post Posted December 17, 2013 Wishing you well, and hoping for a speedy recovery. I travel that stretch of road every day and it never ceases to amaze me how many people pull out to overtake without looking. There was one this evening at the bottom of the Bombay Hills - off the slip road from SH2, and swing straight into the middle lane. Unfortunately, there was already someone in the middle lane... Not me, but I had to brake hard to avoid becoming a part of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_ethrty-Andy_ 2122 Report post Posted December 17, 2013 yes I have crashed one of my E34s in the past, very minor damage to my car and the other car (Honda 4 door, Integra i think) was C-shaped, same thing, pulling across my lane i would have been in his blind spot. Might be 18 or 20 year old car, but they are built like tanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Allanw 1051 Report post Posted December 17, 2013 Oooof! Bummer about the car, though glad it did what it was supposed to. I'm continualyy stunned by Kiwi's poor lane control and how many STUPID times we are on the wrong side of the centre line. Shame the cops don't worry about it until it's too late. Get well soon!

Ace Of Spades 51 Report post Posted December 17, 2013 Thanks pep's for all the love, it does help haha Other car is in the police impound hahahaha yes I have crashed one of my E34s in the past, very minor damage to my car and the other car (Honda 4 door, Integra i think) was C-shaped, same thing, pulling across my lane i would have been in his blind spot. Might be 18 or 20 year old car, but they are built like tanks. Amen to that, very happy i was in the beast. Guts about the car, but better it than you!! Glad to hear you'll be up and about soon. The e34 is a solid bit of car, I demo derby'd one once, stood up so well I saved it to use again!! Get well soon. haha that might be the thing it gets used for.. or wagon conversion ... Very lucky to be in such a solid car like the e34! Hope u have a good recovery! So what's next on the cards? Any new car plans yet? Well i had been saving for a work ute.... it's a shame BMW don't make any hahaha. But plans for this beast will hopefully be a wagon swap or drift hack haha Just remember, no matter how good she looks in that uniform - 'enema' is not the option box to be ticking for your entertainment activities today....... (And no - we will not be taking 'The drugs made me do it' as an excuse...........!!) Hahahahahaha just made my day! thankyou! Hard out, get well soon, hope you get a holiday after this. Very lucky it wasn't 30cm further over, could have been much worse. Very lucky... yeah have been told I'm not going back to work until the 6th now Oooof! Bummer about the car, though glad it did what it was supposed to. I'm continualyy stunned by Kiwi's poor lane control and how many STUPID times we are on the wrong side of the centre line. Shame the cops don't worry about it until it's too late. Get well soon! Yeah it's very shocking! Cops need to become a where that its not just the night time speeding and drinking, it's also the morning traffic when people are in a rush to get to work and have poor judgement calls.
