BM WORLD 1283 Report post Posted February 10, 2017 my misses had her nice NZ new 2002 330i touring written off got banged into at the lights on the dodgy north shore area last Wednesday got hit by a scobby do , then banged into corona then into a rav4 has bent the rear rails but because it had a towbar it has bent the boot floor (back bone ) of the car . door gaps closed up etc have brought it back off the insurance company. so probably will part it out which seems a shame being a nice nz new car lowish ks been very reliable for last 4 years or so so she's now driving around in the e34 544iT disturbing everyone and sitting off car alarms everywhere for now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
