A Bad Day for BMWs: Australian Motoring Journo Has Small Run-In with Falling Debris
For the most part, being handed the keys to a steady stream of press cars is one of the big perks of the motoring journalist gig, but that isn’t to say the cars don’t come with at least a few strings attached. For instance, where one may not be required to be hyper cautious about avoiding even the most minor scrapes and digs in their own vehicle, those little imperfections often result in conversations with manufacturers that we’d rather not have—to say nothing of our own fleet managers.
Which is partially what makes this tale from Samantha Stevens of Australia’s Wheels Magazine so horrifyingly fascinating; it being an accident that she had no way in the world of avoiding, and yet one that laid utter waste to a perfectly beautiful BMW 135i. You can probably get the gist of what went down by looking at the Side A vs. Side B picture above, but you’d be doing yourself a disservice by not clicking through the link and reading about why, exactly, half of this particular 1-Series was crushed by a falling building…and then drove away. Well, sort of drove away at any rate.

It's unbelievable having to pay for $80K or more AUD for a car that cost $35-40K here at US. Although value of Australian dollars have declined recently, but back in June and July, two currencies were almost equal. So taking that into consideration, I would not want to buy a new Beemer there, you'd have to be wealthy to get something sporty. And driving there, especially in Sydney, is whole another matter.
