Get the flame thrower out lads . . . .

There was a time when the ONLY thing that would guarantee to get my daughter to sleep was 100mph.
Baby seat. Nope - carrycot's fine. Seatbelts. Not fitted. Motorway. Fat chance.
She's now 23 and sleeps better (I'm told by her husband.)
In my defence (?) I wouldn't do it now.

Well I'm selling the carbon !!!!

It's great and same size and shape as the e92/e93 but I can't get it to fit , after being out in cold and snow took 45 min to get old one off , then the carbon one is a little curved compared to the oem one but does push straight , but I tried and ended up putting a mark in my bumper which pissed me off . I think if I was to try it in the warm or heat gun it up for a little bit of flex then install it instead of in the snow it might fit but I've had enough I will put it back on eBay when I can be arsed today . Bloody car

I think some one good with these things or a body shop would fit it in about half hour but me who is used to hammers and heavy handedness it's not gonna happen so keep eyes out on eBay as long as I get what I paid back I'm happy

spoiler is too much as it doesn't even fit the boot lid it goes over onto the wing which is why I think it looks cack.

Can't believe anyone would be sat in their car in the fast lane without lights. Shocking shocking what a f*cking idiot.

Obviously on a private road.

Hey Batts335d,
Glad to hear you guys and the woman were unscathed. Shows how solid BMWs are.

Anyways, Loving the new black e92! NOT a big fan of the spoiler.

With regards to the rear diffuser/valance; You should consider talking your local BMW dealer for the M-sport rear performance diffuser... You can buy it and always carbon wrap it to get a smilar effect!

Think 80mph is perfectly fine as long as you know how to drive and can keep your car under control. National speed limit in countries like France is 80mph. Not like he was doing 120mph with no control.

cheers

hopefully this bit of the thread wont show its face again too much just had the insurnace renewable for this

the wanted £2580 !!!!!!!! wtf !!!! i crashed i didnt kill any one !!!!

i told them bollox and went phoning around and got it down too £870 fully comp with another named driver on it as well with the crash on the record so was happy with that as the claim wasnt a cheap on

i could of got it cheaper but not many places now let you drive another car on your insurnace even if your fully comp , and i tend to drive the misses car or old dears car if mine is left at work on a week day so thanks to esure and adimral can suck my nuts

Hate admiral! Had an incident when I came out to my car from my girlfriends house one morning to find someone had attempted to smash the driver window with a bottle, which obviously didn't work so they then smashed it over the car above the window.

Window was scored and scratched so bad I needed to replace it.
Paid £70 iirc window excess fee and got it replaced, not affecting ncb and apparently by my renewal.

Got a quote and was going through with it, then last minute they said oh sorry because of the window it's an extra £400! Their excuse was because it happened once it could happen again, even though I said it was on a random street that I would never usually park. With that justification it could happen to all their clients and everyone's should be £400 more :S
Insurance is a complete scam!
