[Hawaii] Oopsies at Dealership

I heard from a friend of mine that works on hydrolic lifts that an X5 dropped on a 7 Series recently at the local dealership!!!!! The lift failed! Luckily no one was hurt. Damn, that's so scary! Glad it wasn't a MINI...

My MINI goes back in on Tuesday for a passenger side Xenon replacement. So as you can imagine, I'm crossing my fingers and knocking on wood!!!!

I do know that an X5 got crunched a couple years ago with a lift.

Ouch.:impatient


But that's why there is "shop insurance".

It's good no one was hurt.
That could have been much more "expensive".
