Greetings All
Our 2007 RT with 68k and fully farkled for LD two up, broke a drive shaft/u-joint, and possible finial drive failure. In the shop awaiting the repair estimate. We bought it used with 17k, 38k clutch replacement $2700, 58k shock replacement from Works $2400 and 5 times over a year in the shop to make it right (the dealer was Great in making this correct), headlight fixture melted $900. and more smaller items and 3 missed Rallies this year. What we have spent monthly to repair would have would have covered a loan for a new BMW under warranty.
We hear about all these great BMWs that have 75k and not cost a dime to repair and wonder why not us.
At what point do you stop repairing your old BMW and buy a new BMW?
Thanks Tony
