Jakiś bogaty Chińczyk kupił sobie w listopadzie 760i, to się zaczęło psuć i
BMW nie potrafi/chce go mu naprawić. Więc ten postanowił, że 3 osły będą
ciągnąć przez tysiące kilometrów tę beemkę. Na szczęście dla osłów policja do
tego nie dopuściła, ale szopka była niezła, a informacja poszła w świat.
CHINA: Problem-plagued BMW turned into three donkey-power version by angry
owner

Outraged by a problematic BMW luxury car, the owner tied three donkeys to the
vehicle and attempted to drag it thousands of kilometres from Beijing to
Hangzhou, the capital of east China's Zhejiang Province, Chinese state media
reported on Tuesday.
A report carried by the Hindustan Times said the donkey train started its
trek trailed by the BMW 760i sedan as well as several people walking and
carrying white banners that read: "Who can solve quality flaws with BMWs?"
Traffic police halted the donkey team, which drew a large crowd of onlookers,
after only 40 minutes.
Lin reportedly said he decided to arrange the donkey drive as it seemed the
cheapest way to get the car to Hangzhou, and secondly, he wanted to draw
public attention to "how BMW treats customers."
Lin told media he bought the expensive car last November at the Harbin Auto
Show. Problems started appearing soon after. He said the BMW authorised
service centre repaired the car several times but it was still so problem-
ridden that it could not be driven.
Li said he had tried to get the company to agree to repair the car once and
for all and to promise to refund his money if problems continued, but the
company did not agree.
The manager of the public relations department of BMW's China representative
office, Ma Qingsheng, said if Lin gave them a chance to repair the car, he
could promise that all the problems would be solved.
Lin said he still had doubts. "I've already given them several chances", he
said.
