Doesn't look like an M5?

Alpine* · 08-20-2012, 05:11 PM

I think that is an X5... Pretty spectacular though, burning petrol cascading off the overpass

Shaunski · 08-20-2012, 05:44 PM

Wheels look like X3

Jeef Beef · 08-20-2012, 08:16 PM

I'm gonna have to go with the previous gen X3 like the above post. Looks exactly like my mum's car in terms of the door handles and bodywork.

Pretty concerning how it caught fire like that...

The daily Telegraph have now changed their tune and put it down as a BMW 4 x 4 X5..

Definitely an X3

Hey that's cheating, we only had the bbq'ed front and a bit of a door aperture and a wheel to guess what it was.

He must have hit bloody hard though!

no offence to X3 drivers, but thankfully that is one less of the older model X3's on the road - man they are seriously ugly cars imo. The latest shape looks a lot better imo.

hope no one got hurt though. Pull out the marshmellows!

He's busy waterboarding the driver for information, such a devastating loss of car. Brings tears to my eyes
