It does. Jewish Racing Gold works well on it.
Hahaha - That's an expression I haven't heard for a looong time! I nearly bought an i3 one that was up for sale in Barnet but I didn't go to even look at it because I knew I'd still buy it even if it was fubar'd.
I might get one to liven up the Cotswolds though!
There are over 100 abandoned BMW i3s on Korea’s Jeju Island
Case of not wanting to flood the market?
Sad anyway, such a great car to leave to rot...

That's the little known fact about carbon fibre. It rusts so much quicker than steel.
Besides, it looks like someone is already stripping them for spares in a nice little nocturnal business.
The one big advantage of carbon fibre rust is that adding more water, especially with a sponge, reverses the process. Besides, it looks like someone is already stripping them for spares in a nice little nocturnal business.
I'm sure they're all sat there while the company receivers negotiate with the debtors over what to do. If they had a car auction system like we do, they'd just be pushed through over a few weeks and they'd all sell, but you can only do that when you have the rights to sell. Looking at the state of them, its no surprise BMW walked away, they're not exactly ticking the boxes on the approved used checklist criteria

It is rather a case of new soiling media desperate to create a tragedy. Barely anything in that amateur fictional tale someone took the effort to scribble down is even corroborated by the video.

Modern journalism has become so utterly base and it's like the whole world has become one great big Jeremy Kyle show of distressed non thinkers addicted to a perpetual downward spiral of tripe.
As you say, the accountants will be sorting through who gets what from the remnants and then they will be sold at whatever price gets them off the land so that can be sold. It would be illogical to think BMW want them back, they'll just sit on the debtors side and write everything off. A local firm will pick them all up for peanuts, make a nice turn flogging them quickly and cheaply all around the island and maybe transport a few to the mainland while the remainder will continue to be broken, but legitimately.
