Long story short.....BMW replaced both front headlamp units (6 months apart) due to water ingression.
One of them went again after only 6 months and was again replaced under goodwill.
Now, just over a month down the line, the other one has gone again too!!
This time, however, the dealer has suggested that this might have been the result of another car backing into my car, with enough force to damage internal components of the light fitting.
The thing is, though, my car is completely unmarked and bears no sign of impact. This was confirmed by a local body shop this afternoon....the guy there just smiled....they're havin a laff mate!!
So I'm now waiting for the dealer/BMW to get back to me and let me know if they'll help.
Anyone looking objectively at this situation and weighing it up could only reach one conclusion, based on a reasonable balance of probabilities.
By the way, it's an E60 M5 which spends most of its time snugly garaged and is never parked in public areas!
What do you make of this?
Could this be a case of the immaculate collision??
Completely exasperated!!!!
