Splash one bus stop. Lucky there wasn't anyone waiting there! So much for the much vaunted Xdrive - this isn't about offroad ability, simply onroad traction control....

Lucky for him the bus shelter was made of wood!! and not the usual metal ones we find elsewhere, which would have probably stopped the X5 dead and made a right meal of his front end.

I was amused to see that he complained that the ABS didn't work. By the look of the four seperate tyre tracks, all four wheels were locked up, so as far as the car was concerned, it was stationary and ABS isn't supposed to work when it isn't moving
If he had taken his foot off the brake and given it a chance to work, he would undoubtedly faired much better.

Tell him that he would have been much better off buying a '5'. I wonder if 'X' owners know that it is based on the chasis of the '5'
