Blimey, that really puts it in perspective surely the legal department must have looked at this and done a few sums. God forbid anything happens to anyone else as it did in the wet in France but I can't help thinking eventually it will with the prevailing attitude surrounding these failures. As the numbers steadily increase in the states with the kind of mileages those guys are doing litigation would be uppermost in my mind were it my baby to hold.
A wing and a prayer comes to mind, is it possible to get these welds and tubes ultrasonically tested in situ. If this is the case I think that's what I would be doing. I hired some kit and an operative to check out on site some 50 metre X 150mm tubular guyed transmitting masts and this worked very successfully.
Good luck with your M3W they really are exciting cars for sure.
Thank you for this insight.
