I got caught up in traffic on the M25 today (I think it was M1 or A1 area!!) where an E30 BMW was involved in a crash, possibly with a lorry! The car is a write-off as it had been on it roof somehow and ended up in the middle lane facing the wrong way!!

As I drove past the driver was conscious and talking with a woman who had stopped and waiting for the emergency services

The registration is C21 *** (I think it was C21 UTR!!), a red 2 door. I hope it was nobody here.

To be honest, the only section that looked unscathed was the whole front, the back was stoved in and the roof was flatter towards the drivers side!! The only glass left was the passenger door side!

The guy was very lucky as the only vehicle I could see that could have been involved was a lorry!!

Tough as old boots these E30's
