Magnetic Tow Technology
There is a BMW advertisement in our Metro Newspaper about ropeless/cableless towing capability from BMW. This sounds like a great idea and would probably avoid collisions between the car towing and the car being towed. I am sure this feature/option comes at a price however...  Vik

They still do this every April 1st in the U.K.? When I was living in the U.K. around 1978, I remember the topless convertible ad, where BMW used an air pump to blow air from the top of the windscreen so that a top wasn't needed in a rainstorm.
I'd love to see this tradition in the U.S., but I'm afraid we don't seem to have the humor for it over here... BMW would probably get a fine from the FTC for false advertising! P.S. Here's a link to a clear picture of the ad: BMW+Magnetic+Tow+Technology+April+Fool.jpg (image) And the website link: BMW UK : News And the 2008 version: http://www.bmweducation.co.uk/coFacts/images/C-R-A-P.jpg Last edited by Penguin; 04-01-2009 at 09:38 AM.
