This weekend saw the London Motor Expo 2008. Taking place in Canary Wharf, this free event offered a showcase of cars, bikes and scooters from manufacturers such as Land Rover, BMW, and Aston Martin. Everything from concept cars to museum-piece Honda Civics were on display.

Now, what these companies don't tell you are how many of these cars are 'lemons'. You only have to google customer reviews to see several cars having something wrong with them that they have had to be sent back.

In the US they have 'Lemon Legal Specialists' and here are just are few that are BMW Lemons.
From the Ohio Lemonlaw Website:-
BMW Recalls 29,000 Vehicles for Stalling Defects
2006 BMW 550i
2006 BMW 650i Coupe
2006 BMW 650i Convertible
2007 BMW 550i
2007 BMW 650i Coupe
2007 BMW 650i Convertible
2007 BMW X5 4.8i
If you own a lemon BMW 550i, a lemon BMW 650i, or a lemon BMW X5 or another BMW lemon, you may be entitled to your money back or a new vehicle.
BMW is recalled more than 29,000 vehicles for a dangerous stalling problem involving the V8 engine-equipped vehicles with electronic control units. In freezing temperatures, combined with low humidity, BMW found out that an electrostatic discharge can occur at the fuel rail area. If it happens, the engine’s computer (the engine ECU) could be affected and cause stalling.

The Mercedes F1 was sadly tucked inside No. 1 Canary Wharf (Tower) when it should have been outside. However, it still managed to look imposing wheather the doors were open gull wing style or closed.

This show is always impressive with the kind of cars you dream about. It's free and the location is stunning.

What a waste of money when some people in London can't afford dental treatment!
