no its not just 1 car itis all ,no more bmw for gov.
they stop getting the motorbike last year too much to run and keep bracking down, that why they went back to Honda bikes.
Maybe itis the same for BM cars

And the government say that they choose the VW because is not as expensive while it is still classy enough to keep HK's reputation as the world's financial center. I mean why? They are civil servants for crying out loud, they commute around in classy cars doesn't mean that HK is doing well
they shouldn't waste taxpayers' money like that.

does bmw in hk also distribute vw/audi? i'm sure bmw won't risk their reputation by replacing that 1 car with a vw/audi. if so, this is 1 big mistake that will stay with them for a long long time.

Sure we just wanted a place to hea, and if someone volunteer to lend out their house then why not 
The sausage is really ok, just regular sausage you can get anywhere. Unless you are that rich and eat those imported ones that you can only get at CitySuper's deli counter. Maybe you can serve those next time when we come to your house for BBQ.

Apparently Chun Kee is offering the government a very good deal on the police bike so that's why is all VRF 800 now, and yes I think is more reliable and more user friendly for HK roads. Those beemer are just too big.
And the government say that they choose the VW because is not as expensive while it is still classy enough to keep HK's reputation as the world's financial center. I mean why?

this 1 damaged car has to be replaced because i don't see how that particular buyer in question will accept a damaged car (presumbly bmw also has that contract if there's one which says that it will hand over the car brand new minus the usage for this itu event). which brings the point on why bmw wouldn't risk their reputation by replacing that damaged car with a vw.
these e60s are temporarily assigned am plates and therefore government cars for now. i think you went off tangent a bit with that point of yours by collectively referring to all government cars when i was on the context of the that damaged car for the itu conference.
it's good to know now that key civil servants have bimmers sponsored by the government to drive around as i'm not local in hk. indeed, it's a waste of taxpayers' money

i'm referring to the damaged car for the itu conference this week in which bmw sponsored those cars just for this event. the 200 cars as reported in the media were all sold to private buyers by bmw at a discount prior to this event on the condition that bmw could use them for 1 week (ie: itu conference).
this 1 damaged car has to be replaced because i don't see how that particular buyer in question will accept a damaged car (presumbly bmw also has that contract if there's one which says that it will hand over the car brand new minus the usage for this itu event). which brings the point on why bmw wouldn't risk their reputation by replacing that damaged car with a vw.

at lest they don`t have to pay the 120% tax on cars or isit less now
right I see now the crahed 1.
no way will BMW replace the BME e60 for a VW. That guy who sold the car will have to give a bigger discount or a new car to the buyer
Itis the government that is replacing the BMW with VWs
