- Police have crushed an award-winning BMW after discovering it was a ‘cut-and-shut’ car made from at least FOUR stolen motors.
Footage shows the striking bright green M3 Estate taking part in a car show in Germany last year.
Months later cops stopped it as it travelled on Dartmouth Middleway in Birmingham on November 15 last year.
Eagle-eyed traffic officers became suspicious when it emerged BMW never made an estate version of the M3.
PC Mark Wheaver, from the Central Motorway Police Group (CMPG), said: “This should act as a striking reminder that cars may not be what they seem.
“You might think you’re buying a bargain but it could be a death-trap that cost your life as well as thousands of pounds.
“This BMW looked great on the outside, you can’t fault the paint job, but scratch beneath the veneer and it was just tag welded and structurally unsafe.

👮🏼"guys can I have a minute just before it goes in the crusher..." quickly whips off the competition alloys and hides them behind a container 😂😂😂
_if the things are stolen, why not give back to the owners ?_
Exactly
Can we just clear up the fact it was crushed because it was built using stolen parts, NOT because it was registered as a 2.0 diesel!.
It's so wasteful to crush a perfectly good car. The world already has a major pollution issue, why don't they just recycle the parts to be used to repair other vehicles? Now a plant has to manufacture new parts and release more C02. Crushing cars is a stupid practice.
was a death trap, had to be destroyed, blame the criminals involved.
@Central Intelligence Agency sure the 3 series has a great safety record, but this was not a standard off the production line BMW.
@Central Intelligence Agency well, I'm not going back and forth on this with you. Have a good day.
@Central Intelligence Agency If u look the clip one more time, you will see the term "cut and shut". Actually this wasn't one shell with m parts, but 4 different shells, welded together to form new shell. And for me, the owner was conned as he needed 4 shells to make the car.
@@lidmon yes, I found more info on this elsewhere, fortunately the right decision was made, and it was destroyed.
The police say its a cut n shut .but didnt show any evidence of this .why not show us proof ?
change the title because it wasnt built from 4 stolen cars
So because they found it stolen they didn't just give it back to the original owner? And just crushed it? That's not justifiable!
Should have had a CAT B marker put on it and sold only to bona fide breakers so as much money as possible could have been recouped, that is just beyond wasteful, its mindless vandalism of something still worth an incredible amount of money in parts.
Whistlindiesel fans: iT’s JuSt A cAr BrO
Just saw this video I can't believe the police crushed the car. Police have auctions all the time why not this car? You can also buy stolen or wrecked vehicles at auctions. If I had a chance i would have definitely bid on it. What a waste and money that could have been used to educate police and for other programs. But it's better I guess they pollute the environment they should crush everything they find stolen if it makes the police feel better. What a waste wow
Oh remember don't buy that stolen Rolex at police auction it may get crushed as well. Lol;)
You are so dumb yes stolen recovered cars do get sold in auctions because the cars are still manufactured by the factory and not put together from different multiple cars parts fitted onto the 1 vehicle. Which is the case for this car the shell is welded up from at least 2 different vehicles as well as the entire engine, gearbox and the complete drive train and the ECU and wiring loom are all from 2 differential m3's hence by law they can not sell the car in auctions due to the part numbers belonging to cars that have been paid out by the insurance companies you can not have such a car on the public domain it would always create issues for whoever buys it as n when it gets stopped and they begin checking the vin numbers and then the engine n gearbox numbers would be a complete headache. The idiots should have purchased second hand engine and gearbox use the stolen parts but put them in the salvage parts casing and maybe this car would have not been crushed but the way they went about it the car deserved to get crushed.
They should return the stolen cars to original owners
that car is built from stolen parts and its not respectfull to let someone drive around in a car full of stolen parts also it is not registered correctly
Feel like they just crushed a project car to make a dream of a M3 Estate a real thing, but I guess the UK is against those sort of things
Well if your going to do that don’t use stolen parts 💁🏿♀️
@@yepyep4151 but they should've returned the stolen parts to original owners right?
M3 estate now available from the factory
Well if you want to convert a 3 series touring into an M3 that’s perfectly fine just don’t use stolen parts, also make sure you mention to the insurance company it’s got an engine swap. If you can’t do it legitimately then these are the consequences.
@@siz_tan what are they gonna do with the parts??!!! because they dont have any cars to put it on
Problem was it was registered as a 320d
the engines can be swapped plug and play and the chassis reinforced, difference between an M3 and a stock car is the wide body witch has nothing to do with structural integrity.
Turns out the cars not stolen the police had to reimburse the owner 🤣🤣
Just read this myself was hoping to find an update on youtube nothing yet
@Logan Every part has a unique identifiying number. Production date & Part number 😎
@Logan DNA marked parts bro lol
really?
The parts were suspected to be stolen but suspicion isn’t proof. Owner reimbursed 80k for car, made up of parts, car and Labour to build.
Didn’t scrap the wheels tho did use lol 😂
Exactly hmm. Maybe they was stolen too one theif to anouther
Handling stolen goods 🤔
every scrap yard takes the wheels off the cars its a normal practice
😂 Meanwhile not doing a damn thing about all the knife attacks. How proud you sound... Your little rainy island just got even sadder
Why couldn’t they sell the parts and do something helpful with the money??!
well if you want to change some of the car part details you need to change on the long book , simple easy
Correct. Owner never did that - It was still registered as 2.0L Diesel
The reason why he never done that insurance can be more expensive when you add different part
@@mazambeliqbal3487 Plus it's cheaper road tax on a 2.0 Diesel than 3.0 Petrol.
then aprehend the car and auction it off as a legalized 3.0 petrol then, why waste time and money doing this?
God I'm glad I live in the US. I can swap a twin turbo V8 into my Miata and it be completely legal. I dont have to register it any differently. It's still a Miata.
So the car was stolen and instead of giving it back they crushed it what sense does that even make like I can’t imagine you getting you car stolen then you here instead of you getting you car back they just crushed it
the car was made with multiple stolen M cars and registered as a completely different car and instead of creating a liability where someone else can get legal trouble for running stolen parts they were unaware of,they had to destroy it all which was the best move.
Those parts could have been reused instead of being crushed these bastards dont know how expensive bmw parts are
I like how they had a problem with parts of the car being from other stolen vehicles, so instead of returning those parts to their owners, they just crushed the car. Imagine if they did that with other things as well:
Police: So we know you recently reported that someone had stolen you phone, and we have great news - it's been found!
Some guy: Awesome! Where can I collect it?
Police: Aw that won't work mate, we've set fire to it.
G: ?
Police: Yeah it was stolen property. We've made a great video of it on our Instagram though, you want the link? It's really gaining some traction!
everyone loses, literaly everyone lmao how fucking sad
Insurance companies want them crushed 2/3 of the moncque chassis was two different cars why not just buy a 3 series touring then its only parts that are stolen and owner gets the keep that, hope wasn’t a genuine buyer who got scammed with the modified car purchase
They cant really give them there car back if its cut in half!
Yes we found your kidnapped daughter. Where is she. Err we put her through the crusher she was stolen. 😪
@@izzystuart7798 no I think it was just parts from different cars 🤔
$10k just in break disks smh
What a waste 🤦♂️
This is just downright disgusting
Must suck to be British
how the hell has the steering wheel not been shredded up!!
its the owners fault for not checking the car to see if the vins match up
Okay fair enough the car was made up of several stolen vehicles. And we know that BMW never made a M3 Estate between 2014-2018 but u didn't have to destroy the car!. It was working perfectly fine and it would be cool to see an M3 Estate on the road.
Birmingham? Yep I know what person that is. Typical scammer
RIP M3😭😭😭😭😭😭
So basically, in the United Kingdom, it is illegal to represent yourself as a player when you only have the money to afford a 3 series sport wagon and pretend to have a M3 Competition sport wagon by creating one out of stolen parts. That’s fair. 👍🏻
I wish we had those laws in the United States, especially in wanna-be cities like Miami and Los Angeles where you do tend to see a lot of these posers with their fake _M Series_ abominations.
They stole the wheels and exhaust off it too
Tbf to the guy who did it,it was clean as fuck
The amount of pain I'm goin through rn is unbearable
So proud they are
Well, that's a damn shame. That was a nice M3 estate.
Did even watch the video?!?!
Is not a real thing. Is a _Frankenbimmer_ Made out of parts from stolen M3s.
Unwise..
could have sold it and put the money elsewhere useful
That takes brains tho 😃
Why not break it.. I would have loved to buy the steering wheel
First dibs on the headlights please😅❤
This was a built show car on off bet ot came from Birmingham the capital of Britains chop shops. We had 42 cars stolen last year where i live all keyless entry all 2019 or newer four were found including both teslas and we live in a nice area leafy area
Dodgy plates are attached to dodgy cars! Why do people advertise a car that was not what the plate said it was
If they did this in N.Y there would be no cars in Washington Heights!! Lol
WHY
These officers are complete clowns. They coilsve saved the car
So this what Im seeing as more and teslas come to life...
Rip bmw
It's too bad that the people who stole the other cars this was made of and the driver of the car weren't strapped inside as it went thorugh the crusher.
turns out the car wasn't actually stolen lmfao. i guess these idiots just wanted a reason to crush a perfectly good M3
@@haruguchimane6921 Are you illiterate. What’s a car without an engine, and what if that engine is stolen?
Yikes
Bang pop
Pretty ingenious if you ask me.
In the trash where it rightfully belongs.
🤡
bad at the game
You belong there too
