A man has taken his anger to a whole other level, after smashing up his £100,000 BMW with a sledgehammer in protest at what he claims is a failure to fix the problems with his motor.
Pourmohseni Hadi and a friend were filmed taking a hammer and an axe to his black BMW M6 outside the annual Frankfurt Auto Show - the world's biggest motor show - after Hadi's frustration reached boiling point.
He claims he has had to deal with multiple problems with his vehicle since buying it in 2008, including vibrations, rattling and severe jolts during gear changes.
Hadi, who lives in Italy, said he has taken the car to several Italian BMW workshops, but all attempts to fix the problems have been unsuccessful.
"BMW Italia and the Munich headquarters have pushed the responsibility back and forth," he told German newspaper Bild. "I have written BMW a letter - no response. Now I answer! With this action!"
"Now I feel better," he added.
He threatened to repeat the dramatic protest in front of the Bundestag in Berlin if the faults was not rectified.
A BMW spokesman said they would look into the background of Mr Hadi's case.
