'It's too late'
The widow of a police officer who died in a faulty car said a decision to stop selling the models to forces "should have been taken years ago".
Kathryn Dumphreys said it was "the first step in the right direction" but "too little, too late for Nick". Welcoming BMW’s decision, Mrs Dumphreys said: “Although it is too little too late for Nick and our family, BMW’s decision to stop supplying cars to UK police forces with immediate effect is the first step in the right direction.
“As we heard during the inquest, the rate of the engine failures in these BMWs was described by the independent engineering expert as ‘extraordinary’ and by the coroner as ‘startling’.
