Because the drains block up and end up flooding the 'bucket' that the motor is stored in.

This causes it to corrode and fail.

The 2 solutions are:
  1. Pay BMW £2000 to put a new motor in the existing location which will flood in a few months
  2. Pay someone £300 to fix/recondition it and then move it out of the wet bucket location and into the dry boot
