BMW Dealer Donates Car to Emergency Services

The emergency service in Budaörs, just southwest of Budapest, has received a very special donation: a BMW 530d model to support the emergency services, courtesy of local dealer BMW Rack Auto.

The 24-hour emergency service has been available in the Budaörs and Törökbálint area since 2001, providing ambulance and emergency services and assisting GPs 24 hours a day. The 22-strong emergency crew in Budaörs performs the above tasks with a single car.

Today, however, Ádám Rédei, Managing Director of Rack Autó Ltd., handed over to them the keys of a new ambulance and emergency service car. Tamás Wittinghoff, mayor of Budaörs, and Sándor Elek, mayor of Törökbálint, were also present at the handover ceremony.

"When we were approached by the Budaörs ambulance station about their need for an ambulance, there was no question that we, as a local dealer, would come to their aid. They really need a strong, fast and safe car. Therefore, we are proud to support the noble cause of saving lives and believe that this car can make the hard work of the Budaörs ambulance service even more successful," Ádám Rédei said.

The equipment requirements of an emergency car are similar to those of an ambulance – it comes with the same life-saving equipment, instruments and medicines to patients in need of urgent care. When alerted to a critically ill patient, the ambulance with its blue distinctive markings is able to help the patient in need as quickly and efficiently as possible in the Budaörs and Törökbálint area. A BMW 530d perfectly meets the requirements of an ambulance: fast, precise and above all reliable, according to a statement by the company.
