Exactly. The Mazda did what they'd do in any situation (They were even crawling out of the junction, the speed of the Lambo caused the accident, by being unable to stop) and was hit by someone going over the speed limit and who wasn't anticipating any risks, which you really have to do in...

2700 miles in one month. Average fuel consumption of 42.5mpg. Not bad considering I can now over take nearly everything.

Oyster suffers wear very badly though. One of our fleet cars has it and its had 3 replacement drivers seats and the bolsters still die after about 15k.

Or borrow £20k have car for 2 years sell car for 14k and pay that back. same diff.

Any of the Staffline Ginetta?

This is why I don't get the people who said this video isn't evidence. There are loads of fixed objects in it which have a defined length, and at 30 frames a second you can be fairly accurate which way you slice it up. I'm fairly certain from impact to the nose clearing the front of the Nissan...

In the vid the Lambo takes 0.2 sec to travel the length of a Qashqai (With frame rates it was probably less that this). A Qashqai is 4.37m long. So 0.2 sec to go 4.3m = 21.5 meters/second AFTER the impact. 21.5m/s is 48.5mph. So yeah I'd say he was speeding.

Who's the rep for this area?

I'll only be down for the meal and a sleep, then its back up to work!

b**ch please. I love my HUD.

There are some ones in the US running 400bhp but I can't see them lasting long

It was dropping on the Diesel after consulting a 'focus group'.

f**k me thats bad.

Yup, the cost is loaded into the fact it has a warranty on the engine and drive train.

Its a diesel saloon car I do 30k a year in its not supposed to be exciting. I'd have bought another TVR if I wanted to be deaf and hot.

Twin turbo in this, one tiny variable vain one and an large one (none variable) which the small one draws air through to spin it up. M550d are a 370bhp triple turbo version of the same 3litre block.

Stupid quote thing!

The rate it does 90-100 is what it does 100-130 in, the 8 gears help, you only lose pace when in 7th at very silly speeds.

Cheers mighty boosh.

It won't work Colin as CS's display goes gay when embedding Vimeo and the permissions need the link to come from CS. Sorry.

At RS Tuning or where ever?

Warranty rip off yo.

You can get a Hartge map to 360bhp which retains warranty but its £1900....

Vimeo doens't like iPhones.

Taken from the F30 Forum. Last night I was heading back from Germany and had a minicam in the car. Pulled up after a toll booth, grabbed it out of boot and stuck it to side. Car had just under half a tank of French Esso and I had about 30kgs of camera equipment in the boot. Temp was 5 degrees...

Just no. Then I'd have a spacky huge M badge on it.

I'm betting it's so there's room for an ad blue tank as that was an option.

Sadly not. As I'd love one. I asked if they would fit the 63l tank the petrol models gets but it was a no go.

I have one huge issue with this car. It only has a 50l tank, so total range is less than 500 miles which isn't good enough really.
