I'd still rather have the Z3 Brian !
It is very clever but not what you think it is
8 series convertible?
Yup and must have ticked every option.

That is a beast, Brian.
Probably take me a year to figure everything out.......Frankie
P.S. Sort of reminds me of my first visit to the UK where I rented this red VW diesel that had a setup where the engine stopped at every light. Kept thinking..This car needs some servicing.....Then it came to me that it's supposed to shut off at every light to save gas. Then it took me about 20 miles of city driving to figure out how to turn that option off. With YOUR car, It would take me 20 minutes to get it started and back it out of the driveway..................Frankie
Hi @FRANKIE i remember you at Rutland Water in the red VW and we all had a good laugh with you as you told us of you trials of driving in UK roads.
I think it has lane departure warning but haven't worked it out yet and won't as it goes back. It is over £100 K list price.
We've had a great laugh driving about in it today with the roof down of course.

Oh, God!! I remember going around round-abouts where I'm sitting in the car on the left side but positioning my body relative to the street as if I was sitting on the left side of the car. This puts the left side of the car in the right part of the lane on your left OR up and over the curb on the left side of the car as you enter a round-about..........................talk about a learning experience. @Rev saw me pull out on an oncoming truck as I was looking the wrong way down the street. Glad I didn't kill anyone............Frankie
Now we know why there are no roundabouts in the US.
No, No..............Now you know why they've been getting RID of circles in the US...............Frankie
If those headlights are similar to the ones fitted to the M2 you can leave the high beam on and it detects oncoming vehicles and blanks out the spot that blinds them without touching anything 
Yep got that on the GTIf those headlights are similar to the ones fitted to the M2 you can leave the high beam on and it detects oncoming vehicles and blanks out the spot that blinds them without touching anything
There’s a lot going on the back of that but bet it’s fun to drive.
and it's a diesel...... !
Had great fun in sport with the sound generator exhaust you neatly forget it's a diesel until itruns out of revs.
It is very light and easy to drive and 4 wheel steering takes a while to get used to. It weighs nearly 1900 kg so no lightweight and like all it's competitors 4 seats as long as those in the back have removable legs.
Its the Douglas Barder option
Looks like a bloody beast and ugly as one too, however, I wouldn't mind giving it a blast
