You hero! I did 155 on the limiter in the 840Ci on the Dusseldorf ring road - at night, racing an Audi RS4! needed the front fogs on at that speed.

Top man!

Shame you don't hit the autobahns on the way to the 'Ring, that would mean some fun.

its fucking mad out there,we was in the middle lane cruisin at 120,saw this big dirty audi coming up from behind and shot past us like we were doing 30mph,he must of been doing 140+

Mon Dec 04, 2006 4:32 pm

What engine have you got under there??

Mon Dec 04, 2006 4:32 pm

superb

Mon Dec 04, 2006 4:34 pm

hubble its a 2.7 alpina spec engine.

when we hit that speed she still had a bit more in her,but didnt want to chance it because there are some real stupid and dodgy drivers out there.

Mon Dec 04, 2006 4:36 pm

Mind you. I didn't see much E30 action in the rear view!! Both cars limited to 155 so no more playtime!

Brilliant! loving it!

I wann ago on the autobahn.lol Wouldn't get 150 but still.

we went near humburg,it was about 400 miles from calais,it was a bit of a drive butwell worth it.

Mon Dec 04, 2006 5:00 pm

Superb Vid Fella

I came back from Scotland a few years ago on the M6 at 125 for a couple of miles. Don't think I'd have the bottle to do 150 though if I had the power, especially in an E30. If I'm ging to do 150 it'll have to be in an M5

Mon Dec 04, 2006 5:02 pm

yeh i know what you meanmate,at 150 it was shaky(as you can see in the vid)but thought it would be worse than that.

Mon Dec 04, 2006 5:02 pm

Impressive

Aah, my old neck of the woods - well Hamburg city centre. A better drive is from Hook of Holland/Rotterdam but the ferry is dearer.

I bet you were buzzing. I'd love to take her over to Germany though. Knowing you can put your foot down and not worry about the Polizei coming after you. My Director and co. went over last year in his Porsche GT2 190+ . His colleague was getting a little bit nervous so he eased off.

"Get out the way you CNUT"

"1 fcuking 50"

Haha quality, good effort, that must have been at about 6200+ rpm! And i notice the temp gauge was sat perfect

Mon Dec 04, 2006 5:44 pm

lol funny that vid....130 was enough for me.....i was posted over there few years ago-have some fun carnt you?

Mon Dec 04, 2006 5:58 pm

Nice one - it's good fun!!!

My 8 series does it far too easily (My avatar shows 160!!!!!) - still might get it delimited and see if i can do the 180mph!!!!

Mon Dec 04, 2006 6:01 pm

Mon Dec 04, 2006 6:07 pm

Nice vid mate

Looked so easy, mine is crying out at indicated 120!

Mon Dec 04, 2006 6:34 pm

I crucified a 911 C2 in the Merc E500 I had briefly a few years ago .... (another of Pacerpete's finds!!)

243kph indicated on the M6. LHD's great- you can see the whites of their eyes as you blow their doors off!

How do you go faster for Ã‚£6K? Stunning car - looked like a stock '124... went like the fcuking wind. The Porsche driver must have sh1t himself!!

Mon Dec 04, 2006 6:43 pm

excellent mate top job

got the sport to just over 130 on a private section of the m1

the day i got her 2 e46 m3s shot past me so thort id give chase

kept up pretty well to 130 then they were gone

Mon Dec 04, 2006 7:04 pm

Cracking video Shaz - great narration too!

Saw an indicated 140 out of my Zone-chipped 2.5 recently, here in Blighty. 150's fab though. Was there alot of wind noise at that speed in a Cab?

Mon Dec 04, 2006 8:08 pm

i hit 245 km/h on the autobahn in a merc i hired when i lived on the dutch/german border.its great being able to drive that fast legally

Mon Dec 04, 2006 9:49 pm

awesome mate

Mon Dec 04, 2006 9:52 pm

remember going to the ring was doing 160 in an s4 and some guy in a merc was just going by the germans are crazy with those limits

Mon Dec 04, 2006 9:56 pm

I was 21 when I had my first quick car, a V12 XJ-S manual. Did 150+ on the A43 between Bicester and Oxford.

no you didnt,because that would be illegal.i think you meant you did 150+ on a private stretch of road
