No car should ever do that speed on the public road,and i aint one to preach but that is just stupid .plenty of tracks to do that on and if you can afford an M5 you can afford the price for the track day .

So much for being restricted to 155 mph

I'd wonder what would happen if he hit a pigeon at that speed

[aido]

Well seeing as he's left his email on it and the way the police seem to be cracking down on videos on the net I think a certain Mr Craig Greer can expect them to come knocking sometime soon :o

I wouldn't worry about a pigeon, its the other cars and possibly pedestrians you got the think about.

Fingers crossed it'll be 12 months in jail, a permanent ban and his car crushed :tsktsk:

just crush the car ........................with him in it !

[Fidgits]

ignoring the above arguments... am i the only one thinking it looked a bit boring and effortless?

surely the thrill of driving fast is man and machine one complete entity, feeling the grip, camber, looking ahead to predict the road... not pottering along like your doing 80mph...

[Scarlet Pimpernell]

'twas probably a stolen/borrowed car anyway :o ...would you really do that to your own £65k+ motor? Even if I could afford to I wouldn't, unless it was a track day...

You guys of course are right - lock him up!

It's been de-restricted, so it could have been an Alpina or Brabus type convert?

[GarethParry]

and correct me if im wrong but thats not the M5 is it.

M5 is a motorway unles im being stupid and motorways have blue signs on them, that one has green signs and is a run of the mill dual carriageway.

Anyways that detracts from the matter, i couldnt see the clock was to bouncy have to take his word for it that it was 180 but the guy is obviously a complet CNUT guys like him bring bad name to guys who own nice cars, modded cars etc etc but drive sensibly.

He deserves a nice 24 month driving ban and 12mths jail for that me thinks

[Rikos]

Think i'd agree with the ban and sentence what a t****r

There is never a copper around when you need one!!!!!

Probably pulling someone over for wearing a burberry cap at the time!!

[GarethParry]

my question is what is the guy trying to prove.

A dyno can prove your car goes fast but all he proved is that in a striahg line he can go quick.

Get him on a track then se if he can really drive or is just a muppet

[Tango]

Reminds me of that old joke

'What's the difference between Hedgehogs and BMW's?

[Rikos]

Go on!

[lee_iceman]

Go on!

:D

Well a hedgehog has the pricks on the outside ;)

[Rikos]

Thats a fair point

[Mike_B]

I don't suppose he was worrying about the pigeon. At that speed it would go straight through the windscreen and probably kill the driver. Certainly it'd knock him out - and then 2 tonnes of high-speed steel could go absolutely anywhere.

Wise words....

I 100% agree

[Unregistered_User]

Fool. He doesn't deserve a car like that.

Agree with all of the above - deserves a good ban, jail sentence. I don't think the car should be crushed - just sold on or returned to BMW.

Muppet and I hope he gets caught.
