PistonHeads BMW M4 at Goodwood

Enjoy a 360-degree view of Goodwood from the front of the PH-specced BMW M4

---

The BMW M4 optioned up by the PistonHeads community has had its first public outing at the Goodwood Moving Motor Show, competition winners Matt Orman and Cameron Milne enjoying a run up the hillclimb in the car in the summer sunshine. Not before we had a go first though, the essential PH shakedown including - cough - scrubbing the rear tyres in and laying down some rubber on Lord March's drive. This being the Moving Motor Show and therefore more regulated than the Festival of Speed we weren't strictly meant to and, yes, we got a bit of a ticking off.

The M4 prepares for its public debut

Via the magic of 360-degree video you can enjoy a panoramic view of our run, exuberant departure off the line included, by hitting play and then moving your mouse around for a unique viewpoint of the Goodwood hillclimb. Mobile users can click here for a fixed view - make sure you try the 360 version on your desktop when you get the chance.

Credit to everyone who pitched in with a spec too; the first BMW Individual upgraded M4 in the country 'our' car's Tanzanite Blue looked classily sinister under the Goodwood sunshine while - as you'll hear - the sports exhaust sounds the business too. Anyone who saw Tiff Needell driving it over the Festival of Speed will confirm it goes sideways pretty well too. Obviously we'd have done the same but our chaperone turned the DSC back on after our burnout...

Use your mouse to control the 360 vid, holding and dragging to find the perspective you want. It can also be controlled by clicking in the player and using the cursor keys.

Enjoy!
