I'm guessing you're a detailing nerd (a little like myself although I accept mass produced machine built cars aren't perfect)

What I cant get my head around is how my local BMW dealer has at least 100 cars, brand new and unregistered, sitting in a carpark like this.

That is simply unacceptable in my eyes!

I hope the paintwork on the Pistonheads M4 was better than the paintwork on the M4 which was in the BMW showstand. To give them credit they seem to have resolved the orange peel which afflicted the wings of E92 M3's, but look at this photo below - that is appalling for what is a £60,000 car.

More to the point that BMW passed it for show use...

I'm surprised BMW's marketing team haven't picked up on the crap finish and given it a fancy name.

those times are over, the channel sold out to NBC and they only repost tv junk on their youtube channel now.

I thought the NBC stuff was just an add-on? I thought Chris had been filming the next series of videos and they would be out soon.

Spoke to Tiff on Sunday, top bloke and I have to say the M4 blue colour is stunning in the flesh (regardless of orange peel) so much better than in the photos, did not spend any time looking at the car as there were so much more better stuff to drool over.
