Almost any video featuring a BMW M1 usually gets our attention. The car is genesis as far as BMW M is concerned, and that's quite a significant accolade to hold. That it's also one of BMW's most beautiful cars further adds to its significance.
Niki Lauda + M1 Procar = very cool pic
But add 'Nurburgring GP' and 'Prince Leopold of Bavaria' to the video description and clicks are guaranteed. Turns out said Prince has competed in both Australian and world touring cars with BMW, and remains a fairly handy driver; he also remains a racing adviser for BMW. That makes him a very cool prince as well as OAP (he's 70 according to Wikipedia) in our book.
The M1 Procar sounds simply divine, its 470hp and 1020kg powering it around the GP circuit at a fairly indecent speed. And seeing as the video is just an on-board, we had to feature some pictures also; it's a spectacular looking thing.
Should the video cause a hankering for an M1, the PH Classifieds currently features one M1 road car. The price? Well, if you have to ask...
