“Absolutely love the Z4M but wouldn’t dare touch one.” I do understand why people can be cautious about them, particularly if they’ve read about the usual S54-related issues and the costs that can come with them. That said, I think the reputation for being frighteningly expensive to own is...

I don't think the vid is about the result. They pretty much knew the result in the first couple of mins. Nice to see these together being driven hard 15-20 years later

I wouldnt bother, mine was covered by a previous owner unless its immaculately clean the contact causes scratches and on black paint it will look awful in no time. Mines an E85 but with a consumer grade DA, pad and ultimate compound, it took forever to get them out and some i couldnt without we...

Being fully insured does not always mean receiving the service or settlement you expect when the worst happens. My Mini Clubman JCW was stolen in 2020 while it was at a garage for repairs, so it was not in my care at the time. Before the pandemic, it was probably worth around £18,000–£20,000...
