Whilst on my way to Germany....

Nice one sixspeed. HOw stable was it at those speeds? I need to make a trip to germany.

I thought you had done more than 29K ???

I am sure I had read somewhere on here you had done near to 60K in the M.

Exactly what I was wondering when I saw it on Facebook.. was this a while ago?

& yes... where's this SC ? 8)

It had 41,000 miles in April

Great example of what these cars can do!

i would love to go to germany and try that out

Wow! Probably something nearly every owner would be keen to try if Germany was a bit closer .

Your car looks fantastic and the sound is great, especially when you lifted off at the end.

A friend of mine had brief early-morning trip to Germany recently and saw an indicated 140. Apparently the car was amazingly stable and got there quickly and easily without the need for any throttle-mashing.

Like some of the other posters have asked, it would be nice to know how stable it is as the speed gets higher.

It's more stable than the Caymans at 160 mph, if that's any help

I'd rate it as stable and drove at 125-135 for about hour once

At 160 mph the Z4MC felt fine, apart from the horizon rushing towards me at a fantastic rate.

In the roadster, it stays very stable as well however above 120 mph, the wind (top down of course) gets really pressurised. Even at 170 it still felt very, very solid on the road (bit noisy with the top down though).

I think I was driving behind you in the rain today! (just for a mile or. I was in the interlagos blue Z4MC)
Can't be too many Z4MCs around...especially a white one with carbon roof!
That's one nice setup you've got for your car.
If you are from around that area, I might catch sight of you again!

 

[sixspeed]

Taka, whereabouts was that?

As for the video and mileage questions - no, it's not clocked! I didn't say that that was a recent video! The car is now on 48k and just come up for its Inspection 2, which I'm not looking forward to (price wise!).

Car felt pretty stable at those speeds though, I have to say. I did a similar speed once in my old TVR, and that needed 2 lanes just to stay on the road! This was effortless in comparison!

It was down the A24 from Epsom around 9pm. You pulled over into an garage (I think it was Esso).
