Hmm...let's sit back and watch J@mes celebrate his 'victory'.

Cycling bit was funny, for the first few minutes.

Porsche was epic.

[dutch]

That porsche was awesome the blue flames from those exhausts, real or topgear effect?

[MarkX]

Not seen it yet, is the Porsche as good as the Mclaren?

[dutch]

Might even be better

[mickdj]

I thought the flames were there to much to be real.

[mjhamilton]

He is right about the 1m - no rear space and no boot - it is a silly car and totally pointless

Do want the Porsche though - that was an awesome vehicle

[Sedge]

Never has someone fallen from grace so quickly.

It was a stereotypical view of cyclists but if you ask drivers what annoys them, regardless of wheels, it'll be the same things; it's just cyclists are an easy target. Except when they ride on the pavement Generally I find that, as he found riding around London, neither party wants to get involved with the other. Leave some space and all is well.

Porsche was epic but I think I would rather have the P1

well, the thousands of people over the world who've bought 1 series' have a different opinion, as does every other car review of it, not to mention Clarkson is a colossal bellend and is wrong about everything :rotflmao:

You're wrong but hey.




The boot space is 360 litres which against the A3 (365 litres) and VW Golf which is actually a much larger car and only has 380 litres of space, its actually bang on the money.

Just an FYI, the new A class has a 341 litre boot and your Kia Soul you just sold has a boot space of 340 litres and you did perfectly ok with that.

Quite enjoyed that episode. The cyclist videos made me

Flames from the Porsche were real afaik. Epic, but looks quite fat compared to the P1...

SIARPC was boring as usual.

I wonder if Jesse gets bored of people just wanting to talk to him about BB all the time

Wouldn't have thought so. It was what made him, and he'll still get royalty cheques forever from it as long as its shown and syndicated.

M135i looks to be a great car but seems right about the boot and the rear space, pretty cramped car compared to other hatches. Could you even fit a child behind a normal sized driver........(6ft +, not you 5 ft dwarves).

My daughter fits in the back with her Recaro car seat no problem and her buggy fits in the boot, and I'm 6ft. :salut:

dwarf children.

??? I have been in the M1 and had to fold myself up in the back to get in, I am an 'average' 6'1" and thought even someone a good few inches shorter would have suffered the same issues - I wouldn't have wanted to go any long distances in that car unless in the front seats which were fine - Clarkson ruined his credibility on that review when he span out and basically implied the car is dangerous with is total BS

.......... was I in the wrong car?!?!... do you know something I don't about the laws of space and time?? I forgot how much BMWlove there is on this forum :samuri:

Are you talking about the current M135i or the previous 1M?

[dandemoraliser]

i've also set the seat in the new 1 series to how i would be positioned in it and got in the back.

it gives pitful amounts of legroom in the back.
