    After 12 years in BMW's it's time to move on.

    Just done the deal on a V8V, picking it up Friday. I cannot wait, the noise the MC made was good this thing is amazing.

    Congrats! V8V is on my list if I ever decide to sell the MC - my only concern being (a) reliability and (b) the cost of parts should (a) be a problem!

        congrats, thats a big step up from a Z4M and a great achievement.

        it must be a totally different car in every way.
        cant imagine the performance being a massive amount better? i think the acceleration is prob around the same for both of those cars?

        the V8V gives a more suave/sophisticated look for the driver


        i do like the V8's, but i think they look too tame! (prob cos they are )

        if i could ever afford one it would be this model (V12)

                  dan, it's only the 4.3, couldn't stretch any further....

                  Aparently the 4.3 is noisier than the 4.7.

                  I'll be at Lanestone House (spelling?) all weekend. Shame I should be out

                      Pre 2007 cars were the loudest. After this, there was a revised tailpipe finisher that dampened the noise a touch.
