Top Gear, Series 8

Top Gear (2002-present) is a BAFTA and Emmy Award winning BBC television series about motor vehicles, mainly cars. more »

[on the approach the BMW M Division took when developing the Z4M]

Richard:
So on this car, they've thrown out the fancy electronic power steering for a more old-fashioned system that they prefer. They've also got rid of those ridiculous run-flat tyres, and they've not messed about with any fancy gearboxes either. They've fitted it with a proper old-fashioned manual.

Richard:
[voiceover] That is a set of confident decisions. So naturally, you'd be forgiven for approaching any corner with a similar amount of confidence.

[The Z4M nearly runs off the edge of the track in a corner]

Richard:
[countersteering furiously] Whoa! Whoa! Understeer - ! [recovering control] ... Bloody hell! I was not expecting that.
