I've been loving the content without Alex - that sounds harsh, but I mean it's great to see limelight available for you two to shine. Taylor's V2 content has been awesome (can't wait to see the OG 635 back up and running), but it's nice to see Rory get involved too. Very interested to see more content like this, and from Chris as well! He seems like a really nice chap, and I would love to see more of him on camera.

There's a way to fix the steering. There's a large ring between the electric motor and the column. Loosen the 2 bolts and adjust it a few millimetres. It adjusts the position of the worm gear on the column. I've done it on mine and the steering is perfect.

Aside from the Valve gasket and electrical waterpump it had no problems and the power and dynamic is just perfect for public roads.

Clarkson roasted the Z4 for being design by stupid yanks who didn't know anything about suspension. Saying that the ride was absolutely unacceptable.

Very much enjoying the v2 content but I definitely feel like we need the video of the z4 returning to the ring as part of a road trip so Misha can give it a proper pasting on the Nordschlife. It feels like unfinished business having taken it out there in a fairly ropey state, then spending all of Rory's pocket money sorting it out and making it more powerful, and then selling it on before we know how good it is at the ring!!

So, unless I missed something, this is a solid round abouts 30hp with an intake and exhaust (Albeit bespoke). As well as a tune I'm assuming? If that is correct, that is impressive. Well done, 300whp from an NA motor is very satisfying and fun to drive. Not the fastest thing to race, but that is very usable power and reliable. TLDR: I know that the power gains are much higher than that as it was below stock power levels due to its age. I just consider that made up with the much needed maintenance.

@@AI-Records24 It was the last year of the recipe that made M cars great in my opinion. Electronic steering of the time was horrendous and felt disconnected to the road and turbo lag was still a thing. You can't compare to today's cars as they are near 20 years old now. I'm not saying the new ones are bad, it's just if you want to experience what the original M cars were about, a very "manual" environment, then they are great to do so. All "physical" elements, manual box, hydraulic steering, naturally aspirated. You had to drive it properly to get the best out of it. Modern cars are a bit soulless like that. Take a Golf R for example. My 80 year old mother could drive that fast as the car does all of the work.

I like the looks of these but i reckon you could get a CLK 55 and manual swap it for the same or similar money and they are 360bhp bullet proof V8's from the factory.

I know exactly what you mean when you say it sounds almost like a porsche, and if I would be more specific the mezger era. That is the dream bmw straight 6 noise, much better than the e46 csl, just a throaty, high pitched, roar. 13:58

Slight correction Taylor... The N53 was the last N/A 6 cylinder BMW produced. But this came with a load of reliability issues so the N52 is definitely the one to choose.

I've always liked the Z4 Coupe, somehow the proportions have always looked perfect to me and I thought it's better looking than the convertible. These days, coupe or convertible, the design is aging superbly. The way that red Fiesta went backwards... Rory was not hanging about on that pull.
