Default TopGear BMW M-Power history (with Tiff Needell)
:arrow: This is a BBC TopGear video, reviewing the history the ///M lineage through 1997/98 (the speaker makes mention of the forth coming E39 M5 in 1999). The video runs through the M535is through E36 EVO M3, VERY briefly touching on the E34 M5. Runtime is approx 7:16.
Enjoy

by the way - the topic is wrong - the older driver isn't Tiff Needell.

Tiff is now working for 5th gear.

I know that now, yes, but at the time of this vid he was working for the BBC/TopGear, and if it isn't Tiff Needell then who the hell is it

I understand now, Tiff Needell is in it, you had me feeling like a moron just then, I thought that since it wasn't Tiff Needell, who the hell was it

You were problebly confused with the other BMW M-power vid I posted, from the Isle Of Man

Yes - he tested the M5 in a trip to the south of France, to Pau... and then a track tests at Pau-Arnos, an awesome racetrack where I had the privilege to race back in July

... and thanks for the video BTW, even if it was posted on 14th July 2004!!
Please check when I posted that I wanted to see Tiff test the new E60 V10 M5.
