Too bad the video is at night this is not an M3, this is a pair of lights into a pitch black night

Can't wait for some pics I always like M3 pics

Can't wait for the pics. Btw, did you respect the speed limits when shooting this vid? I don't know any roads in the neighbourhood of Keerbergen were you may drive 90+

hehe didn't go that fast when we shot this, just wanted to record the sound in 2th and 3th gear --> didn't work out that good, irl it's much sharper but the next videos will be shot with a digital videocamera instead of a photocamera
and no not one road where you can drive 90+ around here


btw any idea what this is going to cost me ; doing 110km/u where the limit is 50km/u (Keizerberg,Leuven bebouwde kom ) while overtaking where it's not allowed to overtake ops:

You mean the road leading to the Mechelsesteenweg, near the Abbey of Keizersberg? I didn't even know they sometimes put a speed trap over there.

If they caught you at that speed (with correction) you can say bye bye to your driver's license for some weeks. It will cost at least € 550 for speeding and € 300 for overtaking when it's not allowed (can be raised to 550 or more if this situation has to be issued by a court)

yes that road, i was going downhill in direct of the centre
there was a ford mondeo in the opposite direction BUT i didn't see a flash
the 2 cars behind my were also speeding and they've seen their flash, but also didn't see mine
maybee because i was driving on the other side of the round...

I had a fine couple of weeks of 300 Euro's for speeding, twice 150 on the same fucking day, with 62 minutes between the two flashes, it was direction Brussels near Aalst km pole(kilometerpaal) 19.2km, the first one I thought it wasn't for me and then DAMN second one I knew for sure...
But still thanks god to a slow Saxo I slowed down from 190 to 153, or else I would been screwed real good

For the speeding you would have to appear in court and that would cost you in between of 550 & 2750€. And you could lose your license for of 8 days till 5 YEARS.
Now that is system by the people for the people.. - and wouldn't you have had to pay extra taxes and surcharges to buy a car that was powerful enough to be fun to drive to begin with?
