So are we really saying that BMW is real?  It must, must be a photoshop!

Eh?

Are you talking about the M5 and it's exhaust?
If you are then yes it's real. I've had a look underneath mine a few times and the exhaust looks the same as the one in the picture, except mine's still on the car.

Don't know if you've ever tried it but if you ever come a bit further down the A470 from the Mallwyd junction with the 458 and take it to Newtown, then take the A483 south from Newtown for a couple of miles, you can get onto the B4355 from Dolfor to Knighton. Excellent road. You can then join onto the 4113 to Ludlow. Broadly similar route to what you have. I'm sure you'd enjoy the 4355  


In that area south of the A458 and west of the A49 in Shropshire and into Wales there are some great driving roads. Just watch out for tractors

The 4368 from Clun to Kerry is pretty good too  and has a brake-wilting section at the northwest end

Thanks for the advice Turbonutter - I'll look out for those roads next time!

No problems Alf - you'll probably recognize them - Autocar have used them several times but a lot of people haven't twigged where they are ....... unlike the EVO triangle
