Speedo Question

beemerbill · 09-20-2013, 12:53 AM

I got a loaner 328I when I took my M5 in for break in service. I had my MAX with me and checked the difference between the speedo and the gps/MAX. It was only 1mph difference all the way up to 80MPH. At 85MPH it grew to 2MPH difference.... strange, LOL

are you kidding that speed is a 30 day ban minimum now and a fine that if you can afford an m5 will likely be around £1200

yup its a joke mate.

A friend of mine got a fine just over a grand for doing 56 in a 30 because he earns a decent wage.

Scrotes doing 100 in clapped out fiats get away with £80 fine! shocking.

You have to laugh at many people though, I just came back from London and everyone with 4 wheels wants to race, this guy was sooo close on a bend from the M11 to A11( AUDI RSTT), once on the straight I just left him for dead, then slowed and waved

They never learn.

Bow to the monster.
