135i on Top Gear Australia soon!!

Dodger · 04-09-2009, 08:48 PM

I was speaking to a mate that went to see Top Gear Australia taping the other night and he said they had a match race at Wakefield Park between a 135i and an Evo X, he said the Evo was quicker through the corners but the 1 series was faster down the straight.
Looking forward to seeing it.

Any idea of date ?

Cool, that will be interesting....

Nice one, thanks for letting us all know. I reckon it'll be an interesting review. Although not sure it's terribly relevant in terms of comparison.

they have already done a review on the 135i, will be good to see it go up against the evo though. its expected that the AWD evo will do better around corners and the 3ltr twin turbo 6 will catch it on the straight. a really good review was done by motor trend a while ago link is here

Decent. Anybody know when the new Aussie season of TG starts?

Dodger · 04-11-2009, 05:09 PM

New series starts on May 11th, I don't know which episode the 135i is featured.

I wonder what time they do. If they are not in the 11s, then I will be really laughing.

Perheps if they get really shit times, they just don't show them.

They are far from a racing driver... what sort of comparo is that?

Aussie Stig... pssttt.
