Very plausible, and the guy with hands on head is the other car driver. The other two in the photo next to the CSL look more like journalists or BMW UK field personnel types. Despite everyone thinking the driver ran out of talent in the moist, or something spicey with the car's dynamics, I think we'll learn it was just a boring and unfortunate traffic accident.

I concur with you both.

I don't even think it was a reviewer in the car because I see no cameras anywhere. If the roundabout theory holds, then it's actually a case of the CSL being driven too slow rather than too fast

Cold tires and someone was too much on throttle. Sucks to have done that.

What exactly makes this 1 of 1? Shouldn't it read 1 of 1000?

This may have been the only one in the UK. It's a pre-production car so it wouldn't count anyway.

It looks like that right rear tire may have been 1.5PSI low!

Ha. I've become that guy who holds out for my 1-2 coffees a day. If it's not up to scratch I'll bin it and find another. Life's too short.

I rather see this than it displayed at my dentist’s garage collection. It’s a car, sh*t happens. Hopefully no one is injured.
