What a great little 6 part video series here on the special relationship between BMW and South Africa, including some of the rarities and market only cars South Africa got.

Episode 1 - Celebrating 50 years of BMW in South Africa

Episode 2 - How BMW's South African Racecars were born

Episode 3 - The M1-engined 745i - The secret South African creation

Episode 4 - The BMW 333i and 325iS - The story of very special SA-only 3 Series

Episode 5 - The story behind BMW's iconic TV adverts (my favourite)

And because why not, here is that glorious E39 M5 land speed record TV advert:

Episode 6 - Mzansi's love for BMW's M Cars
