BMW ActiveHybrid 7

Another hybrid by BMW after the X6 I recently shot. Main difference is that this one can’t drive without the internal combustion engine running, and that you can watch TV in the back of this one…

BMW 335i Cabrio DCT High Executive

July seems to be convertible-month for me, with even more coming up after this one. The weather was much nicer this time, so you won’t hear me complain… Also helps that I’m a big fan of the 335i, that sounds even better when you’re not separated from it’s exhaust sound by a fixed roof. The DCT plays along nicely, with the occasional exhaust popping at up shifts and great sounding rev matching action on downshifts.

BMW ActiveHybrid X6

Now here’s a new one… hybrid and fun! :lol: Imagine yourself being CEO of a larger company… During the crisis you decided that your company needed to be more green and eco, so you have all your employees driving Priuses and Civic Hybrids. After they start nagging you about your gas guzzling SUV, you decide to step up and get yourself a hybrid. A hybrid with a V8 and a combined output of 485hp and 780Nm, capable of doing 0-100 km/h in 5.6s! 8)

BMW 320d Efficient Dynamics Edition

Last tuesday I went to Baarn for Rijtesten.nl, for the introduction of the BMW 320d Efficient Dynamics Edition. We were greeted with a great lunch (as usual) and luckily with cars in a non-boring color! :D Luckily some of the attendants were late, so we didn’t have to share a car. Time was limited for pictures, as usual for events like these, but apart from an unfriendly forester complaining about permits everything went fine. 8)

BMW M5

Last weekend we had a tryout for Driving-Fun.com, a new website aimed at car-enthusiast. Target was to produce a test + pictures in limited time, with a tester that I hadn’t met before. Luckily I always try to work quick, so having only an hour to test and photograph the car wasn’t a problem for ‘my’ team. :) I really like how the results turned out in such a short timespan.
