dont know maybe he was speeding, then it was fully mod for a track for the road.

ps, that car can be found on 28car (thats how I found the video as I was looking at 2 seater cars on the market) , if its hasnt been sold and you dont have anything else to do, go down and take a look

I saw cmts from other e60 owners who swear new plugs make a big difference after 50k km, half of the bmw recommended mileage.

I thought the drivers attitude in that video was funny in that video, no other reasons intended. A friend once told me that in hk, only engine related mods are considered illegal but I have never bothered to find out if this is true and what engine related actually means. in any case, police will get upset if the intention of mods is to go group speeding and I think thats the reason why moded cars got impounded. mod cars are not exactly hard to spot with lowered suspension, big brakes and exhaust but I have never seen one stopped by the police other than those caught speeding at speed trap. so why did this mrs got pulled, I guess only the police can tell. I have a friend in the police force, I am seeing him this sunday, can ask for some guideline and shared with those interested in our next meet.

well for the insurance I ask if moding the car is OK and he said that you can change any thing on the car as long as you dont change the engine or add supercharg or turbo or chip it.
But with the police that a diffrent story.
If they are not in a good mod then they will tow your car to check.
I also have 3 relative in the police and 2 are in the transport devision.
They sayed to me that as long as your not street racing they will not tow it.
also they mostly tow jap cars very race euro cars.

I was at a meet with the stepwgn and 5 of the guys had alot of mod and they had to be check by the police what a joke 7 seater be towed
