I'd always wanted to make a video like this and I finally got the time to do it with the long weekend recently.
It's bloody difficult. Now I know I never want to be a video editor

My Ride: 2006 525XI, Jet black on Dakota beige. Premium and winter packages. I consider myself a purist and intend to keep my car absolutely stock and shiny.
2008 328I Convertible, Sapphire black on beige interior. Premium package, NAV, iPod adapter.
Retired: 2002 325I, Titanium silver on black leather. Premium package. Absolutely stock and proud of it.
Very nice indeed. How did you get the guy to hang from the side of the car? Velcro or duct tape?

About a mile from my house. A road that connects a few villages that doesn't see much traffic, so I knew I could dick around and not bother anyone.
I'd need moody filters and clouds going backwards too. I went as far as I could with my level of skill and equipment. I'm pleased enough and did it as well as I could hope for

I like the video too, it was creative, with a bit more "Polish" it could be more like Top Gear!!

Looking good! Not my style of music, but the video is looking really good. I know that filming/editing can be a B*TCH!
