So silent you can hear the sound of the future… The future we might not be too enthusiastic about, but we are well aware it’s approaching. And approaching fast – certainly in the case of the i8. What made us reach for that car with our fleet in mind? Firstly, its reference level handling and perfect driving position, both typical of BMW: together, these contribute to pure Freude am fahren. And on the street… show me a single person to pass it by with indifference. Then, in theory as least, it has all things it takes to be a supercar. What about practice? You’re welcome, find out your yourself!
