The 120d feels very at home at the Nurburgring even when putting out a steady 317bhp.
The car feels planted yet is nimble and responsive, low rev torque makes close pursuit and overtaking a formality.
The Schwarzwald League B @ Nurburgring Nordshleife is one lap and no more, one must drive assertively against opponents such as the BMW M3 GTR, the new Mercedes SLS, and the Audi A6 Avant, whose top speeds are all in excess of this BMW's geared maximum of 155mph. Entering the Döttinger Höhe and so beginning the final straight for home, drivers of this BMW will not wish to be seeing any close opposition in their rear view mirror.
The writer recommends this experience, and is reluctant to divulge further details.
