Didn't BMW make a prototype of a car powered by the K1100 engine?

James May did a program about small cars, and it had one of the BMW z13s driving around.

Found it

A good series.

Now that Brexit came about BBC is acting like fools and blocking shows if you're outside the UK. Oh well. No loss for me.

Because leaving the EU will not become final until the end of the year and everything is running along as normal at the present. So that will NOT be the reason.

The BBC is having a crisis of identity and they are allegedly stuck for cash (Possibly untrue) but they are cutting a lot of facilities which used to be available everywhere which may be one reason you cannot get it. Staff cuts, mostly the lower paid, which is ironic seeing that those with stratospheric salaries are safe, secure and well.

I can get it so there is no real reason why you cannot get it. One thing the BBC won't do is cut off access from or to European countries as they were strongly against leaving.

Normal???? Laughing I lost count how many companies, particularly in the financial sector, are bailing out of London and the rest of the UK, or how many Brits are frantically trying to obtain an EU passport in any other country. I moved to Massachusetts in December.

I get the same response as Jim, even when I use a UK hosted VPN.
