Car Throttle takes us on a thrilling journey to the BMW UK staff car park where they get their hands on the legendary BMW M1, the very first M car ever created. This beast is a true icon in the automotive world, boasting a powerful BMW M88 engine with 270 horsepower that roars like a lion. The host is in awe of the M1's speed, unique design, and lightweight fiberglass body that sets it apart from the crowd. From its retro wheels to the distinctive louvers on the rear window, every detail of the M1 exudes pure automotive excellence.

Despite the challenges of the fixed seats and quirky interior, the host dives into the driving experience of the M1, navigating its offset pedals and dog-leg gearbox with enthusiasm. As they hit the open road, the M1's performance shines through, delivering an exhilarating ride that leaves a lasting impression. The car's rich racing history, including the Pro Car Championship supporting Formula 1 races, adds another layer of excitement to the experience.

With its chassis designed by the renowned firm Delara and body by Ital Design, the BMW M1 is a true masterpiece of engineering and design. The host revels in the M1's legacy as the Godfather of every M car that followed, appreciating its incredible sound and engaging driving experience. Despite its age, the M1 proves to be a timeless classic that continues to captivate and inspire all those who have the privilege of getting behind the wheel.
