BTW, your ride seems pretty bumpy, is that the camera or does your 3-series really bob about that much?

Yeah they can occasionally create a false dip but it doesn't usually do too badly.
There's another, brilliant and smooth road I want to film on with some spirited driving but the weather and conditions haven't been permitting for a long time!

Ha, the 3er rides well for a sports saloon, but honestly the roads round here are fooked. Take me over in a Phantom and it'd still be shaky footage!
Also, I'm not known for my steady camera holding as you can ascertain from the comments on my post popular YouTube video here!

Maybe I should invest in a GoPro with a mount...
