At that speed the Pagoda is at 4500rpm
And VERY noisy.


Noise cancelling earphones really help though

That's 90mph. My BMW 430D does exactly the same. 90mph at 2000 RPM in top gear. My previous 2007 BMW 530 D did it too. Admittedly not a 9 speed gearbox.

No interest in football personally but what a fantastic moment to share with your dad and your son - creating memories
The simple things you see are all complicated
I look pretty young but I'm just backdated yeah

It what it’s all about for me

Dad started taking me from the age of 6 back in the 70s - we had a season ticket and used to go to many away games

The three of us (Harry, Dad and I) have been going together for four seasons now

Nice to repay Dad with a season ticket for all the years he took me
