This Mercedes has a BMW heart: Sacrilege or genius?

Since time immemorial, BMW and Mercedes-Benz have been at each other’s throats, vying for supremacy on the racetrack and showrooms. But, what if, just for once, they put their competitive differences aside and brought their engineering know-how to create a car together? Well, left-field German tuners Hartge (think Alpina, Brabus, and the likes) made that a reality in 1988 by shoehorning a BMW M88 straight-six engine into a Mercedes W124 chassis, and named it the F1 (curiously unrelated to the sp

The South African E23 BMW 745i was the BMW M7 most didn't know existed

BMW 1M, M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, and M8. See what number is missing there? BMW has made an M model for just about every Series except for one – the 7 Series. BMW said the ‘M’ adds a track element and there may not be a lot of demand for the 7 Series on the track. But there was an M7 back in the 80s, kind of, in South Africa. It was the first BMW 7 Series that came about in 1977, codenamed E23. The range-topping variant was the 745i which came with the M102 turbocharged 3.2-litre straight-six engi
