    BMW M4 Competition xDrive Gets Hand Controls Installed for Paralyzed Owner

    We came across an awesome post over at Bimmerpost and thought we should share it with you all.

    User M_Adaptive recently took delivery of a Brooklyn Grey BMW M4 Competition xDrive and immediately added some touches to make it unique. He started with the racing sports concept (RSC) front lip, R44 side skirts, a supersprint H pipe, and KW kit. This gave the G82 a much more menacing look but the most fascinating change was the installation of hand controls.

    The legendary owner is unfortunately paralyzed and uses a wheelchair to get around so the folks at Mobility Works installed some very slick hand controls for him. He was the first person in the world to put hand controls in a G8X so the installer and the manufacturer of the hand controls had no first-hand knowledge of how to install it on this vehicle. He stated that the install usually takes a day or two but since this was the first time, it took five.

    “Luckily BMW offers a great mobility program that reimburses people who need to purchase hand controls for their BMW” he stated.

    “I am really proud of where I am now. Five years ago I went from a life-changing injury with people telling me I’d never drive sports cars again. “A van would be more practical” they would say. Now I have two M’s I’ve put a lot of hard work into and I couldn’t be happier.” the owner said.

    Check out the two videos below showing how well the hand controls work and how smoothly he climbs in and out of the M Bimmer.

    Congratulations on your epic new car Mr M_Adaptive and kudos to you for proving people wrong!

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
