Nice looking M140.

BMW has really departed from their design language.

These are some of the most beautiful photos I’ve ever seen on here! Looks like an amazing trip. I’m jealous and wish I could teleport my F87 there and join. Thanks for sharing these!

Lovely place with amazing cars. I try to go there every New Year's Eve in my X5. Few snaps from my trip - looks quite different.

A 2wd car with the right tyres can cope just fine 😁

a vehicle with 4wd is still better suited for such winter conditions. It is difficult to drive up my driveway in winter. Even with momentum, it's hard to drive up. With 4wd I can stop and drive on.

but that's another story

Yes, really 4wd is better. I was just having a bit of fun 😊 Although, as the thread I posted shows, the common misconception that rear wheel drive BMWs are hopeless in snow is quite unfounded 😂
