Get out the lollybags and prepare a pass-the-parcel: ‘M’ celebrates its 40th birthday this month!
But no, we don't mean the 13th letter of the alphabet (that’s probably a lot older), but the division that make BMWs go fast.
And with a stellar lineage of road cars weaned from repetitive wins on the race track, what better time to get the big red book out and tell M’s life story…
Of which you can begin with a single slick of that 'next' button. Enjoy.

If M was a soup, BMW has ladled every last drop into this, apparently. Assembled ladies and gentlemen, meet the all-new BMW M6.
It has been given, says BMW, a "generous dose of M feeling", by which of course, it means a cosmically powerful engine and lots of oversteer.
It's the second M car to get the very highly pumped 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine - first seen on the rather smashing new M5 - and therefore boasts 412kW and 680Nm of torque. That's more power than the Jaguar XKR-S. Power, naturally, goes to the rear wheels via a seven-speed M double clutch gearbox with launch control.
