Hidden arrival with Gareth Bale | The new BMW X5 at the BMW International Open.
Gareth Bale performs well under pressure but can he navigate transporting the new BMW X5 across Munich to the BMW International Open before the model’s global launch – without anyone catching a glimpse?
The former Wales captain was one of the first outside of an exclusive group of BMW employees to see the newest model in a secret BMW location.
His task was to get the new X5 to BMW International Open venue Golfclub München Eichenried on the outskirts of the city in complete secrecy so it could be stationed on the 17th tee box serving as the hole-in-one car for the golf tournament.
An unforgettable prize and an unforgiving challenge for a world-famous former footballer.
