Ultimate Bmw Show !!!

Recommended Posts

Quality weekend out, really enjoyed it and as said before it was great to put names to faces - really impressed with all the rides out there today I thought the stand looked awesome - I cant wait to see dicky's professional photography (its got to be better than dave d's camera work :cheers: )!

Camping was awesome apart from the cold weather at night - I'm just waiting to see who's first to start a shoe detailing thread after sinking into the mud a few times. Cheers to dicky & the rest of the camping crew for providing a lot of the gear, those disposable bbqs turned out quite well actually..

I think I'm just about recovered from the whiplash I got last night on the dodgems after you'd all had a few - was a good laugh but I wasn't really feeling those pole dancers in the bar afterwards!

Anyway looks like we got across the message about the zone, check out how many views this thread has had so far.

Everything else has been said I think, but all in all an awesome weekend - and roll on the euro trip next year!

Well done to all of you! Some great pics there!

I thought the day was brilliant, although i only got to half relax near the end (so i could do a couple of 13.9 runs in my standard E36 M3!! Woop woop!) And i burnt the clutch out on my mates touring! lol (it was going anyway!).

Nice seeing you all as always and a couple of new faces 2!

Im always up for a Nurburgring trip some time soon? I know plenty of my non E46 boys will be to!

No worries...a bit annoyed at myself should of taken more :cheers:

Look at marty in the last pic...i bet he is dreaming about his next mods!

LOL dreaming like the rest of us!!!

Its good to see so many tidy cars, has really given me some inspiration to crack and

so a little more, think I will steal Pete's (soopa) idea of the slitter add on, then some skirts,

tints and led rears.

That would do me just fine for now.

A big thanks to everyone who turned up and had there car on show.

We had a good turn out, 21 cars at one point, on the stand. And it was nice to finally meet some of you lot. Perfect weather too.

I've got a good amount of pics that i'll sort out and upload tonight. As well as a vid of the stupidly loud jet car. My ears were ringing 20 minutes later.

Hope everyone got home ok. We saw, what we thought, was a E30 (black with black wheels) on its roof just heading towards the M1. People were trapped inside. saw 3 wheels badly buckled and dented. It looked like it lost control on a roundabout and hit an other car. I do hope it was an accident, and he wasnt driving like a maniac on the roads. That is what the show was for!!

Anyway, thanks again for everyones support. We had at least 10 members sign up from 6pm last night. I hope to get a bunch more today.

Oh, i've also created a subforum for photos and comments on past events. Please dont add anything to the original posts, it'll make it hard to find pics etc in the future.

Yea that was on the A509 just before you get onto the M1, It was outside a 4X4 Dealership, I think i missed that accident by less than a minute, called dicky to let you guys know, never realised it was a BMW though, but it totally flat on its roof right upto the doors!!! ie where you rest your elbow if your window is down, not sure anyone could survive that as that line is normally below the headrests!!!!

Did you leave long after me sam??

Looked pretty bad, was gonna get out and help but there were already loads of people swarming about, lets just hope they were ok (which I doubt) I dare say the came down the same hill as me, and picked up speed, (i now a lot of people were doing it) then slammed into a car at the roundabout at the bottom then flipped into the opposite side of the two lanes.....

:cheers:

By the time i left the police had closed the A509, ended up going to Bedford then picking the M1 up off the A6.

Thanks Steve for warning fellow zoner,Matt passed the message onto me.

Lets hope it was just an accident and not some tw*t driving like a idiot! :cheers:

Stevie, properly left 10 minutes after you. 2 firetrucks, police and ambulance all on sense. We saw a plain vectra with blues going after we past. Then way further on, i was overtaking a slow car and a vecta came the other way pretty quick!

it looked like a E30 M3, but i was trying to avoid all the idiots who just stopped on the road to look. Reckon it was a big sprint down the hill towards santa pod and he just lost it. Feel sorry for the other car involved. Properly totally innocent. I did see a fireman on his knees looking through the window talking. So I hope they people in the car were alive.

What worried me was the smallish shoes by the side of the car Sam!

There were green trainers and other luggage littered around the car :-(

If it was someone from the event, it'll crop up on an other forum. I'll look on the ones im members of.
