My new business venture - Cotswold Strasse

[Sam]

Hey guys, it’s been a while! E46zone isn’t quite the hive of chaos it once was, but there’s still a ridiculous amount of knowledge on the site, so it keeps ticking along. Thank you to everyone who’s supported it over the years — you’re the reason it ever became a thing.

 

The whole journey started because I loved my E46 323Ci, but every forum back then was US-based. So I thought, “why not start one myself?” And somehow… here we are, many years later.

 

Fast-forward to today: I’m still as car-obsessed as ever. After being made redundant recently, I decided it was time to take a risk and dive properly into the motor world.

 

I’m lucky enough to live in the Cotswolds, and the car scene here is exploding — Caffeine & Machine, Clarkson’s Farm, Tom Hartley Jnr’s new showroom… it’s becoming a proper petrolhead destination. So I took the plunge. Rented a unit. Bought a few cars, of course I had to include an E46, an Alpina B3s, no less! Built a website, and started Cotswold Strasse — buying and selling cars, organising drives, hosting small events, and generally getting involved in anything with wheels.

 

I’d love to invite you along for the ride — whether you’re local or halfway around the world. If you decide to follow the journey, thank you in advance — here’s to whatever comes next.

 

Thanks for reading, Sam.
