Hi mate,

Hope all's well & you got the 5 finished. Can't get to the meet I'm away but hope you have a good one.

As an aside perhaps we could have a mini meet? Chappers 71 is in Kent, you're Essex & I often get to East London. Sure we could get a few more as well? worth a thought?

Can do a Saturday as well, I'll check and get back to you as there's a couple of weekends I'm not available in April & May.

Be good if there's more than 3 of us

Any car club friendly cafe's your way where there may be something going on, we could have our own little meet up then go look at some others? I'll look at dates later.
Cheers

I’m hoping too mate, sorry work has been mental the last month or so. I’ll have to make sure I’m not going to be working that weekend.

Weather is looking promising for Sunday, looks like it will be sunny , makes a change from last year that was rather dull and a bit wet. Looking forward to this . I believe alpina will be a special feature this year.

A note for those who haven’t been before, the police keep a keen watch on people leaving , the roads surrounding are great roads but they have a 40mph limit - so be careful!

I thought the event was good , helped by the nice weather

Favourites for me were the alpina, some nice examples there and a smattering of e39 and e38s (my favourite)

A nice v12 e38 would work for me nicely!
Amazing that when the e38 was out, it seemed like a huge car but now it’s essentially the same size as our g30s

I just love how bmw used to do things , the e46/39/38 generation is in my opinion , bmw at their best

A couple of new M5s there but they did nothing for me
A solotory suv was all I saw there , everything else as far as could tell was a proper car!

It seems a good chunk of cars we’re the max power m3 a so to speak, not my thing personally but obviously popular
