Bimmerfest 2016 Venlo, Netherlands
Hi guys,
As many of you may know and may of seen, a few of us drove over to the Netherlands for Bimmerfest15 in June. It was a great weekend and had an absolute blast. We are planning on going again in June of next year but this time making it into a Euro trip and hopefully get some more cars along with us. The plan is to take 7-10 days out and drive through Europe starting off with bimmerfest then heading down through Germany, Austria, Italy and finishing off in Monaco driving some of the greatest roads in the world. Just wanting to see who would be interested in this trip? Or even just tagging along for the weekend for bimmerfest. The route hasn't been decided so certainly open to suggestions and comments. Cheers, Mike |

Sounds like it would be great! I'm not in 100% but penciling my name in here.

Yep interested, not sure if I can commit the full 7-10 days trip. But Bimmerfest and tour at BMW Welt in Munich is a YES!

Good to see us getting some interested members.
No official date has been released for 2016 bimmerfest. Date to come the following months. Once we have a rough number of people willing to do the trip I will start looking into hotels etc. The plan at the moment is: Meet up in south of England, euro train and drive over to Venlo for bimmerfest. Drive to the Nurburgring, organise the ring taxi for everyone and if people want, drive the track in their own cars. After that we shall drive down through the black Forrest to Munich. Visit BMW Welt and do factory tours etc. Drive to Salzburg/ Innsbruck driving the zilleral high alpine road. Drive to Verona, driving the jaufenpass/ stelviopass. Drive to Genoa And finally drive to Monaco, driving the route de genteelly/ route napoleon. Finishing in Monaco with some sort of after party. As I said before the route handy been finalised yet so if people have places they would like to visit or routes they would like drive, I'm certainly up for suggestions! Mike |

Once we have final number we will certainly be sorting out group discounts etc. already in contact with BMW Welt to see what they can do for us. And will try organise grope discount on the ring taxi for Nurburgring. Just hope we can get a good group of us together! |

I agree, this year only four of us made the journey over to Holland. Next year I had hoped to get a group of 8-10 cars. Makes getting discounts for hotels etc a little easier!

Oh wow someones being spending some time on this! Thanks for your input. Like I said the route is up to everyone to agree on and is only in the early stages of planning. I am currently away working and have been since June. I return back to the U.K in 10 days and will start drawing out the routes etc for people to decide. Obvs after I have had a blast around in my M4 which has been locked away for far too long I will also be looking into Tshirts etc for people if they would be intrested as the plan is exactly what you say "a mini gumball" Mike |
