Any meets in the Bristol area?

Post by Aggie » Mon Nov 02, 2015 10:31 pm

Hi All

Is anyone aware of any weekly/monthly meets that take place in the Bristol area? Not specifically Alpina but BMW as well. The Royal Navy has accommodated me in the middle of nowhere I get very bored at night. Would be good to meet up for a chat and a beer. :(

There's a meet on Queens Square once a month on the last Sunday of the month. (I think)!

Haven't been for many many years but a good event for older BMWs especially.

I'd check the arrangements haven't can get and you do have to get there early but worth it from the recent pictures I've seen.

I'm in Weston-super-Mare by the way.

I have a piece of land which COULD be used for meets. Not ideal as it's agricultural, not tarmac.

If there was enough interest in a South West meet I could make it happen. As long as you don't mind parking on grass! I'm thinking barbecue!

The B5 would make a good tractor! 👌

There's a warehouse but it's rented out. Probably room for 80 cars in there. On the outside there are concrete areas but again rented out to a tenant and too small.

If the warehouse was empty it'd be pukka.

Weston's not far away. It would be good if something could be organised. I would have a go myself but I've only lived in the area for a few weeks. Found work and the local up to now. :)

You got BMs on the lawn taking place in Western on July 10th which is quite a big car show, just turn up no need for booking if you fancy it?
