I won't be attending as #049 is not due back from the bodyshop until next week - typical E46 rust on both rear arches and a full frontal respray to tackle 5-6 years of stone chips - but here's hoping that you have good weather and a good spot to display :D

God willing see you there Sunday. I am told the Club has put in a lot of effort to make it "different" this year. I hope that is the case, one wonders why they did not properly promote it earlier and say what had changed?

Nevermind 20 Alpina is not too shabby a number, how we have been allocated a decent parking place and not on grass?

F22 M235i - everyday driver
E 39 523i sold May 2023
E92 325i - written off by X5 I was not driving!
E92 335D Twin Turbo - sold to Sytner Alpina
E 60 - 525D new - sold to Cooper BMW
E 60 - 530D new - sold at auction
E 39 - 520i new - sold at auction
