ALPINA at Frankfurt motorshow

Post by neil » Sun Aug 26, 2007 9:07 am

I was just adding a Frankfurt reference to the main page of the site and what did I find:

Which appears at the top of the main IAA page -> Here

For those of you tempted to attend it's on 13th-23rd September...

Andy and I will be there for the press days 11th-12th in case you can't make it.

Neil,
I will be there on 15/9. By the way do you know the address of the show as I shall pick my friend up from the airport who is coming from Hong Kong. I didn't find that on IAA web site. Thanks.
(If you stay here long enough, I think I meet you there. After the show I'll go to the ring again and then to Berlin on 16/9 so another 2K drive)

Hi James

We're flying over on the 11th and back on the 12th - so won't be around on the 15th.

Careful on the ring ;)

Sounds like you've got a good trip planned.

Neil,

Any idea is Chris will be there. I have some personal questions would like to ask him.

Of course I will be careful as a friend of mine will ride with me on the ring and I don't want him get scare and he still needs to present himself in a conference in Berlin from 17-20/9/07. So don't worry and thanks.

Beside I still love my car and I don't want to crash it yet and I just love the atmosphere there and enjoy sighting of those exortic cars around.

That's a relief !

Regards Kris being there on the 15th - I'm not sure if he will be, he'll definitely be there on the press days 11th and 12th but I'm not sure how long after that he is stopping.

James

the address for the IAA is in the Frankfurt Messe (exhibition centre) unlike say Dusseldorf or Geneva - it's not linked to the airport -but is instead nearer the centre...

I think the address is:
Messe Frankfurt
Ludwig-Erhard-Anlage 1
60327
2011 BMW 520d M Sport Saloon
2008 BMW 120i M Sport 5 Door

Previous ALPINAs
1984 E28 B9 3.5
1989 E32 B11 3.5
2000 E39 B10 V8 Touring
2005 E85 Roadster S #344
