Update for that Charles, 2x E61 B5 Tourings and the E61 B5S Touring.... Was going to leave as a surprise as I've been chatting with the owner of the S but seeing as you are making a list....

I'm excited about getting 3 of the 4 UK E61's together including the unicorn S model, I've never seen a photo of that having happened before :)

It better not rain!

I know C and M is a real trek for you chap. If you fancy it sometime (they run the German night every month) you'd be welcome to stay with us if it's a week we haven't got the kids and hence have a spare room, although still about an hour and 45 drive from here. They do have rooms too at C and M - one of the guys from my car club stays there regularly when he's in the area with his work so it's become like a second home for him!

Popped in there tonight, there was a Porsche GB meet happening. Hundreds of the damn things. Thought I would add some class.😀
I know they are very capable sports cars but they all sound like a bag of spammers to me!

I was there too, from about 20:30. Was turned away earlier! Met a mate there who's doing the Hyundai N per-launch drives. Loved the R34 V-Spec that turned up.

I left around 7:30 as there wasn’t much variety of cars to look at (unless you like Porsches). Got a ticket for next week now. Maybe tempting fate but hopefully should be able to make it.
