Done Robbie even though I purchased it along time before you became an importer for these excellent quality products. Does this mean that when I purchase the next mod over the weekend from you that I get a bigger discount if I advertise it also

I'll put my car in if they need to make up the numbers, not sure it's what is required though.

Niall - i think you should try and get your car on display as it deserves that sort of exposure and would definetely generate some interest for the club.

Discount depends on the volume of your purchases

I agree and also think that its important that we try to avoid a
"them" and "us" attitude in club activities but that has to be a two
way street. Is it a case of send the info to Larry and he can
decide on what constitutes the best representation of the
BMW CAR Club and everybody waits for his
decision? sounds a bit undemocratic to me particularly if the
suggesstion is that the forum be used as a hunting ground for
suitable models that may or may not be acceptable!

I thought the club line was "If it has a BMW badge, it's owner is welcome to join in the events with it, regardless of model or age"!

I say that in relation to the club and forum, NOT Terenure.

And you'd be right Fey. The club is never exclusive or snobbish. I guess this is a bit different as it IS a classic car show.
I always say the more the merrier regardless of age,condition,power or whatever.

My car is no showcar but I'd be happy to have it on the stand and hand out leaflets.

I don't think its the case Aubergine.  I'm not sure if the space has been booked in the name of (or ata cost to) the club.  Either way, I don't think he is dictating anything, but the guy has taken the time to organize something that others have talked about, so I'd say it does give him a leadership role in the situation.

What is displayed is more of a case of "horses for courses", in the same way that you might wonder if its appropriate to show a std '02 at a show like Bimmerfest.
Now: BMW 523i SE '00, 318i SE - e91 '07, 325i Coupe '93.

Prev:
e46 328i SE Touring, 330Ci, 318Ci.
e39 523i SE.
e36 325i Coupe *2, 323i SE, 316iSE.
e30 325iSE 2dr, 320i Conv, 320i 2dr, 316i.

When I joined this was what I read about the club form the BMWCC (GB) website:

Congratulations!! you have found the one and only independent manufacturer-recognised Club for those interested in BMW cars in the UK. We are a Club run by and for our members, and aim to provide something for everyone interested in the marque - whatever the age of the car or the member.

I miss me beemer!

Hi all Gerard here Can you PM me if you are going and I will pass on your name to Larry. The show is a classic car show, but I agree even a new car can be a classic.

But the BMW car club is not the organisor of the show it is the Jaguar car club that is the organisor and we should respect the theme they have put a lot of work into. But to me if we manage to have a 3 series '02, E21, E30, E36, E46, E90 display that would be a brilliant display of a classic evolution. Same applies with Zs 5s 7s 6s 8s etc. So when it comes to setting up the site on the day, we should make the effort to park the cars in historic sequences to get the public interested in how a classic evolves

My apologies for making these suggestions when I will not be there to help as I a competing in a Hillclimb at Dungarvan (I know I'm not in a BMW but a lowly Fiat Ritmo)

Get does PMs to me so I can keep Larry informed.

Hi guys,

I'm new to the forum (and the club), I am a mate of M3Dave, I would be happy to bring my E90 320 if everyone is happy that modern cars should attend. If so are you meeting somewhere first, or just going straight to the show, if so what time.

Not good Mark....you'll have to start parking in corners of car parks far far away from other people.Thats what I do! The 2 mile walk to the door of the shop is good for me anyway

Ouch - welcome to the forum though Mark. It could be a good excuse to get the Hartge bumpers & kit for the car though. http://www.bmwcarclubforum.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=19389&a mp;PN=1&TPN=1&get=last#170596
