Err, have I missed something here? yes I know you said it was a tt.net meeting, but you did mention a BMW M3 Coupe (E46) and this is a (the) BMW Forum after all....... so where are IT'S pictures?
(I can feel a lock coming on) |

It's up to you whether you lock it or not, but for your information (which you could have got by PM to save the hassle of my saying this....) the E46 M3 Cab didn't show...belonged to one of your members. There would normally be a 645Ci there as well of course, but I took the RX400 today because a few guys had asked to see it, though I confess I didn't realise it was a condition of posting that I had to show a picture of a BMW. I must have missed something in a plethora of other threads.

Mid-November at present, but that may get pushed out yet. We have a major Christmas bash down in the Midlands in the first week of December and we're in danger of asking people to travel the length and breadth of the country in a short period, so the run might have to move. |

Didn't you read the forum rules? "When posting a meeting for cars other than BMW, one must post a picture of such a BMW vehicle, even if one doesn't turn up to said meeting" Go on, check 'em out.

You tell 'em Pits! Why would you want to post loads of Audi pics on a BMW forum? would Audi enthusiasts want to look at BMWs? I think not! Posh VWs! |

Who cares what cars they are, it's an invite to turn up. At least it's not a BMW meeting - if it were there's be bother as it isn't organised by a BMWCC member so no-one would be insured in case a flag pole fell on yer cranium or a bread-van ran over yer foot..
After all, this is a Bavarian-board forum. Aren't Audi's made in Bavaria? or is that entirely different to Germany?? <expecting to be told I'm wrong at any time..> BTW, when is the Midlands meet and where? If it's over Xmas I might be in that area at the in-laws.. |

Quite. Total Torque is obviously an Audi club so post the pics there, not on a BMW forum. I mean, sixteen pics of Audi A4's & A6's? They're good cars for sure but come on. Edited by AndyS |

OK - Audi's were originally manufactured in Zwickau which is 265Km from Bavaria NSU was founded in 1873 in Riedlingen, on the Danube, and in 1880 moved to Neckarsulm which is 224 Km from Bavaria. In 1969, Auto Union GmbH of Ingolstadt merged with NSU Motorenwerke AG, of Neckarsulm. and the new company bearing the name Audi NSU Auto Union AG, had its head offices in Neckarsulm In 1985 Audi NSU Auto Union AG was renamed simply AUDI AG. To coincide with the change of name, the company's registered headquarters were transferred from Neckarsulm to Ingolstadt. Ingolstadt is only 31Km from Bavaria.
But they still aren't BMW's |

TotalTorque.Net has as many other brands as it does Audi's. It's not a brand specific forum. Anyway, since when did you become a Moderator as well as Brain of Britain? |

I guessing the M3 you mentioned was Tim E's. Together with your 645 that's 2 BMWs, neither of which were there, so where's the interest for a BMW forum? Maybe I should post news of BMW Club meets on the TT forum?
???? WTF are you on about? |

Umm, firstly, no the M3 wasn't Tim's. Assumptions and all that, eh? Secondly, the thread was created prior to the meet. So, the pictures followed the meet as a matter of course. Just because the BMW's didn't turn up, and because some people aren't as blinkered as others, I followed the thread up. Simple really.
Feel free. Nick does, as do others. The message isn't hitting home is it? TT.Net is not brand specific. It's for car enthusiastics in general. So that fell flat too, didn't it? Ultimately, the answer is above - the thread was followed up. BMW's or not. If the majority on here are blinkered enough as to only want to see pictures of BMW's then I'll not post again, but I was under the impression that the Bavarian Boards were frequented by more open minded folk. |

I think the majority of us are open-minded, but at the end of the day this is a (the?) BMW Forum, so you should expect a bit of joshing if you post pictures of an Audi meeting. Please carry on posting, but next time you have a TT meet try to encourage a proper (i.e a BMW) car to turn up.
