Good day out. Would have liked a bit more time to look at other people's cars. Lots of lovely metal! I wanted a go in the Z1 with the doors down and the E46 M3, maybe next time... Great to see some, by now, familiar faces and to put new faces on old profile names. Thanks for the advice re. parts ballina123. |

Killian did you already checked polish lads bmw club page? http://www.bkd-fani.pl/photogallery.php check the dates of gallery entries- monthly meetings!!! Thats what NI people said - more socializing. This is the key. Everything else follows naturally. My strong opinion is- definatedly we need central body to gather information, knowledge, people, influence etc. etc. Right now small groups are doing something and nobody else knows and these groups cant get bigger. If small criminals want to get bigger and get more power - what they do? They will organize and organised crime can take down the goverments if they want. If we really want to make it big and sucessful... we have to have 1 strong organisation. |

Hello there. Just wanted to say thanks, we had a great day, sorry we didnt get a chance to see round everyones cars (we were clearly too busy talking!). We landed home at 10pm, just a little over three hours brought us back up the road. Hope to see you all again in the future. Kind regards, Colin and Sarah.

Same here- despite 120 km/h traffic jam in M7 day was great! BKD- have some teamleader? Maybe have some contact e-mail. For me your webpage is pretty hard to understand Im in dublin and very often I need extra adrenaline shot :) Like to see meetings more often- you guys have monthly meets around Dublin????!?!

Does anyone know exactly how many cars were there? It was a great day out and thanks to everyone who came. It gave myself, Ger & Brendan a number of great ideas in terms of direction and we will obviously follow up on them as discussed. |

Just would like it to run smoothly first, too much to do not enough money. Front brakes, suspected rear bushes, change out coilpack. And I'm dreading having to drive them home with the car the way it is :(
If anyone is willing me donate some elbow grease to getting it driving well, you will be forever in my gratitude. Edited by irelandoffline |

Main event was superb M collection! M1 M3 M5 M6 and M7 prototype. Then 4 German "M3 Cup" Teams performed drifting competition in the carpark and 1 rally stage around Portlaoise... Ehhhh... you missed all fun!!!! Seriously... There are many small groups out there and plans how to put these groups interests together. to gain more respect and benefits from society and companies. All of these groups have same interest - BMW. We had at least 4- 5 different groups and of course some of them felt that its a plan to melt or overtake them. Anyway... with respect to everybody no dramatic plans made. Only big point was... we are all out there with same interest and we have to socialize more. |
