Few garages in Perth and also one just after scone on road North

OK Guys just had a call from one of the journalists from TBMW Mag and there are coming up to cover the monthly meet at Perth.

So get your fingers out with the polishing cloths and bring your wares to the show, and let the rest of the world know who we are.

I suspect Allan320 will getting a few calls now

Quality post. Cheers Matt!

Hello all,

Not as regular a poster on here as m'learned colleague Mr Odantzis, but
I'm Matt, the editor of Total BMW. Obviously, this thread started with very
high emotions and has since calmed down – thanks for all the feedback,
we are always keen to hear it. Whether good or bad, it lets us know how
we're doing and where we can improve.

We do not wish to exclude Scottish owners (or indeed owners from the
north of England). Obviously, as we are based in Bath, getting to
Yorkshire and beyond is trickier and more costly than getting to Bristol or
London, but as our readers are based all over the country this is a matter
for us to deal with, not you!

What I will say is that there is some wild conjecture about Total BMW and
costs – while we are a professional publication, we are not mixing it with
the Top Gears and Evos of this world, and we cannot just do every job
with wild abandon; I have to consider the financial implications of each
and every shoot. On the other hand, I know full well that you guys north
of the border have some stunning machinery, and we do want to cover it!
(Before anyone accuses me of southern bias, I'm a northerner as far as
Englishmen are concerned and I lived in Stirling for three years!
)

So, as has been discussed, the best plan of action is for us to come up
and do six or seven feature cars in quick succession (in the space of a
week) and then head off again. As Nick has mentioned, two of my
freelance contributors are due to head north soon to wrap a lot of cars
up, but if we miss you this time, there's plenty more good months of
sunshine ahead for us to come up again and do more features; it's not
like we'll only come up there once and then never return!

Sorry for the length of this post, and sorry if you guys feel like we're
neglecting you, but I assure you we aren't – if you've got events going on
or some great cars gathered, either email me at
matt.robinson@futurenet.co.uk or Nick (his email already provided in this
thread) with all the details and we'll get back to you – I can't promise that
we'll respond immediately (what with bloody meetings here in the offices!
) but we will keep in touch and do our best to co-ordinate a
great trip to Scotland to feature all your cars.

All the best guys, remember – keep reading Total BMW, and don't be
afraid to let us know about any events/meets you've got planned!

Cheers

Matt

P.S. Donnie, I can assure you that your lovely Henna E28 will be going in
the mag – again, we can only get 7 or 8 feature cars into each issue, and
I've got about 30 cars already waiting to be published, but it will
DEFINITELY be in soon! Keep your eyes peeled...
