W-S-M = Western-Super-Mud, a quaint seaside town, down on the Bristol Channel, where it is rumoured (amongst the clinically insane) by the locals, that on a good day it is actually possible to see water lapping around its pier. 
Personally, I don't believe it. Living in Cheltenham as I do, it could be mistaken for our local beach. Sand I've seen, lots of sand I've seen, lots and lots of sand... you get the idea.
Water? Only from the sky!! (Sorry Ron - only joking!) 
Luckily you don't have to go near it to get to the pub-meet!!

Thanks Ron. That sounds like fun. May not be able to make it in Jan since I'll be sleeping off the previous night at my mate's house in Swindon. Still, you never know, and I'll definately try to make it in February. Excuse my stupidity, but what is the W-S-M?
Must get around to actually joining the club some time - also should sign up to the E30 register since I have 2 at the moment!

Good question. Bath is in a county called "Bath And North East Somerset" these days.

Hello. I notice nobody's posted for over a week (and me for 5 months!) so I thought I'd write something.
I'm in Bath by the way. Almost counts as Somerset.

Would anyone in the South West be interested in a BMW club for say Devon and Cornwall, nothing really formal more a social gathering of like minded people?

This might sound sad, but does anyone know if the E46 M3 toolkit is meant to not include wheel-changing equipment (there being no spare wheel - on-board, at least).
Any ideas re the best cleaner/preserver to use on nappa leather?

The 540i Touring which I changed for a 3 series this month failed its MOT on CATS last year.
Bill �2000+. BMW (GB) paid 1/2 the parts costs due to the relatively low age & mileage.
