I am unfortunately not going to be able to make this as the BMWcc Board meeting is on the same day and I need to go to that. I am disappointed as I was looking forward to something different. Shorty has kindly agreed to take the lead so he will be bossman!!! Clap

Ah well you see Shorty the average Jag driver is an automatic kinda guy, he wants to waft along the road to the golfist pitch with his golf bats in the boot and not be bothered about changing gear.

The average Beamer driver (most of the folk on here) have a manual so he can drive erm um shall we say more enthusiastically than your average Jag driver off to play with his bats.

Me, I've been driving autos for 14 years and love them. My dad can't wait to come and have a nosey round and see some other BMs in the flesh. We're both looking forward to it, cheers for taking the regins on this one.

FINAL PLANS FOR VISIT :-

Meet at "Showcase Cinema " (post code :- G69 7TZ) at 9.20 a.m to leave "Sharp" at 9.40a.m to arrive for around 9.55 - 10.00a.m
I have printed maps for those with no sat nav.
I took a "Recie" run today & it should take no more than 10-15 mins from Showcase to the workshop.
If you cant meet at showcase , as it might not suit some, please let me know via P.M on here or post here & we can meet you at the venue.
