Thanks John, and no problem Alan.

Apologies if anyone in my group got left behind, it's almost impossible to see much further than 5 or 6 cars behind!

Many thanks Alan for all your efforts in organising an absolutely fantastic day out today and also to the guys who lead the groups out from the dealership :happyclap: :happyclap: :happyclap:

The staff at the dealership were outstanding and the tours thoroughly enjoyable, topped off by a rather cheeky Jim (james28) asking for use of the turntable for a photo shoot and rather surprisingly they obliged, letting at least 3 from our group onto the turntable for some pics and videos. Nice one Jim, top man :thumbsup:

I shall email Tom at Cotswold tomorrow with a thankyou for all their efforts. Do you have a contact there for parts? I need to get cruise control fitted on this Z3 after the last 2 days of travelling up and down the M6/M1 and then the M5 through roadworks, I really missed it.
Next Z landed ..... Z3 3.0i Sport Roadster

Z4 35iS ..... Gone to a new home

Thanks Tim, you did a great job, especially considering the rain. :thumbsup: We only lost one at the end when Alan suddenly turned up behind us after a set of traffic lights when we were expecting to see a dark blue Zed.

Very welcome :thumbsup:

I think the last 3 groups were quite close come the end, I did see the tail end of the group in front of me in the last 10 mins or so.

This event sounds amazing Alan, I’m sad I hadn’t bought my car sooner! Is there a plan to do something similar next season? If so we would definitely be interested 😁

Yes it was a good day but I'd hope for better weather if we do do it again next year. Undecided yet.

However, theres more pictures of the event here
