A gentle potter on the Saturday.

Based in and around Banff and Aberdeenshire in north east Scotland, this is a relaxed day of steady pottering with the emphasis on enjoying the scenery, having longer breaks and a less focused and frenetic drive compared to some of the more 'hooning' weekends.

The excuse for this outing is to take in the lesser known castles in this largely bypassed part of Scotland.



Starting around 10:00 am and planning to finish 16:00 ish and around 125 miles of driving including photo / tea stops and a lunch halt.

Likely start position around Aberdeen or Aviemore to be advised.

Open to all, the more the merrier, subject to the then COVID regulations.

It may have to be reduced to 8 cars if Scottish Level 2 is in force or cancelled if Level 3 or higher is in force.

Please do not book accomodation until we suggest you do, and then we suggest you have a COVID related cancellation policy with your bookings.

Expressions of interest can be made via this post or via pm to PBondar on this forum or PM via Z4 Owners Scotland FB pages or to [email protected]

For data protection reasons, as this is an open forum and any information can be accessed by anyone, your details wil be stored elsewhere in a secure server.

Information on generalised run etiquette is here https://www.dropbox.com/s/85owxfxv1sdno ... e.pdf?dl=0

You will need to be intending to use a Zed of any era/type to attend.

This run is open to all zed owners, most communications will be via this Forum and then WhatsApp closer to the time. Other content can be found on the Scottish Z4 Owners Facebook pages.

Hi Richie I’m staying Friday and Saturday and Argyll Andy I believe is planning to do the same..not just broken the news to his GF yet..

Mo and I are staying here https://www.saplinbrae.co.uk/stay/stylish-rooms which is a little distance away from the start but looks fab and positions us for something away from the usual Premier Inn / Holiday Inn Express which whilst I use extensively I’m getting a bit jaded with hence a treat.

I think Andy is planning to stay there too..no doubt he will update us once the post coital glow of his new car has subdued.. :rofl:
