Does anyone know the layout of the car park? Are we likely to get 10 spots in a row? I will do my best to get there early, but might be nearer 1030 than 1000 - I am NOT a morning person.

No I'm not sure yet. I've asked if they can reserve a few prime spaces for us and they said they'd do what they can.

I'm going to head to nearby Morrison's for about 9am and grab a breakfast in the cafe, then aim to head 1/2 mile down the road to BMW for 10am. If anyone wants to join me, we can go onto BMW in convoy ?

Thanks. To all those who attended at Cheltenham today for the launch. My daughter has recently started working there, so your support was greatly appreciated by both her and the management at Cotswold.

There were some lovely classics there but I only managed to snap a couple. Also some pics of the new G29 follow

Yes thanks, considering the muck and spray we drove through on the M5 to get there :x

Looks like a great 'meet', have to say in that colour and from this angle the G29 looks pretty darn good :)

I was thinking the same, That angle looks great, and the rear I think is an improvement on the e89. Still can't get over the fiat spider front end though..
I will have to wait to see it in the metal to make my mind up.
