Birthday Road Trip and Mini Car Meet - Cumbria and Northumberland

Post by tomscott » Mon May 31, 2021 4:36 pm



Last weekend was my 33rd Birthday and with Covid restrictions I haven't seen many of my car mates! We met at The Village Bakery in Melmerby, Cumbria which sits at the bottom of the famous Hartside Pass.

Some fabulous cars including: 991.2 Carrera GTS Convertible, 981 Boxster S, 996 Carrera 4S convertible and the Z4M Roadster. We had food and drinks then a look around the cars!

Always fabulous to see good car mates all of them ex Z4-forumers met many years ago that I’m sure a few will remember the faces! Was nice to see Paul too as first time I’ve seen him since I bought his Z4MR and an opportunity to take some pics with his new motor too!

We said our goodbyes and we set off to Northumbria.

Destination was Kielder Resevoir, a large man-made reservoir in Northumberland in North East England. We took our two cockapoos Luna and Max, one in the Z4M and one in the 4S. We walked 8 miles around the reservoir and took advantage of the scenery with some car shots!

I usually make these little videos so the images and vids don’t waste away on my hard drive!

Not your usual but lots of nice pics in the fabulous scenery!

Enjoy!

Nice video Tom. I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but the Z4MR is just so much better looking than any of those Porkers. :D :thumbsup:
