There is a dedicated display area for Z Series cars - I just booked and there were 7 places left. But probably only 6 now!

But display bookings need to be made before midday tomorrow so you need to be quick.

Looking forward to seeing how Liam gets on. :thumbsup:
 
It was a great day out. I even managed to get through a full tank of E5, although having the fuel light on before I arrived made the parade laps a but of a squeeky bum moment! And chaos on the M40 before High Wycombe meant it took me over 3 hours to get home, when I got there in under 2 thanks to empty roads and not too many speed cameras. :D

Really well organised so well done BMW Car Club. But the way it was arranged meant Z4s were in a few places - some in the M Cars area, some in Alpina, one representing one area of the BMWCC and most in the Z area that also had Z1s and Z3s, but sadly no Z8. I didn't spot a Z4MR anywhere either. :thumbsdown: But I suppose it did mean non Z owners were morel likely to see one somewhere.

Some photos for Tony anyway, although somehow I didn't get one of Jon's MC. :oops:

Z4s first obviously!

I was there in mine :D 20220807_145019.jpg
The Mrs and I had a fabulous day. Wall to Wall BMWs, BMW racing and blue skies ! What more could you want ?

I saw two ///M Roadsters in the line up below, which was overspill from the adjacent M-Power section :thumbsup: 20220807_112517.jpg
I also saw the Z8 (silver/red leather) but unfortunately didn't get a photo as too many people around it :roll:

A 'few' more of my photos from the day :thumbsup:

It looks like you weren't far from me then - shame I missed you!

But then I missed those MRs in the M overspill area.

I did see the Z8, but it was on a trade stand so for me that didn't count!

I did see you briefly with your car as I arrived and intended to come over to say hello but got sidetracked wiping my car down and then got chatting with Nash3vans. Just didn't get chance after that. Don't think I saw you when we left about 4.30pm ?
Never mind, catch you next time :thumbsup:

I think I was probably chatting to the MC owner I had parked next to then anyway. Didn't meet Nash3vans either. :(

By 4.30 I was registering for parade laps - well it was free!

I'm going to Zedfest so if you are hopefully I'll see you there. :thumbsup:
