Anyone been to one of these before? Is it worth the trip?

[Andy]

It's an early morning and I have a big Saturday night in the opposite direction, but that does look really good.

Have a feeling there will be a good turn out to this

[Adam D]

I'm up for this, added my name to the list

[Woots]

Might very well be up for this!
Ill be driving south to portsmouth so might be a nice stop midway!
My car will be full of kit but should be no bother
I want to see the Z8!!

[srhutch]

If I'm back driving by then looks good if I can get a pass from the wife

[Adam D]

Any update on whose going I'm convoying from Thurrock Services with the Essex PH contingent

[PawnSacrifice]

Man that's organised... I'm just trying to sort mates out to get their act together! Should be a good day for the road trip.

Thankfully though I'm just a little way down the road! What time are you guys getting there?

Anyone else?

[uberscott]

Yep, I'm going! All new territory for me, can't wait!

[Spud]

Too far south for me

[PawnSacrifice]

Didn't make it, wouldn't stop raining... anyone get there? What'd I miss?

[flimper]

I went and was a good morning despite the torrential rain. Met a guy with a Z4MC (only Z4M I saw) and tried to recruit him to the forum. Very nice car with two tone black&red interior....

[Adam D]

Well that was a wet one!

I was there between 9:20 and 11:30 ish and can just about be seen lurking behind the Scooby and Chimaera from the Essex PH contingent

I saw quite a few Z4's including a new shape one) and there was another M coupe with carbon spoiler parked near the Porsche Panamera at the far end of the other car park Food wasnt bad and also picked up a rather fine carbonesque M umbrella with spring loaded action

Since it was raining so bad it made it hard to locate other Z4 owners, people didnt tend to hang about outside near their cars for long

[JRZed]

That was me parked next to the Porsche. I saw one or two other Z4M's but didn't get a chance to say hi to their drivers. It was a very wet day, but worth it to see some of the BMW's on display.
GJ57 - that looks like one that was for sale recently at Bramley (a few months back), it has the option side skirts too, looks good.
