Since there is now be a charge for parking at Newlands Corner I suggested we might want to try a different venue. Thanks to everyone who posted some feedback in that thread:- viewtopic.php?f=14&t=107705

The general view is that we might want to try more than one option, so let's try the Black Swan, Old Lane, Ockham, Surrey. KT11 1NG. Phone: 01932 862364. (Old Lane is a turning off the Southbound A3 just after J10 of the M25).

But this is a general car and bike meet they run on the 2nd Sunday each month (which just happens to coincide with what we did at Newlands Corner) so it won't just be Z4s there. Which may not be a bad thing if we don't have too many!

They open at 08.30 for breakfast, bacon rolls, tea and coffee so any time after that will be fine.

The weather forecast for August was terrible even on the night before so I didn't think it would work, but on the day it turned out dry so my apologies for the "rain check". :oops:

So now the holiday season is over I was wondering if anyone might be up for going in September?

While I realise it is the same date as Jembo's "Full English" meet he is Kent based, so the other end of Surrey, and there may be a few "senior" members (like me) that don't even know what WhatsApp is! :oops:

If you might be interested, have any feedback or other ideas please say - we're basically looking for a new venue where we can have a regular meet!

Depending on how this goes there are other possible options, although some may be on different dates.

TIA.

I'll be there, with a freshly detailed M

Freshly detailed by you?

Gave mine a quick smarten up today. I have realised that now the Zed is back in the garage overnight (and during most days), Harley Wax is a great way to restore shininess with little time and effort. It really doesn't last very long, but a lot longer when the car is garaged. No point in doing the Mini or the Discovery, as they have to brave the elements, so the full Poorboys Nattywax treatment for them.

See you next Sunday!
 
Not by me but I did get the Das 6 Pro out under supervision so can take a very small slice of the credit!
 
Plan to be there marshalling as I've been doing just that with another Brooklands marshal for the last few momtjly meets .
 
Just the 3 of us

Yes, seeing as there were only 3 of us (and forum member TONYMOR as Z4 marshal) it was great to see some other interesting cars - and bikes. :thumbsup:
 
It was good to see the lovely zeds that went
Hopefully more next month I possibly can't make or marshal it as Brooklands Autumn Motorsport day clashes so unlikely for Dave and i to assist.
 
Work life balance conspiring to filll up my schedue at the moment with other things. Enjoyed the meets I made it to, hope to get along again one day soon.. :driving:

Not Z related but cars all the same... Found this near me so will try and pop along if I can...
