Z4-FORUM NATIONAL MEET/2013; BMW CAR ARTICLE

As per title, some details on the Article I have done for BMW CAR.........the deadline had passed for article submission for the September Issue,as this comes out at the Start of August.....so I have been reliably informed that this ARTICLE WILL BE IN THE OCTOBER ISSUE OF BMW CAR, DUE ON SALE AT THE START OF SEPTEMBER (I will confirm exact date when I know it).

I have done a 2000-word article for them and sent on ALOT of photos from myself, Tom Scott and EVERYONE ELSE who sent me e-mails/downloadable links for photobucket, etc., however the mag editor has the Final say at how many and which of these they will use....though I did request that at least 1 of mine gets in it, obviously (but this isn't always the case, haha).



ON ANOTHER NOTE......
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE A COPY OF THE BMW CARCLUB MAGAZINE,STRAIGHT SIX, AS THIS IS A MEMBERS ONLY MAG AND I USUALLY GET EXTRA COPIES DONE FOR THOSE ON THE FORUM WHO ARE NOT CLUB MEMBERS, AT A FACE VALUE OF £5 PER MAGAZINE, INC POSTAGE.

I have yet to confirm this for definite, as the club mag has a new Editor.....but will keep u all posted.
The club mag (STRAIGHT SIX) that my Article will be in should be September Issue, due out in the 1st week in Sept. AGAIN, TO BE CONFIRMED 100% AS CANT GET HOLD OF THE ED!! :headbang:
The Article and accompanying photos have been sent to him though :)
This is a smaller, 1200-word article, and slightly different from the BMW CAR one :thumbsup:

In Both articles I have tried to include at least one(if not 2) of each car at the meet, even the odd non-z4, but as said, I have NO CONTROL over what goes to final print...so don't be too upset if someone has their car in one or both articles and you don't...as some photos were of better quality than others, and this is what they sometimes go on.
I am Unfortunately missing any photos from Ste, despite a couple of requests, lol :poke: ; and he had some good ones of ppls cars/interesting angles, etc.

Anyway, I hope u all enjoy reading them when they are out :D
Cheers.
 
Well done Craig......I'm sure both articles will be top notch as usual.
I'll have a copy of the BMW mag please.....shall I PayPal you the £5?
Also would like a copy of Straight Six if you get any spares.

Cheers

I think you misunderstood me...I was only meaning taking money for copies of the BMW CARCLUB MAG, STRAIGHT SIX, Jim...was just letting any1 buy themselves a copy of BMW CAR on the high stret/at their supermarket/newsagent, etc. if they wanted to go buy one.

I will let you know once I have spoken to Club mag editor regards getting extra copies sent out...ur adrs still same as last year, Jim?
 
Sounds like a lot of hard work Craig - really looking forward to seeing the finished published article. Brilliant!

Would you add me to the list of folk wanting a copy of Straight Six (I take it you mean the copy with your article in it?) - I can Paypal you the money too.

Many thanks yet again and excited to see what's published.

Best wishes,

Paul (and Steph) :driving: :thumbsup:

Thanks...and yes, will add you to the list for those wanting a copy of THE BMW CARCLUB MAGAZINE (STRAIGHT SIX).I usually get around a dozen or so extra copies of the carclub mag set aside for the forum, but have always been dealing with Steve Miller at the club, who unfortunately left and was General Manager and mag Editor (after Jeff Heywood stepped down), but thee seems to be a bit of personnel changes/upheaval going on at the club these days....so theres a new G/M and a separate Mag editor...who is hard to get a hold of, to say the least :headbang: ...hence the reason for me not taking any £ just yet. Will keep you posted Paul/Jim....cheers :D

The larger (2000-word) article will be in BMW CAR, OCT ISSUE, WHICH IS OUT AT START OF SEPTEMBER AS WELL...Which you can buy in the Shops.
Both articles are similar yet different, if that makes sense (or at least I tried to make it so) :D
 
Can I get a copy of the mag please?

Will take a note of all of the above names and once I actually get a reply/ get to speak to the new club mag Editor(last spoke to hime pre-meet), I will take address details and payment for said copy of "Straight six", the car-club magazine...once I have the fact that it will again be in the Sept. issue cheers :thumbsup:

As for BMW CAR magazine, lookout for it on the shelves in your local Newsagent/Supermarket, etc. ....this will be October issue of BMW CAR, and comes out at start of September also, cheers :D
 
A copy of Straight Six mag please if it's not too late and looking forward to read both of your articles.

Well done Craig. :thumbsup:
