    Gents I hope to be there how do you book (not a member of the BMW owners club):hmmmm:


    Just give them a call Lloyd they're a friendly bunch and won't try to convince you to join either:top:

  • Mine too - exhibitor's pass number 2 - anyone else going on the Aston Martin test track too during the day? Suggest you book the last run of the day as it's not too crowded - my son achieved 145mph last year!

    Hi Angus,


    What's an exhibitor's pass number 2? Are you a CC member as I am told display passes are only available to members. It's not so good when it's fragmented.:dontknow:

    Bring her with you, rear leg room shouldn't be a problem:laugh:


    Hope you can make it.

  • Yes, I am a BMW Car Club member. You can exhibit along with your nearest regional branch or there is an area designated for the E31 - which is what I have opted for. They give you an exhibitor's pass-card to hang from your rear-view mirror. Mine is number 2 so I guess there was only one other E31 who booked to exhibit before me.

  • I'm not a BMW club member - so would I be left languishing in the car park?
    Can you please remind me of what I'd need to pay to get in? (not fussed about test track).
    Did go once before, but my experience was mainly limited to sales girls trying to sell me blue running lights and being told what a lumbering dinosaur my car was....I didn't last all day!
    Mr Grumpy ;)

  • Must admit, you had the same experience as me, but good to meet a couple of the other guys last time. The food is dire, as are the majority of the 'trade' stands, unless youre after some stick on 'carbon fibre'!
    However if you give the 01225 number a call or go on the BMW Car Club site you'll see whats required. I would think you'll have no problem getting on an E31 pitch , but please dont park near me as I can't stand seeing better motors!

    And me:winkwink: but that's not the reason I go. It's a 300 mile 5hr round trip, usually on a glorious day, meeting up with some great guys, talking bollocks (and Sonos) for a few hours, having a couple of ice creams then heading home for another year. It's a lads thing:cool:
