West Kent (near Surrey/Sussex borders)
I suggested a meet before Xmas. Lots were interested. FlowerFred arranged it. And no Brits turned up. Just an Aussie, a Dutch guy, and a couple of Yanks.
Would be nice to have a good lineup of E60s.

Sorry I couldn't make it to the meet in Jan. I found myself over in Canada at the time and couldn't get back in time.
I'm sure we'll all meet up sometime soon. FYI, I'm driving over to Frankfurt to see Iceman and Kigerka on Saturday - should be fun: never met Iceman before... I'm going to retrofit the M5 -/+ paddles onto Kigerka's SMG wheel. Sort of a guinea pig test before making that particular mod available commercially. Hope it'll be good weather for some pics.
All the Best

Hi Baron
The website you posted is run by my friend John Thorne who is also known as Thorney Motorsport.? Have a look at his extreme X5 site: www.ultimatex5.com.? He's marketing my SMG wheel conversion...

To jump in a little late on the "Essex" angle... was born in Rochford, lived in Hockley, did A Levels in Southend :-) Ahhhh... the wasted hours "down the arcades"!
Is TOTS still there?

Before that I lived in Sth Fambridge (Hockley basically).
Talk Of The South still exists as TOTS 2000.

Bumped into fellow E60'r BangleBox_530d today at DMS - very nice to meet you
As an aside, how comes now of you UK 545i's have stepped up to the Santa Pod challenge - do you not visit the "Meet and Greet" forum?
