GREAT PICS EVERYONE -- keep them coming!! ::

The mix of BMs is fantastic; standard, modified, 3ers, 5ers, 6ers and Michael's "M".

And on the rims front, well I'm seriously impressed!! E60s and E61s on 19s, Jarek's E60 on 20s, and the 6ers rolling on 20s or 21s

Sathia and I have literally just sat ourselves down at home, having left before 7am yesterday, and we have 220 pix to sort through

What a meet and what a weekend. It was absolutely wonderful to see so many familiar faces again, and to see so many new faces. We also have 2 new forum members as a result. What more can I say. We loved the early morning start, our mini-meet and convoy, the company, the food, the autobahn, the cruise and how could we possibly forget our night out in Maastricht? Pete and Claudi were missed throughout, though.

Thank you all for coming out and helping to make it a great day. A special thank you to Marcel for sorting the t-shirts and kindly "sponsoring" us the stickers. Special mention goes to Andy for demonstrating once again his great convoy skills... so great, in fact, that 6 cars ended up following him home at the end of the day, literally

Pics to come soon, but here's a sneak peek...

Hey all,

Nice pics - especially the roundup car shots - a small piece of "nostalgia" for us who couldnt be there this time (Pete and myself)...

Looks like you had a great time...

Rgds

SIXcabrio- The group shot is brilliant! I would not have thought it possible the way the cars were laid out.

On a slight side note, I was thinking of starting a "chat thread" for us in the Lounge section, something along the lines of "European Meet & Greet Lounge". Basically somewhere we can chat, post ideas for future meets / mini-meets, keep in touch, and an opportunity for me to get to the 2000 post mark sooner

Good idea??

If so, I'll get it started and post a link to it here for you. Let me know what you think...
