I have to admit, I still laugh out loud when I even think of 320d touring's "don't try to keep up with me" pic of Andy, with sagely upraised hand and all of us paying rapt attention. It's a classic!

Thanks for the thumbsup on the pictures. Credit for 95% of them goes to Mrs MacSid, though.
I ended up spending most of my time either behind the wheel or making sure we had everyone together... and I'm already thinking ahead to April. We really should push for a full weekend in Munich and BWM Welt plus a factory tour.
