Added, but it's a small list !

[Diamondgeezer]

[Has csl]

I'm down. So far down actually, that I can't even remember what reserve number I am. Been to a few at their old HQ in Bracknell, never had to put a name down then. Always turned up. Anyone up for meeting up and just turning up. Maybe they'll let us in when 10 csl's turn up:supz:

[mattCSLnut]

im on the waiting list

Wow ! that list filled up quickly :banghead:

I might bring the 635csi if I get a spot

I'd love to see that in metal Jon :smokin:

[Chris-CSL]

Could be shit and giggles to meet up and drive to the entrance as said above they got to let us in :)

Cool - let me check the route mate

[mattCSLnut]

Cool - let me check the route mate
No worries mate ;)
If J23 M25 is a bit out of the way for you I'm happy to meet up somewhere scenic in the Big Smoke earlier doors for a photo op :smokin: before heading West across LDN

[Jon8710]

Up to 205....prob chance it anyway. Jon - LDN convoy ?

yes mate i'm keen for that, fastest rout that time of day is strait through london on the Euston road and out on the A40 then pick up the M25 / M3

trust me I drive it a lot !!!

[Has csl]

Could be up for meeting up before hand lads. I'll be coming from Sidcup area.
Your not too far from me Yanto are you?

[Diamondgeezer]

Pistonheads are saying an extra 100 place have been squeezed in

I'm still 386 :(

Could be up for a drive though depending on the weather

[octainejunkee]

I'm down. So far down actually, that I can't even remember what reserve number I am. Been to a few at their old HQ in Bracknell, never had to put a name down then. Always turned up. Anyone up for meeting up and just turning up. Maybe they'll let us in when 10 csl's turn up:supz:

I'll be going in my 1m although I'm way down on the list. I think the car park outside the event might have better cars than inside lol.

Where is everyone meeting for the convoy?

[Yanto]

Let's meet central, early, and go with Jons suggestion.....

[Has csl]

My brother with his 1m thing will be coming along too. Central, where exactly Yanto?

[Yanto]

Of course Chris :thumbs:

[Has csl]

I just read on the pistonheads thread that even if you park off premesis, you won't be allowed to enter on foot :banghead:
Let's hope more people drop out, or we're just allowed in if we're early

[Chris-CSL]

Turning up in convoy of BMW's finest M division Car should gain us entry :P

[Trawler]

Good look lads & enjoy. I will still be in bed after a night in town.

[octainejunkee]

My little boy wants to go to mb world anyway. So if bmw turn us all away that's where I'll be heading too. Afterwards.

So If anyone fancies defecting you are welcome to tag along.
Any excuse for an early morning Sunday drive and he's happy.
Looking forward to the convoy more than the meet anyways..

[Yanto]

Good look lads & enjoy. I will still be in bed after a night in town.

Perfect for an "edited for accuracy" moment Pete.....................but I'll give you this one.


You and Mrs T enjoy your Sunday :beer:

Hi Matt
Can you print me one off as I'm
Not on the list
Cheers mate

[Chris-CSL]

Could I be cheeky as well and print me one off or give us a link where it is and Ill find a way to get one lol


thanks

[Has csl]

Guys, without sounding rude, could I please have a copy too. I have no access to a printer neither. :thumbs:

[Yanto]

Need a change of plan - Blackwall Tunnel closed until 8am. I'll prob go Rotherhithe and get out further up A2. Feel free to meet in Limehouse or I guess we just sync at Clackett ?

[Diamondgeezer]

I'm out Chaps

Justed checked MOT as I thought it was about due and it ran out 9th Jan :banghead:

[shimmy]

:banghead: THANX for the head up though. Clackett is way out of the way for me if I can't use Blackwell Tunnel so I think I'll just stick to my original route. :thumbs:
If I get there before you mate shall I leave your PH smiley pass at the entrance gate with the PH crew ?

BTW sorry chaps but I'm not printing the PH passes if you're NOT on the official PH list... not fair for those who are + you won't get in anyway as PH/BMW have a check list.

[Has csl]

Meeting at clacket isn't a problem for me. Is anyone going to be waiting there at 7.30 still?

[Yanto]

Actually, checking route, Prob best for me to cut across LDN so I will also give Clackett a miss.

Is there a service station near start of M3 ?

Jon, since we're both in town, you wanna meet near me ?

[Chris-CSL]

arr now I understand the pass totally understand. I thought it was some PH Pass to show you was from PH and not some random muppet.

Cant get hold of him tonight so not sure ill gain entrance once there..

[Has csl]

I'll try and get to clacket for 7.30 we could convoy up there if your still there. I'll be in my csl along with a 1M

[octainejunkee]

Great to catch up with you guys today,
Didnt get much time to talk to anyone due to Junior wanting to soak up the action asap,
We both enjoyed driving from clacket lane with 2 csl's and then arriving the same time as the convoy of 1M's and csl's.

Didnt rate the look of the m4 gts (those wheels :gayfight:) or the m2 personally. Really liked the m235i track car and the whole event was great imho.

Hopefully catch up with some of you at the next one.

cheers Jamie

Pics or it didn't happen.

:blalalala:

[octainejunkee]

Didnt take any decent shots (only phone shots whilst my 3 year old dragged me along)
- i saw a few of the csl guys taking some snaps with serious camera's so hopefully they'll ad them to this thread,.

Link below to the pistonheads thread:supz:

[Yanto]

Good to see the guys and decent showing..:thumbs:

Quite taken with the M2 in the spec on show - sat in it and revved the nuts off it. Also my first time sat in an i8 - a very nice place to be.. Java green M3 also uber cool. Alex, I urge you to go the blue colour and DCT.

Some other nice precious metal - 3 Macs, lambos, gt4, gt3.......but the marque was well represented.

Well organised morning and hats off to ph and BMW for the hospitality.

Apologies to Chris for ignoring you peel off on m25 on way back - was fumbling around for CDs - one minute you were there and then you weren't !

Early start though, off to bed

[Trawler]

See there is a pic of cesils together on PH. Shame there wasn't a faster one amongst them to add some colour. Hopefully our professional snapper will post some nice pics.

I saw one in the faster colour but it was parked in the other car park.

Did you guys notice the different shades of S/G of the cars when they were all parked so close to each other ;)

Great to see a good showing of M3 CSLs. I was the one who parked my lowly E30 which is 325i Sport next to the CSLs. Would love a ride in a CSL.

I've always been too polite to mention it. Having the slower version hurts enough, so no need to rub salt in the wound. :hahaha:

[Yanto]

I saw one in the faster colour but it was parked round the back in disgrace

[mattCSLnut]

Looks like a good morning out. What's this ?

A home brew 1M track car? Looks awesome!

It's some sort of BMWs own Race Series car and it's based on a M235i but it's fully caged, it has a 'stuck on' wide arch Aero pack and widened track :smokin:
We saw this last year @ Brands Hatch and it looked really good, what the M2 should have been IMHO :whistle:

[Straightsix]

Sorry I had to dash off otherwise you only needed to ask :beer: I really like your E30 325i MK1 Sport :thumbs: rare sight these days :smokin:

Thank you. Yeah would be good to see you guys and learn more at a future meet :-)

[Straightsix]

Ah, didn't realise it was you ! Give me a shout - as mentioned, would like to see your cs mate :thumbs:

Sure no problem. Canary Wharf is not too far from me could meet one weekend. May I can definetly do. Before then I may be busy.
