Thanks for pics chaps.

I'm gutted I didn't make the cut. Is there a repeat visit planned for later in the year?

Thumbs up to PH and BMW for making this happen!
Very well organised and laid back event, great weather too.
The sausage burgers were very nice!

Had a great morning! Good venue that one!

The TVR liked the car park acoustics smile

Nice to bump in to some old familiar faces too!

Had a great morning with my kids - BMW were very accommodating so hats off to them. Loved the noise the m4 GTS makes. Will sort some photos when I get home

Yes as others have said that was an excellent morning and always good to speak to a lot of familiar faces. The sun even came out for us as well.

Thanks BMW and PH.

Easily one of the best Sunday Services yet. Well organised, great cars both on display and attendees cars, all with a breakfast, coffee and pre-ordered sunshine. Thanks to BMW (I even saw indicators being used biggrin) and the Pistonheads crew.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, although my front splitter did not like the ramp angles in the multi-story car park.

Excellent organisation and the venue worked well as I had my doubts over the multi-storey car park but in the rain would have been perfect. The fact that we had sunshine made it even better. Thanks to BMW MINI and Pistonheads.
The new M2 certainly looks amazing in the metal with the bespoke bulging arches and bumpers. Great to see the M cars colour range too. Hope those that went ventured up near the top of the car park where there was the most amazing red i8 lurking. It should have been out the front of the building!
Quite rightly dominated by BMW's I only saw 1 Ferrari, 1 Aston and 1 Renault (mine wink) on site so the Germans ruled!

F*cking brilliant day. Possibly one of my favourite PHSSeseses, and I've done a few now!

Loved climbing on the bikes in the main offices, I've never sat on one in my life so the difference between the different types was brilliant to experience. Really fancy doing my bike licence now...

Also, seeing and prodding the i8 up close gives you a whole new appreciation for the car. I was surprised at how flexible the panels were, but also how relatively practical the rear seats were. Think I'll give my local dealer a call about one, very distinctive car smile



But yeah, thanks to Ollie & co and BMW for organising, and that was a proper sausage bap too clap

The only problem I could see with the i8 was climbing out of it, I certainly didn't do it with style!

Great morning thanks guys, think the car park worked well gave a nice sound for everything turning up including that TVR lol. Baps and coffee went down well, and nice to be able to crawl all over the M2 and M4 GTS.

Another gaggle of 1 M Coupes in the car park too, I've never seen so many in one place!

The strangest thing about that is, none of us know each other or planned to turn up together.

Great event, big thanks to BMW for hosting a very impressive Sunday service, the free breakfast was greatly received, the staff were really helpful along with friendly and enthusiastic.

Loved the M235i race/track car- if they make an m2 csl then i'll put my name down for one if they made it look like that one...

My pal who made the 300 list jumped in with me, as i really wanted to drive to this one despite not making the final draft.

Have a feeling a few extra snuck in here and there and the event clearly could of held more numbers which is a shame for those that missed out.

Thanks Pistonheads crew for organising another great Sunday Service.
Never seen so many 1M's or CSL's in one place myself.

See you at the next one hopefully.

Cheers Jamie

Great meet, even the weather was as good as you can expect for early Feb. Actually made us proud to be BMW owners.







Someone clearly excited about their Z4M wink


Compliments to the BMW staff who started the cars and gave them revs, I'm sure it will have helped run in the GTS engine hehe. First time we sat in either the i3 or i8, liked them both.

Cheers, Dave and Beth

Looks like a great event and shame I didn't make the cut and get into the magic 300.

Appears a number of people who didn't get into the 300 just turned up anyhow and got in. Surely this defeats the point of the list in the first place?
