I am very jealous Nigel.

I'm hearing really good things about those 335i's from a friend of mine.

Any faves from the day?

Fave of the day I think was the 135i M Sport, seriously quick ( not M3/M5 quick ) but a bloody good car all round, sounds and goes like an E46 M3 and with all the toys off was the quickest allrounder.

And the 335i is bloody fantastic!!! biggrin

Yeah, those 135i's are an interesting thought. Big engine, small car and with a good layout.
Now to track down a suitable ex-demo car.....

I know he was at Brands, we picked him up and got him to Goodwood for the afternoon, busy boy until next week when the real racing starts, hes on form and hopefully will make 4 in a row, maybe then he will get some recognition for his efforts.......3 times world champion, name another Brit who has done that.

There are some others taken around this time involving a 'woody' golf cart race that I am not allowed to post but put it this way, it involves writing one of them off in a head on collision between Andy and a certain pro-golfer. biggrin
