Is this intended for the bracknell / BMW one, if so it's just off the motorway and there isn't really a 'fun' route from guildford across as it's just off the M4/A329m junction.

Yeah this is for the BMW / Bracknell Sunday Service.

Rather than taking the most direct route, I would be happy to find a nice route on some nice roads that could bring us in to BMW HQ from the opposite direction?

I'll have a look for a route...

There are some good roads between maidenhead or windsor and bracknell.

You could head past runnymede, through windsor great park past ascot and into bracknell that way, that'll be more fun than the motorway.

That sounds good! Anything has got to be better than the M25!

Chaps, just to point out that the road from Guildford to Bracknell is tedious in the extreme!

Couple of routes I've made up quickly...

I really dont know this area too well so have just guessed at what look like ok roads.

Failing that, if a nice drive isn't possible then Im happy to just take the motorways.


North of Guildford, North of Crawley

South of Guildford, South of Crawly

Hi, will be there tommorrow at Guildford (8am departure like RR?)

Should be +1 if my mates 325i doesn't break down....

Relaxed about the route, (don't know any good ones myself)but would rather not just do motorways, wet roads should make it interesting!

See you in the morning.

Likewise, too early at Clacketts for me, so will look out of the window at 8am and see if I fancy braving the elements!

If you see a black Saab 900 T16S with PH stickers give me a wave!

Ok folks, we were at the Cathedral for 7.45-8.05 in our wet weather tintops (Corrado and BMW 1 series)....where were the rest of you????..

One Elise turned up around 7.50/7.55 but took one look and wandered off...

Anyway- we had a nice drive through the backroads, and got to BWM for around 8.35, really nice to see v.some special BMWs on display, and many thanks to the hospitality at BMW,and a big thumbs up for the sausage and waffle baps smile

I was passengering the Elise, hadn't checked if there was a Guildford meet or not (as there usually is pre-Breakfast Club) but we thought we'd just turn up and see. When we got there we thought everyone had already gone! We were headed to Goodwood first anyway, but hope you had a good drive regardless.
