Following on from a successful first meeting on April 4th.......the next one is Bank Holiday Monday May 2nd.

Link to first meeting - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

An all new BMW meeting! Held on the first Monday of every month at The Elm Tree in Heath, just off the M1 at Junction 29 (A617). The website is http://www.theelmtreeheath.co.uk/
Directions? It’s easy. Come off at J29 of the M1, take the B6175 to North Wingfield. Drive along this road for 1/4 of a mile and take the first turning right. This takes you into Heath, and the Elm Tree is on the right, past two other pubs. It has a nice big car park and Heath is a very small and very nice village.
We’ve used this place for our Xmas dinners and it’s very good - the food is outstanding yet not expensive.
The first thing - if you have an interest in BMW’s, you are welcome to come along. We don’t bite and are definitely not snobby or standoffish. I don’t own a car worth more than a grand! For 14 years we used to meet at the Winsick Arms/Telemere Lodge, but it’s time for a change.
We’re looking to really expand this meet and make it the best BMW monthly meeting in this area - we have a very wide range of German metal from E21’s to E46 CSL’s and we have all different takes on BMW. Some of us do trackdays, some do concours - some do both! Most of us do our own maintenance so if you have a car with an issue, we can point you in the right direction.
In the summer, we used to have a good carpark full - we can only do this if you bring your car along! Please come and join us for a good feed, some very good local brews and nice cars.

Kick off is 7.30pm.

Any questions, please PM me or contact Steve Bostock on 07811 722742, and we look forward to seeing some new faces.

Know what you mean. I've been at a classic car show at Duxford all day and I'm shagged out.
I might go to Thoresby myself tomorrow, not far away.

Cool! See you there. Nick will be there too with his gorgeous M635. We were at Donnington together today (instead of Bakewell).
