I saw the 2 BMWs mentioned above leave and didn't think they were that bad. Seen a lot worse leaving other places.

And that’s why we don’t go back to them places it’s about time and a place and to me that wasn’t the place to do it.

I do agree.

Hardly looked road legal too

Will there be BMW "engineers" on hand to explain about rod bearing failure?

This morning's meet was really lovely & enjoyable! Cheers to everyone from PH & BMW for putting on another great SS & it was my first time at BMW's UK base.

Personal highlights?

Seeing the new 8-series for the first time in person & falling instantly in love with it.

Seeing one of the first 600LT's delivered arriving in not at all quiet fashion as i was saying hello to friends.

Joining in the many taking pics of the gorgeous Shelby GT350 & Plymouth Cuda.

Meeting up with a few good friends of mine for a chat & meeting some new guys too.

Having a quick chat with member's of Team PH.

I could go on for a bit longer, but instead, here's pics from the morning & seeing as Flikr's going to limit everyone's account soon, their all on FB. All welcome to tag your cars if you wish?

Till the next time! Hopefully more PHSS's next year fingers crossed.

Love the Sixpack 'Cuda and the GT350, and that lovely pale blue BMW E3 saloon.

I saw the yellow Integrale Evo going south on the M3 this morning, and guessed he was heading for SS.

Was a great morning, some really nice machinery on display. Must make some more Pistonhead events.

Cool pics! I think you missed one (jokes).

Excellent morning, thank you PH and BMW. Great location, fantastic selection of cars and a few familiar faces.

Highlights had to be the RUF, plus being in the right place at the right time to witness its' departure. And following the grey 600LT out to the motorway.

Hadn't been able to get to one of these for a while, but we enjoyed it enormously and have now booked for Bicester. Hope the weather is as kind.

Great event. Thanks

Awesome morning, third BMW Sunday Service I've been too and possibly the best yet! My highlight was probably getting to see the new Z4 in person for the first time, as I've been eagerly awaiting it for ages and have one on order. Definitely didn't disappoint! Was a great selection of other cars too and something for everyone

Was a great morning. I went to a BMW Sunday Service a long time ago but it must have been at a different location as it definitely wasn't there and in a multistory, no bad thing though as it made for some very nice sounding revs from cars

Well run as always, and I fell in love with the 760i on display, the tech just in the back was so impressive. Also had a look at the Z4 for the first time, lovely inside but wasn't too impressed with the outside, something about the colour and the chrome at the front made it look cheap but it might grow on me.

Fantastic cars today and I didn't see anyone driving like a tit in or out of the venue which is always good to see.

They had a new 760 on display to crawl over?! Now I'm double gutted I didn't get in! Looking to upgrade mine to the current model some time.

The compact made the cut
That doesn't usually happen, hence the state it was in

To the owner of this: I'm assuming it wrapped? If so, where did you go? Looking to get My M3 wrapped.

Met this guy when he had a Mini and follow him on Instagram, he runs a detailing company, I think S6 Wraps did his car.

Is it on air suspension ? Looked too low to actually drive.

2 battered BMW’s one with huge spoiler drifting out of the Sunday service. Great work wkers!

Loads of stuff going sideways, it was slippery! To be fair, it looked like the saloon with the big wing was well controlled.

Few other cars looked out of shape in a less controlled fashion!!

Great morning, quality drive there and back with the 600LT, RS4, A45 and M3.

Thanks to PH and BMW! Definitely pulled it out the bag after Goodwood being cancelled!

Yeah it’s on air.

[Samjeev]

Was a good meet just wish I'd had the chance to wash the GT86 before as it was absolutely filthy

The turn out didn't quite seem 400 cars which is a bit of a shame but what can you do. Made me miss the PHSS at Mercedes Benz world too but i'm looking forward to seeing the calendar for next year.

Only Cupra R on the day.

Good morning out, good variety of vehicles as always, with a lot of like minded people.

Another great event. Nice to be on home turf too

Any more pics of my real fake Cobra?
