Ultimate BMW Show
This year's Ultimate BMW Show 2011 was promising to be bigger and better than ever, and it didn’t disapoint!
I made the annual trip over from Northern Ireland to camp once again with the guys and gals from the E46zone.com forum.
After a few convoys eventually meeting up at the pod, the tents were up and the drinks
must have accessories, car cleaning products, or even just get some helpful advice about their own car's maintainence, or ideas for the next step of the project. Luckily the weather held up most of the day with only a light shower in the afternoon, which luckily didn’t dampen any spirits! My only criticism was the area myself and the rest of the guys from E46 zone were given was
were out and the madness began.
With the sideshows such as the dodgems keeping us entertained into the small hours of
the night
before back to
the campsite
for more
banter!
The early start
woke a few
sore headed
campers, but it seemed that everyone was eager to get into the various club and show n shine arenas as the place was filling up by mid morning.
The drag strip
opened up for a special BMW RWYB (Run What You Brung)
event allowing anyone and everyone to enjoy Munich’s finest in a safe area, and for those who didn’t want to go in a straight line, there was the drift arena nearby. The show n shine and club stands areas were filled with a variety of old and new BMW's, with old skool E30's rubbing shoulders with the latest
M cars, there was plenty to keep everyone amused. Plenty of trade stands were there on the day allowing owners to purchase the latest
too small for us, with our 50 car stand taking up space on other clubs stands.
But a minor point, this years Ultimate BMW 2011 was bigger
and better than ever, I’m certainly looking forward to the next trip over in 2012.
I hope to see you all there, along with the rest of the guys from E46zone, who I owe a massive thank you to for making me feel at home!
