hi I'm Mark, or Jonners to my mates.

I've had a number of Bmws over the years with the most recent ones  being a 2009 X5 M Sport 3.0D, followed by 2015 430D GRAN COUPE, And currently run the current 530D TOURING with full M Sport pack.
I have just added a 2012 M3 Convertible in interlagos blue...my first venture into the M fold.

Looking forward to being part of the fold

Hi all

I haven’t been on for a few years having owned various BMWs in the past. 

I’m back now with my new edition - a BMW Z4 3.0si coupe E86 in space grey.  I’ve only owned it for a few weeks but think it’s the best yet 😊

Hope to come to some shows/meets.  I’m in Birmingham so hopefully there will be some local meets too 😊

you will find events in the club mag and those in your area under the central west region. There are quite a few at the NEC and Gaydon Warwickshire, Silverstone not too far, plenty to keep you interested.

hello everyone.
I'm new here and tomorrow will pick up my baby.
She's an E36 Compact 316i in Montreal blue.
She has been very much loved by one owner and is in absolutely beautiful condition.
I feel so very lucky to be her next owner.

Hello everyone , I took my son to Sherborne castle for your Southern concours event a couple of weeks ago. Really impressed by the standards of the cars there ,and am thinking of a family membership this year. I have an E36 convertible ,a proper triggers broom of a thing, but I love it, and i've owned it since 2001, even passed my driving test in her. I have an E46 saloon ,which I am changing for an E46 touring this weekend . We go to a lot of BTCC races, and support Team BMW of course. Hope to make it to another of your events .this year .

Good. Sounds like you are in the Wessex region, so when you have your membership you will see events organised in your region and others and all the Club Motorsport activity.

Thanks for the reply Norrie, I actually live on Hayling island near Portsmouth. But just fancied taking the car to something new, those cars were very well looked after indeed. Really enjoyed the grounds as well!

Hello! 

I'm Sam from Cumbria, just joined after meeting a few of you at ESPCC.

I have a Phoenix Yellow e46 M3, I'm trying to keep it OEM but I have installed an SME crossbrace in the rear to fend away the boot floor issues and a genuine CSL bootlid because the e46 isnt finished without one. 

Recently I have had new front wings, and rust proofing work done on her so she looks great for years to come.

I use her mostly on nice days, I like driving the M3 to be an event, which is why I soon have plans to swap the smg system to a manual. I'd like to do this myself but if you have any pointers from previous experience that would be great. All parts will be new genuine parts unless I cannot get the part new or it can be improved on. 

I'd like to post a picture but I don't know how to do so, not very good on forums!

Hi I'm Richard,

Been a BMW fan since my dad bought his first gold 520i in 1975.  I bought my first BMW in 2001.  Titanium silver 330d SE saloon.

Currently own a 2016 X6  40d M Sport.  But not for long!


Currently driving a brand new demo 530e for a few weeks!

Yes sorry, I am on about 7 BMW social media sites and my own FB BMW site and other forums so can't recall all the conversations. Hope you can come along, with or without a BMW.
