Hi all,
Just recently joined, in the past had E36 325i, E46 325i, went to the dark side for a few years with another German marque but now back with our  X6 3.0d, just had it remapped and is now even more impressive.

Hello from up in Inverness. 

Been an owner of BMW's for many years most recently of the two wheeled variety.  Just bought myself a 2011 E93 330d, never saw myself in a cab but hey it might be closest thing on four wheels to the bike.



Nice car loving it so far and its in great condition having covered only 16K miles from new.

Also got a 2017 120d xDrive and a 2009 R1200RT.

Cheers
Mark

Hello from Inverness, and thanks for adding me. I recently acquired a 2018 335d, prior to this I’ve had quite a few VW Golf’s. I did have a 320i back in 90s, but must admit it wasn’t my cup-of-tea. Glad to say the 335d is more my cup-of-tea.

Hello there,
 
Just a quick message to introduce myself. I'm new to the BMW Owners Club & Forum, but not new to BMW's, I've driven them on & off (more on!) for the last 20/25yrs.
 
In the last few weeks, I've bought myself a 2003 E46 M3. I've a few modern classics that I've restored and was really keen to add an M3 before prices went through the roof!
 
Me.......I was involved in Motorsport (Rallying) for 18 years, since giving up from competition in 2012 my focus has switched to modern classic car restoration.
 
The M3 was bought from a friend of a friend in the Republic of Ireland. It's now imported, sitting on UK (NI) plates and waiting on the COVID situation easing, I'll then bring it over the water.
 
Not doubt I'll be utilising this forum for information from many of the experts here Big smile

Hi and Welcome.

Quiet in here just now for obvious reasons.

M3 looks great. Love that interior on the black cars. I've got an E46 M3 as well although it's been an ornament for the last year and a half.

Like the sound of the yellow 850 as well.

Hopefully see them one day soon when this blows over.

Thanks, appreciate the response.

Yes, hopefully get a chance to get the cars out later in the summer!

My T-5R is the same as your M3, an expensive ornament, lol.

Cheers, Gerry

I'm Rikki from the North Lanarkshire area, own what I think maybe the only G20 on here as yetErmm and are looking forward to the day I can finally get to go to one of the club meets.

Cheers,

Hi All,

I'm Tommy Smith from Saltcoats, Ayrshire and have just taken out a family membership for myself and my wife Julie. We're both retired now and have driven BMW's for near on 40 years. Currently we're driving a 69 plate X6 30D XDrive Auto Sport which I acquired in February this year and last March I acquired a 53 plate (E46) 3 Series 330Ci Convertible Auto.

We're looking forward to meeting up like minded owners and attending club events starting with the Dumfries and Galloway drive this Sunday.

Regards

Tommy
