Re: BMW National Festival Gaydon 19th August 2012

Noticed this last minute - never made it in the past so thought i would come check it out this sunday in my s54mZ3.
What's the best course of action, just turn up, pay and park anywhere?
Is it too late to get an advance ticket and to be able to park with all the Zeds?

Hi, I am in need of replacing only one of my tyres as it has a slow leak. I have a set of PZero Neros - problem is I can't seem to find anyone that has any PZero Neros now and Pirelli say that they discontinued making them in December 2010.

This ski rack has attachments that attach the ski rack to the existing bars of the Z3 bootlid carr...

FYI - Insurance

If anyone is renewing their insurance - I just rang up Tescos to see the effect of reducing my excess would make on my premium before renewing.

Reduced my excess by £750 and no effect on my premium at all - so definately worth trying and doing when renewing.
