Hi all,

I hope you had a great time, I'm bummed I didn't find the chance to join in the festivities and meet up with you all!! Sorry for not being in touch MacSid, hope you understand it's a bit of a crazy time at the moment. Bring on Spring 2009 and I will be there!! :-)

Can't wait to see the pics and hear the stories!

Cheers,

BasRed.

Looks like another awesome European Meet :D

Great pics -- keep them coming!! I love the sticker for the event, as well as the t-shirts of course :thumbsup:

Wish I could have joined you. To help me make it through the day, I fitted a new aluminium trim to my wife's 3er, to ensure I also had a good "BMW day" :lol:


Andy, nice to hear you are literally still leaving your mark :devil:

Hi everyone,

Great pics, I love that Wiesmann. Didn't see the chrono irl though. I'm sorry I missed that one, I love watches.

My name is Ravin and I'm Seydi's (530dA) neighbour. Yesterday was my first e60.net meet and I had really fun time.
Great cars, great scenery and above all great company. I managed to take some pictures with my phone, sadly I
left my camera at the offcie the day before. My girlfriend also filmed the Vaals-Slenaken 'cruise' ;) , and I'll upload that
asap. For now; some lousy shots -
