BMW Festival at Gaydon
travelled over 6hrs on saturday, to attend the BMW Festival at the Heritage Motor Museum in Gaydon yesterday in the hope that I'd possibly get a look at some other E39s and hopefully a chance to chat.
Plenty of E34s on the go but absolutely no E39 M5s about, a couple of B10 Alpinas but I wanted to see some M5s
I had a couple of E39 M5 owners come over to talk to me but no sign of their cars
Just to let all the non attendees know, it was a great day out with some beautiful cars and some nasty ones too, great weather and good company
maybe we can make an effort next year and get some more E39 M5s on show after all they are the best model
btw it was actually quite good having the only one on show plenty of interest
