    Posted: 28-January-2005 at 08:41

I have been chatting to the lovely "Gerri" at the club office this morning.

She has expressed an interest in setting up a 5 series register as more and more club members have the 5 series.

She is looking for a volunteer to be in charge of this register, if you are interested in doing this you need :

To be a club member.

To have some knowledge of the 5 series ( you don't have to be a mechanic, if you were to get any queries you cant answer, you can always ask on here).

To allow your phone number to be published in the club mag.

If anyone is interested, either ring Gerri on 01225 709009 ( club office ), or drop her an e-mail to bmwcarclub@btconnect.com

 As a new member to the club I would be a tad reluctant to accept the mantle of responsibility for this role, but would certainly be glad to chip in my opinions. Role on with the register.

No news at the moment that I know of.

To be honest, knowledge of the 5 series isn't the most essential part of running the register, the time to do it would be the most important part.

No reason why a new member(s) shouldnt have a go.

Would love to but being based in France/Holland there seems to be little point

I'm not sure why you think that should stop you Derek.

I think one of the Scottish boys may be taking this up, but could be wrong as I haven't had any club office feedback.

As a new member and the owner of 2 E34's I'd love to have a go at this! It would be useful to know a bit more about what's involved, exactly - but on the face of it sign me up!

What do you mean Gas conversion LGP stuff ?

I gather you can get a grant for that from the govt but I know very little about it

it could be a good one for me too as Ive done over 2,000 miles in 3 weeks.

 

Lovely cars tho arn't they

Yes LPG conversion, cost is about £2000-£2500. Essentially give the car an equivelent of 50-55mpg. Do the sums for yourself but for me even with 12k a year it will pay for itself in less than 2 years.

There are no grants for cars this old im afraid. If thats going to be the kind of mileage you do then i would suggest get on ASAP.

I have been following this topic with interest and wondered what progress has occurred? I am interested in putting in my two-pence worth!
Is their enough interest to have a quick get together to discuss it further at the National Festival?
I will give "Gerri" a ring early in the week.
