I would just like to say what a nice day I had at Hestercombe. Well worth the trip down from Manchester. Well done to Ron and all his team of helpers for organising a really good event. Nice to say hello to everyone and put a few more faces to names. Hestercombe is a beautiful place and is a great setting for the event. I took loads of pics so will post a few for now and maybe do some more when I have time.

Cheers Steve.

A beautiful Z8, just love that retro interior, awesome, and a soundtrack to kill for.
 
Marks fine example of an M3 GT, great motor.
 
 
 
 
One of my favourites on the day this lovely original 318is.
 
Winner of the Show and Shine on the day this very very clean Red E30 convertible.
 
A really good reg on this baby
 
 
Mikes iS looking good as ever,
 
And of course Rons lovely 325i sport.

Met a nice young chap at Hestercombe near Taunton yesterday well known to Gary (or is it Wendy), his brother Mark who was next to me with his lovely M3 GT which I believe has been poached by the Scottish region for Gaydon. Should look good as a pair on display next to Duncans. There is a picture of his car in my Hestercombe post.

Cheers  Steve.

Oh you are cruel. He's a good lad. I had a real good chin wag with him and I reckon there must be a lot of brotherly love there cos you converted him to a proper car and away from Alphas.

Yeah, thats why the car did not look at its best   I was too tired to bother cleaning it when I got there, still I had a great day.

Does your Dad have a BMW, if so which one is his?

Good photos Steve put my poor eforts to shame, don't listen to that brother of mine he is nothing but a daft ape.  He wouldn't know a good car if it crashed into his herse.
