Thought I'd let you Guy's know that we're planning a BMWland meet on Sunday 26th June down at Willen Lake. It's a great location so stick it down in your diaries.

Here's a link about Willen Lake that also has directions but I’ll give you details of where
We’ll be closer to the date as there are two entrances.

Hope to see you there.

Count me in.

Last Sunday of the month as well, maybe use this as the venue for our June monthly meet, that should make a good turn out.

Willen Lake. Ah yes, got lost the last time I actively tried to look for it.

Then found it a couple of weeks ago when coming home from an engineering show in Bletchley

We've said around 12pm lunch time.

Anyone who's not sure of the meet location check out the directions I've added to the BMWland thread.

We could be looking at 20+ cars.....


Horsetan, If I remember right, we were all going as you turned up..... It was the day you sisters car broke down.

Didn't even bother having a go..... Just don't like them.
We are supposed to be getting the new 3 but I don't think it's going to be in time for this meet.

Here's the details again:

Ok it's about 3 minuets from M1 Junction 14.
Follow the signs for Gulliver’s land.

1st roundabout turn right (4th exit on to H5 Portway)
Landmark: Jaguar Dealer will be on your left

Straight over next smaller roundabout, keep going.
Landmark: You will see the Peace Pagoda over on your right.

Next roundabout turn left (1st exit on to V10 Brickhill Sreet)

Straight over first small roundabout
Landmark: Gulliver’s land will be on your right.

Next roundabout (Lakeside roundabout) turn left into Willan Lake and Sailing club.
Immediate on you left will be a gate to the grass area, turn in off the road and pick
a nice spot in the shade.
