Had good chat about motors etc, like ya do at these type of meets

had some grub courtesy of of TGI fridays.. and went for a ''spirited'' drive thru...

cue evil diesel as it was his patch

heres my pics!!

Paul proving once and for all, his torch does exist

the pack led by evil diesels e46 330i which is soon to be replaced with a 335d M-sport:rocks:

we were discussing how sometimes the 230's dont look that big whereas from other angles look HOOOOJ as demonstrated by this pic

was good to meet up with you both (Paul and Tony) and i look forward to the next meet, whether it be UK4 or another ''mini meet''

Here's my pics:

The southern crew meet up

The crowds were expecting us (hence the signs)

Carlos wheel spinning off to Argos...

I tried to hide behind a bush...

But Carl and Tony found me...

Viv's sister sitting on her H&R springs...

Tony's E46 330i soon to be E92 335d...

Love the 230's on the E92...

Where Fandango does all his work at the wheel...

My race seat

Tony's interior...

Carl and Tony exchanging views about climate change and whether the Kyoto Treaty is taking effect...

Carl and Paul, stood under their respective signs...

Carl's off again!

This nice 325i E93 rocked up. He had heard of the infamous Beauforty and Fandango Meet and knew he couldn't miss it...

Looked nice in M Sport clothing...

We found our torches!!!

Off for our afternoon drive, it was very leisurely...

We decided to keep right (I noticed Carl has changed his badge)...

A short stop to let the tyres cool down...

Nice to have E90, E92 and E46 all lined up...

Carlos taking some shots...

Ready and waiting to continue our drive and then off home, GOOD MEET GUYS!!

Wow, wish I could've made it. I spent all day installing a sliding shower door instead

Carlos, you've got some serious woodage going on in the cabin!

Paul> Is your steering wheel a sport one?

So did you give each other a shot of your cars? Anyone tempted to convert from the diesel to petrol side, or vice versa?

Evil Diesel · 08-28-2007, 02:38 AM

The D is the way to go.

No matter how hard I tried I couldn't keep Carlos off my rear end.

Nice bit of driving through Mill Hill Village with enough twisties to keep the physics package interested.

It was a little disapointing to have several people shouting 'w*nker' out of the window as they went past - they couldn't have been talking to me .....

Apart from the chap in the van on the A1 .......

physics package

i dont think they were intentionally aiming any abuse at us, i think we just happen to be there as the ''yob'' decided to shout out the window, he was most probably under the influence of some illegal toxant

Did a nice man in a van gesture you then Tony?

yeah the M-sport looks good, but as Evil said yesterday, with a lightish car, ie your blue peter the black bit in the rear bumper could do with colour coding

quite happy with the SE and the WONDERFUL 230's
