Hello David, I will be going down from North Lincs in my E21, Henna Red, 323i, and I am intending to park up with the Sharknose collection. Hope to see you there and that the weather is okay. Steve

Hi Steve, sorry I didn't get to say goodbye this afternoon. The rain was there to stay, so I decided to exit stage left!
Good to see you and everyone else today at Gaydon. Good turn out of E21's this year.
You will be pleased to know that my car is cleaned and tucked up in the garage!

Hello Kent, Yes, I felt quite lonely when I returned to the E21 pitch and yours and a few more of the E21s had decided to leave early due to the rain. I can confirm that you made a sensible decision as it continued to rain on and off. I left for the 130 mile return trip home at about 3pm. Weather permitting hope to see you, everyone else and their E21s next year. No more sleepless nights now that your car is all tucked up in the garage again.

You are welcome Jeroen. Hopefully next year there will be even more examples. Judging from the comments, questions and interest shown at the show the E21 is on the ascendance. Regards, Steve.

Hello, Just stumbled across these images and video that I took whilst at the BMW Car Club Festival at Gaydon 2019. They show that there is something for everyone and that it can be a family day out.
