Otago BMW Run 22/8/10

Recommended Posts

Never done this kind of thing before but I actually quite enjoyed it. Trip was to Oamaru about 120km north of Dunners but we took every backroad known to man. One part was particularly good, I was up front just behind the leader in a 120i convert. and lets just say we were doing some shifting but the X5 handled the roads brilliantly and was behind the 120i all the way! Obviously push come to shove the 120i is going to outhandle me if it was in the right hands but Antil33t here will tell you that we weren't far from the limit on some corners! There was a super nice 318is there and man was it in good nick (pictured below) - had a manbox aswell! Nice 328i with manbox and leather, NZ New. Amazing what can come out of the woodwork... The Alfa club was along too, but only one guy showed up (probably because all the other guys broke down LOL)

X5 = Large scary moving fast object.

I like the heated seats.

Was a good day, cheers Clinton.

I've never known anyone to have the heated seat on full for an hour, I'm on fire if they're on any longer than 5 minutes. Anyhow, thought I better add what flavours of cars were there...

  • BMW X5 - the only diesel LOL
  • White 120i convertible
  • Wine Red 120i manual convertible
  • E39 540i
  • E39 528i touring
  • E36 318is
  • E36 318ti
  • E36 328i
  • E36 325i convertible
  • Alfa Romeo GTV

If I hadn't been sick, and had known about this, I would have dragged the Coupe out of the garage for a drive, should really just become a member of the local bmw club, I have enough of the business cards now.

I think the next one will be in a few months Josh. I might be in a 3 series by then, but will be an oil burner ofcourse :)
