deeveus 81 Report post Posted August 22, 2010 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) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deeveus 81 Report post Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) 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...

Phatputer 3 Report post Posted August 22, 2010 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.
