With Goltrack.

Anyone here going?

Only two groups so no waiting around and only £195

I'll be there if the new gearbox has been fitted in the CSL...

A common problem or have you been abusing it?

SMG actuator problem meant that 4th gear miscued quite often and was clearly wearing out the baulk ring on the 4th gear synchro, so I asked those nice BMW people to change it as a precaution, to which they did. Under warranty. Nice people. New flywheel too for some reason...

Bargain that.

Unfortunately car in too many bits and no tires. Bugger!

Could you let me have the name of the service manager so I can get my dealer to liaise and finally get mine sorted.

Thanks

So, should I put the cups on, or keep the PS2s on?

Weather anyone?

I'll be there in a blue VX220. Looking forward to it but not sure about the 6am start on a Sunday morning.

The weather is looking good. I've purchased copious quantities of jelly babaies and chcoclate mini-eggs should the gixer assemble his collection of bits together and actually show up!!!!

If he doesn't the reset of us can eat them.

I'll be there! Car back today resplendent in its repairedness.

Just need to get the new cups fitted.

That'll help me with my New years resolution then - less chocolate to eat is a good thing.

It's a nice turnout for Sunday with a great mix of machinery.
