    This thread has been created to give info etc on the tour, arrangements for travel/convoy etc. ALL BANTER TO GO IN THE OTHER THREAD... :approve:


    Anyone fancy a tour of the BMW Factory to see the new model being built ? ?

    I have spoken with the lovely Ulrika ka ka ka ka at BMW Oxford (who arranges the tours) and have arranged another date for a tour. As with all the changes currently going on in the factory, she can't confirm it for absolute definate, but she does not see it being a problem.

    The date I have selected (to ensure I keep my plums and my marriage) is Friday 13th April (anyone superstitious ?)

    The format will be the same, leave early on Friday morning from various locations for a convoy down to Oxford, Bite to eat, tour at approx 18:00hrs, then back to the bar for a chat. On the Sat, people can suit themselves... (some came straight back up the road, some went on holiday, some went to a car museum on the way home... all up to yourselves).


    For those that want a wee bit more info - see last year's thread... http://www.newminiscotland.co.uk/snitzforums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5667
