The Countdown to 2015

[oldcarman]

I bought my first Z3 back in 2009 (blimey, has it really been 5 years!) with the intention of heading off to Europe on a grand road trip. Just haven't got around to it yet. Hey ho, maybe next year...

Let's go Dad!! I know some great pubs in almost all western countries, not that there are any bad ones!! Can we pick up HT and take him with us?? We could borrow his luggage rack, put it on backwards, and tie him on just like Hugh does with his sheep!! Jr.

Well, funds allowing, am hoping to finally get front fog-lights fitted to the Zed at some point during this year.

Well Foggy, Cleggy & Compo said it's about time you fitted your namesakes, you might be able to see where you're going then!!!

I hope to drive the car more, also meet a few new people on meets too.

Frankie made many peoples zedding year in 2014.

Will HT or Oldcarman put in an appearance in 2015?

Also I will need a new set of shoes for the car and some other minor bits.

How about a pair of sparkly blue you could borrow from Shelly, unless you already have a pair in that closet you live in!! JIM
ps: one never knows!!

My plans are to just carry on driving it as my daily driver in all weathers in all seasons.

No other plans for it.... Although the last three months have seen new shocks, the leather professionally refurbished and a front end respray to get rid of the pesky stone chips.

Hi, we've traveled that area several times and can recommend a few have to go to's. Europa Park in Rust Germany if you've never been to any of the Disney parks in the world. Way less people, cheaper by far and more fun than you can handle in a day. So much so I think we went back three separate times. Montaigne de singes ( monkey mountain) just west of Lahr Germany across the Rheine River. 200 times more fun than a barrel of monkeys will ever be. Wouldn't bother with booking rooms anywhere, look for signs in home windows Zimmer Frei and knock on the door. If they don't have what you want their neighbours will and they'll help you get settled in. JIM

Yes, we agree, Googy. In 2013 the EAC went to The Somme & Ypres, although somewhat sobering, we had a really good time together!
