Photos From UK BMW National Festival 2017

[Matski]

Thanks for the pics.

I didn't bother going this year, the last couple of years have been going down-hill IMO. I know they make claims about the size of the festival but it just doesn't seem as varied, or as busy, as it used to.

I love BMWs, I love taking photos, and Gaydon is about 15 miles down the road - yet this event no longer really appeals to me, I don't know why but it should be the event for any enthusiast, garage, tuning company, specialist, club, website, dealer etc. etc. to attend - but it just seems to lack any... buzz... IMHO.

There looked to be several Left hand drivers, especially the E30s. Do a lot of BMWs get imported from mainland EU to the U.K.?

The E30 M3 was only made in left hand drive

I love seeing all the older Alpina models and individual colors we never got here in the states.

I wish they had shows like this in the US!! Classic BMWs, clean contemporary BMW's and no lame ass wide body cornball gold or multi-colored foil wrapped bullshit!! Can't stand these recent trends here.

Thanks for sharing pics!!

Thanks everyone for the kind words!
Yes even the weather behaved itself with lots of sunshine!

It really is a great event, probably one of the best if not the best BMW community event in the UK (this year's was brilliant) as it's not just the BMW Car Club GB present but other independent forums too.

For 2018, the show is being split into North and South meets.
