Thanks to the Police, Lions and the SES for donating their time for this... It was a great success to which we will try to make this a regular event in the near future. The Police that are helping to get this up and going are under a bit of scrutiny from a higher source, so congratulations to everyone for being good, with not one incident going down. At one stage there was just over 150 cars parked up ranging from old school metal to new school plastic, a favourite of the Police being the race Porsche with the roll cage. To the people that gave a bit of extra $$$ for the drinks, the PCYC thanks you. Also thanks to the really low cars for grinding off the extra lip on the bridge, access is a bit easier now. :lol:

As the Police said to most of you last night, next week will NOT be on and will do everything within their power to make it a regular event. A "presentation" will be made up with the pictures taken last night to prove that it was a success to their bosses. If you do turn up next week you will be told to leave by Police, please be patient, as it won't happen overnight. Also, don't ruin it by doing stupid shit in the car park while the Police aren't there. It will only piss people off and complaints will get back to the big bosses, then we lose the car park, and it goes back to Police handing out defects again. Thanks again for supporting this.

If you do see someone being a tool, I urge you to say/do something as it will affect a majority of people for a minority's mistake.

DO NOT TURN UP NEXT WEEK UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

Keep an eye out for the next official Toombul meet :)

Cheers

Steve

      Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i.

      Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.

      Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.

      Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.

      It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
