  1. Yeah, it was a complete ball ache. Straight outa Cobham into creeping traffic. Well over an hour from there to Ace.
  2. Just a thought in advance Martin, but if there's going to be a rendezvous at Cobham services again could it be a bit earlier? I can't recall what time we met and set off last year (10 ish at least) but the mid morning M25 traffic was a nightmare. I reckon a strict 09:30 departure would see us at the Ace not a lot before 11:00 anyway.
  3. Yep, I saw the signs for that road closure. I later learned that it was a bike accident and the fatality was a friend of a friend of my daughter's.
  4. All clear thankfully. Thanks for highlighting the issue, will be keeping an eye on that area.
  5. Jeeez, that's not good. You can guess what I'll be checking today.
  6. Pleased to see that one Z got along at least - did you talk to the owner? I think he's on this forum. Were you there quite early? Later in the morning the car park became pretty full.
  7. I won't be there in the Z, but a couple others might be. Going to be cold so I can't vouch for how many will attend.
  8. i30N? Funnily enough I'm looking into one of those - the new 2021 model.
  9. And I forgot to add, the car was with Abbey for a few days for tuning and dyno runs a couple of months ago. They'd have noticed if something was amiss I'm sure. If still in doubt or concerened, you could always get a check on the battery/charging system carried out.
  10. How is the voltmeter actually supposed to behave? On start from cold mine goes around to 13/14v ish, then drops slightly after 5 or 10 minutes. I'm not aware of any problems and don't have any battery issues that I'm aware of.
  11. How did I miss this post? Great event, if not a little frustrating to get to via the M25/M3. Count me in again this year.
  12. Next Bletchingley Arms meet is Saturday 15th January, 09:30 to 11:30.
  13. I'm local (ish) to Brighton and never heard of it! Saturday 23rd April, free at the moment. 😊
  14. Welcome along. Good photo of your Z in the snow at the Brunnchen car park. Spent a good few hours (days) there!
  15. Welcome along, good to have you aboard. Per Andy's note above, we need a few photos!
  16. I know, I had it for three years and was the first owner in the UK after it was imported from Japan. Oh well.... Good decision on your E91.
  17. I love old BMWs and miss having one for shows etc. My last one was an E39 540 Sport, a Jap import and in perfect condition - I regret selling it. Depending on your circumstances of course, I'd hang on to your E91. Rare and certainly a modern classic, good looking tourer as well.
  18. Abbey Motorsport - nuff said... Z owners come from a significant distance away (see Sim above in Leicester, for example) and even further. Fortunately, I'm only about 12 miles from them!
  19. No, I wasn't thinking of upping from standard 285s, just checking my eyesight! My factory size 245 Potenzas on the front look "stretched" as the tyrewall falls inwards from the rim quite noticably, as if they actually need to be wider. Your wider PS4s look perfect on the front with the vertical wall.
  20. She's looking good there Willsy. Coming up to a year of ownership myself next month. So, the new boots - am I reading the rear tyre wall correctly, 305s??!! What size is on the front, the standard 245s?
