As some of the Scottish zoners may be aware, Myself and Paul (pricey46) have recentlyacquired a unit out in East Lothian.

We've got it sorted now, and fancied having you lot along to check it out :D

We're thinking any weekend in October would suit, so let us know when suits you.

We'd especially like to see some zoners from the North of England up (come on Mick/Chris et al!)

We'll have tea/coffee facilities, a BBQ, hopefully even a couch by this point, and of course a warm welcome!

who fancies it?

Neil

Hi Neil, Paul sounds like the lad I know from BavarianBoard, it would be good to meet up at your place, maybe even get you guys to detail the cabby.... 8) btw the 17th/18th and 25th Oct suits me.

There's a possibility I could make it Neil, but it would depend on the date (as usual, loads of other commitments!).
What's the location???
This is why I no longer drive an E30......

Hi Folks!

Had a busy couple of days, sorry for taking so long to get back to everyone...

Will discuss date options with Paul, but prob looking at mid/end Oct, would be great if some of the northern English contingent could make it up.

Location is at Drem, East Lothian

hi people!


We've identified 2 saturdays in october so people are welcome at either one, or both!

First one is 10th

Second one is 24th

We're planning to run an "open doors" day, with the unit being open from 9am until 7pm

We'll have a variety of things on the go- like...

"Bay a day"

This lets you rent a Bay in our work area and allows you a warm/dry area to work on your e30- We'll happily muck in and assist!

plenty of tools available too :D

"Detailing Demonstrations"

Paul has some old Panels he's happy to demonstrate his detailing prowess on, and will happily answer any questions you may have. He'll also be happy to provide quotes for any detailing you wish.

Servicing Available

On the day, just let me know what you need doing in advance-special discounts for zoners :) PM me for info

Mini "Zone Roam" Taster

From 3pm to 4pm on both days I'll have a little "Roam Route" laid out for you to enjoy in your e30 :D

everyone is welcome to come along- i'll keep the pace reasonable

Tea/Coffee facilities available- FREE!

Bbq planned for both days (between 12 and 2pm) FREE!

Postcode of unit is

EH39 5BW, or just get to Drem Train station (you cant miss it! and we can meet you there!

If my touring is on the road by then, I might have a couple of jobs needing doing. Failing that, I may turn up in a 107!!!

You can "borrow" my touring the evening before to avoid embarassment!

Meant to say- Stella (and any other long suffering zoners "better Halfs") are more than welcome- plety to see/do/buy near to the unit-well wortth a wee wander!
