530MLE might be replaced with my 335i.

Brake problem that I am battlying to solve has reared its ugly head. Will look at rebuilding brake system again today...

Would be epic for me to have my 530 at Kyalami on the track for what it was originally built for...

:cry::cry::cry::cry:

So, you do not want to be part of the BMW Fanatics group ?

Mailed Michael Broom and asked him to move me. I want to see that Red Baron of yours. :) And it would be better to drive in the pack as I want to capture it on the GoPro as well.

That sounds better :thumbs:



I've been moved to the Fanatics group. :) Kobus, jou kar beter skoon wees. Nie soos 'n sekere ander persoon met 'n rooi BMW nie. :nono:



Glo my hy gaan wees. Hy gaan deur Tiaan gedetail word :joy:

Just a question on the convoy wouldn't it be better to head south on N1 take Allendale off ramp drive straight to the track using that route?

From what I can see it should be shorter than using the N14/R55 route?:fencelook:
I hope I didn't miss anything important previously mentioned by saying this.

Yes it will be shorter, but what's the point of that ? Do you want a 5 minute convoy or a 20 minute ?


Guys

I have made a suggestion of the Shell Ultra City North bound on the N1 North, the one just after the Olifantsfontein Offramp.
08:00 and leave 09:15.
Take the N1 North
Take the N14 towards Krugersdorp
Take R55 towards Kaylami.

It's nice 25 kilometer drive in a convoy and we will be there before 10:00 as requested by Michael from the BMW Club Gauteng.

The reason I suggested this was to drive in a convoy and actually enjoy it going to this monumental happening.

I also said in previous posts that I know some people are very close to Kaylami but it would be nice if they can join the convoy.

You know, when I still stayed in Centurion, I live 8 kilo's away from that Shell, but on every ice cream / hot chocolate run that I attended, I had to drive on the N1 South and take the Olifantsfontein off ramp and drive all the way back to the Shell N1 North bound, but I did not bitch and moan.

Long story short. You can either join me on the convoy as I posted, or you can do your own thing and meet up somewhere else or at Kaylami. Nobody is forcing nobody.

Pick your choose.





Are these the final convoy plans?

They had the car for 4 days. Its the second time I send it back, they redone the bumper, put it on, and now only discovered by the clear coat makes a bubble. Now only :cry:
 
They say, they put the bumper back on this morning, and it the clear coat bubbled again, after they completely stripped the bumper of all paint etc.


they should rather start selling fruit.

not sure, think so. Seen a few AMG's there last time I was there.

If they are, report the issue to BMW as well.
 
thing is, whats the use I fetch it now, wont get it redone over the weekend, might as well leave it till Monday. The insurance send them a strong worded e-mail now. if I am not happy after Monday, they will send the car elsewhere and bill them, they will also be liable for any extra costs including car hire.

And to begin ,the only problem was when someone scraped my bumper and the paint slightly cracked on the left corner
