Ok I may or may not attend breakfast.

The M5 went poof last night, broke fan belt and possibly water pump pulley. I am going to go see if I can get bits today and maybe fix it tonight, if not Im out. Also need to organize to tow that car home.

My wife needs the E46 tomorrow morning, and Im not rocking up to a meat in a pathfinder or a frikken rebaged renault which is what im drove home last night...

Well,

There is no space to get in there, I cant even see whats broken. THe car has already been AA flatbedded and its on its way home, it slept at the office last night.

I am going to order the bits today, and if its only that, she will run again tonight already, if there is something else... well then we see. the fsckup is that there is NO space in front, I cant even get my hands in to feel the pulley's. I dont know where the rest of the belt went....

You lie! There is more space in front of that engine than in my 530d. You just need to remove the fan shroud, or the panels at the bottom.

Yar..

With the fan shroud off there is quite a bit more space, just stuck in a dim basement at 7pm at night with no tools in sight meant i cant get to anything :)

But in retrospec, there is not nearly as much space as in my N42, you could fit a kia in there :)

Ok guys, here's the list from page 2 again:

1. herr bmw
2. uber soldat
3. msm
4. S1P3R
5. Bossie
6. rabdos
7. Camiel
8. SecondSkynz
9. Fordkoppie
10. bloaded

Please add/remove your name so we can confirm who will be coming.

If too few guys (<5) are going to pitch, maybe we need to cancel this, as we're doing the brekkie run next Sunday. We normally have a 50% attendance from the list, so we're looking a bit borderline now ....

So how was the meet?? No pics or replies means the meet is either still going on or it was crap (which I doubt)... So what is going on? :=):

I have no pics

We only had about 5 cars
Me
Uber
Stickshift/Gavin
Sniper+Gf
FordKoppie.

We also met a new forum member at Wimpy and for the life of me I cannot rememebr his name...

Was a really really nice meet, in the sense that we were a small table. Often at these meets, you miss such a great deal of people simply because there are just too many to actually chat with in such a short time.

From that aspect on, it was fairly cool, but we missed the usual regulars, and its always fun meeting new ones...

We did however make an arrangement that winter meets do not take place at 8am... and those that did not come to the same conclusion will be beaten profusely by a wet duck...... im not kidding...
