Silver grey 11 plate turning right into Dobbies garden centre, Birtley around lunchtime today. Waved him in across the traffic flow as I was heading into the same car park but didn't notice any acknowledgement. :(

Been on a road trip to France for the last week. Seen several E89s but most notably saw two other grey ones in a car park in Winchester. Parked next to one and took a pic.

A blue 35i parked at the windmill pub, near Cranleigh. Pity he hit the tree trunks layed against the fence, didn't seem to upset about it though.

White Z4 but no idea which model ... our passing was too quick and he was behind a van! End of the Taxo Road in Argeles, South of France ... he had his roof down so obviously hasn't got a bald spot like mine because I had the roof up and aircon on max ... it was 33 degrees! ... 8)

Black 2010 e89 with what I think was walnut leather interior. Followed her up the A41 from Chester to Whitchurch for a few miles today at about 5pm. When I turned off she gave me a wave up over her head. I did the same. We were both top down enjoying the sun.

Spotted a red 35i/is with what looked like orange seats going down the red road in Camberley. I was going the opposite way.

A bit late but White E89 (but no idea which model) 1.30pm Tuesday 20th just coming off the A690 in Sunderland onto Doxford Way being driven by a very sporty looking female with a pony tail and pink baseball cap. (Yes I did take more notice of her than the car) Did wave but she didn't see me or chose not to :(
