There's talk of a Z3/4 pre-show meet occuring at the Welcome Break on the M40, just north or Gaydon. (there's a group staying there the night before)

There's a loose plan to try and get cars to enter the show in generation groups, meeting before-hand will help as cars cannot be shuffled around easily once at the venue, apparently.

It may be easier to herd cats, though so we'll probably just end up in whatever order. :rofl:

Having attended last year I’ll wait for the ZedFest ‘24 in whatever guise it pops up. And fit in a local classic rally or two. Gaydon is excellent and the variety of BMW was terrific - including a Z8 thank the Lord - but only a few other Zeds (it was great to meet up with a few of you too). Good luck herding those cats. Enjoy your day.

I'm still undecided about going, but it's been a good 20 years since l visited the museum so kinds tempted, but my question was.......does anyone know if you can just turn up on the day or is it one of these pre booked on line ticket entry things? ( l like acting on the spur of the moment and not really into booking n planning months before.......unless its Le Mans , :)
White e89 Red leather interior (But that's the wife's and don't I know it :/ )

All the places on the Z4 display stand were taken a while ago but if you aren't bothered about that you can just turn up on the day and use the general car park, which is what I did in 2022.

Shame right next to them was the 3.0 CSL and CSI stand.

That is a stunning Z!

I didn't go on the car club display for some reason and ended up on top of the hill.

The Zed Owners Group that Luke is organising have a 'stand' right down by the front, top spot.
With just under 30 Z3/4's including some crazy E89 GT monster, a few Z3Ms and Alpinas.

Weather, please be kind !

I think they'll be visitor tickets still available but I think the exhibitor tickets are long gone. Check here:
