WOW! Thanks for posting! Absolutely love the wide variety. Especially love the various Alpinas. Those wheels will never go out of style.

Most people drove their cars in to the event. I only saw 1-2 cars on the back of a trailer when I was there in the morning.

PS anybody can share if there’s a link for local club / meetings like that on the forum too? Would absolutely love to join local BMW gang too��
I would definitely recommend joining your local BMW Car Club as they organise great meetings and events.

It's the first time that "BMW Live" has been run but it was called BMW Sommerfest (at the same track) in 2023. Ultimate BMW 2023 was the largest gathering of BMWs at an event in the UK. You can take a look at the thread here.

Lovely pics though. That green E30 325i touring
It was lovely. The owner named the car "Fred". Here is the story behind it:

- This must be a record of sorts: BMW vehicles from all generations per square mile

- Is that M4 in San Marino Blue in one of the photos?
This M4 is indeed San Marino Blue


As mentioned in my above reply, Ultimate BMW from last year was the biggest gathering of BMWs at an event in the UK. You can take a look at the thread here.

Exclamation Questions for newbie soon to be owner for a 2025 X5 50e owner

I have ordered a 2025 X5 50e and will take delivery in a couple of months. Here are my questions.
1) In order to charge the battery during driving does it have to be in sport mode or a different mode?
2) What kind of mileage should I expect driving in hybrid mode? How does this differ from all gas mode?
3) It gets really cold here -30 C. Will I still be able to preheat the cabin?
4) What is the range of the battery in cold weather? Anyone experience this?
5) If it is really cold out, does it default to the gas engine?
6) Is it advisable to use the gas engine occasionally if you are driving exlusively in the city using electric mode?

Thanks all, can't wait for my new Bimmer!

Fantastic turnout and variety.

Love to see a bunch of E39s/38s that E28 second from last pic is pinnacle. Great seeing the E82 1M too.

Incredible photos and cars. I'm envious of all of the Alpinas we don't see here in the US.
