BMWFanatics attends SABeemer GPDay #3 - 2016

Whatsup Bimmerpost

A couple of weeks back BMWFanatics attended the biggest BMW Festival in South Africa.
BMWDay GP #3, hosted by SABeemer. This is the biggest BMW event on the South African calendar, bringing together Bavarian enthusiasts from all over the country, some even choosing to travel 900miles away.

Quote:

"South Africa is one of the top performers in the world in terms of BMW M market share and sales. For example, in 2015 BMW South Africa was ranked fifth in the world in terms of overall BMW M market share.

"A total of 916 BMW M units were delivered to local customers while 1049 BMW M Performance units were also delivered to customers – this is an increase of more than 40% compared to 2014. It is therefore very clear that South Africans are big fans of our BMW M vehicles." – MD of BMWSA Tim Abbott

There was some pretty special specimens in attendance: E12 530MLE, e34 540i 6Speed, Z3MCoupe ACS S54 (1 of 39 World Wide), The SA legends, the 333i & 325iS, an e9 3.0CSi, e46 CSL, e92 M Edition, an Isetta and an original Alpina B3 2.7.

Going through this gallery brought nothing but smiles on my face, nothing better than chilling with good people sharing a common passion together.

Thanks for looking
