Hi Guys,

Just wanted to throw out a reminder that the Essen Motor Show will be held next week Nov 26th thru Dec 4th. It is a really cool show to go see. BMW will have a large display there. There will also be a larger indoor drifting show put on as well.


Here are some pics from last year's show I attended. I will be going to this year's show - as well. So you can always just catch my photo show - if you can't make the event.

What are the weekend crowds like? With everyone else in the office taking time off for Thanksgiving travel, I won't be able to make it during the week.

It is packed all the time! This show is like Franfurt's IAA. There is no real good day to go on. Just get there early (9am or 10am)because the halls fill up fast. Normally by 1pm the place is packed!

Also... there are two Messe's in Essen. Here is the correct address:

MESSE ESSEN GmbH
Norbertstrasse
D - 45131 Essen


I think it is "Messe Ost".

On the weekends the opening times are 10am until 6pm. Durring the week they are open from 9am until 6pm. The parking garages also fill up fast... last year I got there at 9:10am and it took me almost an hour to fnd a park garage, then take the free bus to the Messe. All in all you should have some comfy walking shoes bc you will walk your butt off! It is worth it though! I plan to be at the parkhaus by 8am this year.

I think what makes Essen such a good turnout is because you have all the people from Belgium, Holland, France and Denmark coming to this show. A lot of people also buy tuning parts at these shows as well.

Hi Oli,

I went last Friday on the press day for BimmerPost.com It was really nice. I took a few thousand pics! I am still trying to edit them down. I should have my post ready today or tomorrow night.

Here is BMW's DTM racer for 2012 I shot there... http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=617029


Oli - are there any other events coming up in DE? Still have your 120d ? Or have you gone to VAG ?


Nick, we all feel for you. we all have done what you got caught doing.


David
