Hi All

I am looking for other Goodwood owners. So far I have found 3 others 2 in the USA and one other in Australia. So far none from the UK.

Please reply or PM me.

Apparently there are 20 of them on UK roads... I certainly haven't seen one yet! Can't recall any UK owners posting on here either - I'm sure plenty of them are still owned by BMW!

With the UK ones costing so much, they would almost certainly be owned by the Banking classes and Hooray Henrys who would never think of coming on here and mingling with the mechanics, What! One would never think such a thing!

But maybe their chauffeur might visit for some polishing advice

Oh Ok so I forgot about the Class (sob) structure in the UK... My bad.

BTW I use to be a Mechanic... Then an Aircraft Tech and now a lazy IT Consultant.

I would love to be an owner of one, but what a price.
