It was great to meet everyone if only briefly as I spent quite a time wandering round looking at all the other great cars.
One thing which I found really interesting, having in the past been to the annual BMW show a few times (incidentally also held last sunday) is that as an overall appx % of cars at the respective shows, there seemed to be more older/classic/modern classic at the BMW shows versus AITP where there seemed to be more newer models.
I guess that must just be an indication that BMW sold more/became more popular here in the uk a few years earlier than audi did...??
I like both marques so no leanings either way but an observation....
