• So my dad and a couple of mates did their first classic trial last weekend as a prelude to the one we're doing a week on Sunday. My dad realised they might be out of their depth when he parked the 3 Series Compact for scrutineering and a guy came running over saying "Sorry lads, you can't park there, this is for the competitors..."

    Needless to say, they struggled but had a laugh. We're now making plans to make some mods to the car once I arrive. First plan is to give it some more ground clearance.
