On the occasion of its 60th anniversary, the official BMW Car Club GB will host its first ever "Z-Fest" gathering at this summer’s Silverstone Classic from July 20 to 22, promising to bring together hundreds of Z1, Z3, Z4 and Z8 sports cars, all of which will participate in a special parade lap on the full Silverstone Grand Prix circuit.
“We wanted to do something spectacular to mark our anniversary and staging the UK’s first Z-Fest at the world’s biggest classic racing festival certainly fits that bill,” said Steve Miller, general manager of the BMW Car Club (GB).
Miller said there are close to 50,000 ‘Z’ models registered in Britain and that the club is aiming to get at least 500 cars to join the parade.
"This really is going to be something special and undoubtedly is this summer’s big event for Zed enthusiasts both in the UK and on the continent. I know club members and specialist forums are already planning a number of cruises and convoys to Silverstone," he added.
The history of BMW's Z series of coupes and roadsters began in 1986 with the Z1 that featured novel doors that dropped down into its doorsills and was followed by the more mainstream Z3and the flagship, aluminum chassis Z8, both of which starred in the James Bond films. BMW thenintroduced the Z4, which is currently in its second generation.
