    The good lady Mrs W and myself spent a few hours at the Cheltenham branch this morning, thought I'd drop a review on here. The dealership is MASSIVE. It includes BMW, Mini and bikes, so covers a huge site. The salesman that we met told us it was the second largest in the country, Sheffield has a larger dealership.
    Lovely place to spend some time, really friendly staff, and the car collection is incredible. There are many M cars (another thread on that one....) as well as more usual stuff, but there is also a pretty extensive collection of classic BMWs.
    The site is on three levels, ground/basement is the workshop, first is the main sales area and then there is a 2nd floor which houses many of the classic cars. When I say classic, I mean older gen cars. We saw:
    Original 1960s Mini Cooper
    1974 3.0CSL, stunning car in silver
    Two Z8s, these just get better looking by the year
    An F82 GTS (had the wrong wheels on)
    An individual E92 M3
    An E60 M5, immaculate in every respect
    An E30 325i two door in red, best car in their as voted by use two
    A burnt orange 1M, looks so planted just sat there
    There may have been some more but I got distracted.
    Some of the photos are attached.

    Worth dropping in just for a wander around to gawp at the collection.

    I went to view a car here last year and was surprised how nice the dealership was! I didn't know much about it, so it was a pleasant surprise.

    Sheffield is definitely bigger but has a more corporate feel to it, and doesn't have any classic BMW's on display.
