M Power
Model Overview
“An M model is the perfect car for a one-car garage, it’s at the top of the range with a high specification, often practical and has the right amount of styling combined with precise handling and can be driven to the shops, or to the race track if the mood takes you.”
BMW M Cars combine outstanding acceleration, precise steering and superior handling with high levels of individual comfort. They have a heritage going back to the original M1 in 1978 in which the Motorsport tuned engines first appeared.
With around 1,000 members, the M Power Register provides opportunities to socialise with like-minded individuals from all walks of life who have a common interest in M cars.
Many members attend track days and other driver training where you will get real value, be offered expert tuition and be able to explore the handling of your car in the safe environment of fully marshalled and well-organised events. There is only one standard we wish you to enjoy and progress towards – a high standard. We attend different circuits each year according to cost of hire. These include Snetterton, Donington Park, Cadwell Park, Croft, and the ultimate – the Nürburgring.
Personal contacts amongst members and special offers on insurance, tyres, servicing and parts can save the cost of joining time and time again.
One new area that is showing considerable growth within M Power ownership is the number of the early M cars that are being restored. One will find a considerable depth of knowledge of how and where this work can be tackled.
The annual Club get together at the National Festival, Gaydon, has become one of the largest gatherings of BMWs in the world and this great event attracts many of the great M cars, the E30 M3 always has a good showing of all variants.
We see membership of the Club as a great way to meet new like minded people, we always welcome new faces, a great way to get to know new people quickly is to become involved with the registers either to volunteer with some help or just pop along and immerse yourself with the eye candy – M cars are magnificent in so many ways!
