Thailand has as many BMWs on the road as Singapore – about 45,000. Last month (February), some 400 of Thailand’s most interesting BMW cars were at the country’s biggest (and second) annual event for devoted Thai fans of the German car brand – Bimmer Meet 2.
With Bangkok’s blazingly hot sun missing in action that Saturday, the weather was unusually cool. Even cooler was the variety of Bimmers gathered at the event venue, an open-air carpark at Wonder World Fun Park Ramintra.
The location was a defunct amusement park, but the vehicles kept the visitors amused from afternoon till evening as they checked out the Bimmers in different shapes, sizes and colours; of all ages and eras; with or without modifications, accessories and add-ons.
