Edenbridge BMW
Great to see a sign of things to come sat in the paddock this morning - Edenbridge were displaying their new ETCC-spec BMW E46 that they are planning to run in the BTCC next year - what a beauty!
It was gaining admiring looks, not only from the general race fans, but from those working for rival teams too. Let's hope this is the start of something good for next year! The existing grid, along with a couple of Edenbridge Bimmers, a couple of Seats and maybe some upgraded 307s and Civics if they get their rule break - sounds good to me! |

BMW's are nice road cars anyway, but I love this one, pity it doesn't have the 10ft high BTC wing tho.
I bet Edenbridge will be getting a lot of drivers knocking on their door for next year, having seen that car. |

If you're worried about the wing - relax- it has a pretty damn big wing on the boot!
Thanks for the additional photos, Chris, and welcome to the forum. |

Was having a look at the car just before I left. Looks very nice, hopefully it'll be successful and show those bloomin Vauxhall's a thing or two!

So this car is a rebuilt (after an accident) BTC spec car upgraded to ETCC spec using BMW Motorsport kits?

The car on show at Brands is a new car, chassis no. 11 purchased from BMW motorsport last month in kit form and built by ourselves. We do not intend to test the car until after the last event this year.

Might seem a silly question (hard to keep up with these rule changes lol) Will this be racing in the touring class? Will there be more then 1 car and is the team going to continue running the other BMW's in the Puduction class?
Cheers |
