    Hi,

    Part of the rally route after Kelardasht was damaged by a flood that took place a week before the rally. The local municipality went all out to make the damaged sections usable, but the cars still had to proceed with caution. Fortunately, the rally team was able to adjust the time caluculations to reflect the lower speeds of the damaged sections.

    Regards,

    Ramin

    Hi,

    Thank you for the thumbs up. This is the only one I have seen upfront and can verify. The owners really enjoys his car, and is a regular in our events. The picture I am posting is from the Tehran-Dizin Mountain run in 2012. It may be a re-post, but one of my favourite memories was of this car going at it with the Fiat 131 Abarth in some the best mountain roads. The only problem was trying to keep from getting distracted watching them and going off a cliff.

    Enjoy,

    Ramin

    Hi,

    As long as we are on the topic of Bimmers, here are some pictures of a BMW Club gathering that we held a little while back. Here are a line of 02's. The green one is an original Baur.

    Enjoy,

    Hi,

    This Baur was the safety car for the event. It is owned by Mohammad Bardide, President of the BMW Classic Club of Iran, part of the Classic Car Committe of Iran's Auto Federation. It is well used, but also well loved,

    Regards,

    I have a HUGE desire to journey to Iran to participate in one of these events...as a ride-along with someone.

    Those E12's and 2002's are fantastic!

    Seeing these pics are great! I spent a year there in the mid 70s when my Dad's company transferred him there. Seeing these photos brings back the memories!
