Event Date

25 Jun 2023

We are thrilled to announce that JKC will be hosting another Cars & Coffee at their Aftersales Facility on Sunday June 25th!

Please arrive as early as you can due to limited space for this BMW Group vehicles only event!

We will have an on site coffee van with treats ready to go & of course some Old and New models from JKC

FYI - plenty of space around Coleraine Harbour beside the JKC Facility for all makes of vehicle and it’d be nice to see everyone

Anyone going to this? I’m hoping to get down for an hour of two.

 

[Chris tii]

Yeah I should be there.

 

[407_hdi]

Yes, planning a run up for a few hours

 

[lennyd]

Was hopeful of getting up for a run but she has other plans on how I can spend my Sunday, plus I was at a mates son's birthday this afternoon and haven't got a chance to wash the motor

 

[Snoopcousins]

Was hoping to take the M3 up but appears it’s gonna be raining all day

 

[Marynarz]

Weather is looking bad, but should be a good day nonetheless , l am going abd bringing a surprise with me

 

[JamieG95]

Yep, I’ll be heading along. Hopefully the weather holds up. Plenty of indoor space if not!

Remember, anyone attending this is at JKC Aftersales facility - beside T-Met (Ironic? Maybe.) not at JKC’s showroom!

Looking forward too seeing you all

Might get a wee nosey round before work today!

Miserable weather here at the minute so car will likely be filthy by the time I'm up there, but sure one of those things, made to be used!

Should be a good day regardless.

Good morning out, weather played ball when at JKC too! No photos by me but hopefully someone on here will have some?

 

[Todd]

Gutted to have missed this. Was great last time.

 

[Enda]

I only made a flying visit (1 lap of the floor and spoke to no one - sorry @Zach57 i did see you but was in a rush!)

I have to say, I liked the new M2 in the flesh… (I know I’m in the minority with that!)

 

[Blackie]

Sorry I missed this, my kids had parts in our Church Children’s Service today and I simply couldn’t miss it.

 

[Chris tii]

Decent turnout considering the weather at the start.
The new M2 isn’t as bad in the flesh, especially in black.
The blue M2 CS is just perfect.
The M3 Touring looked great, definitely the shape to go for. Though I was told JKC only get allocated 3 a year. I had no idea they’re limited?

 

[Boydie]

Love that its in the workshop, different from the norm!

 

[JamieG95]

Great turnout and some amazing cars turned up. £1200 raised for Macmillan also. The new M2 looks much much better in person, I liked it.

The E92 and 46 look great there!

 

[Marynarz]

Great day with the weather giving us a break as well
My opinion on new M2:
- it's large, feels bigger than my E92, heavier, too. Not something you want in an M car, smallest in the range as well... Not sure what the reasoning is behind making 2 series larger?
- looks wise it's ok, think it will age well
- quality of materials is disappointing inside, scratchy plastics on door bins and centre console. It's a nearly 70k car
- welding on strut braces is suspicious
- overall some nice touches inside, but feels like someone is trying to tape over the cracks
I am sure it will sell well, as it's not targeted at older customers that remember how BMW products used to be finished.
It's a no from me
