Most likely at ibis carpark for convoy if weathers good and roads quiet. But yes, we convoy up wherever possible!

You best be there in a 130! Starting to think you've sold em! ;D I need to plan for the starting location. We'll meet at the ibis for breakfast / so we can grab some convoy footage when the roads are quieter.

We'll meet somewhere a few miles away (ideally everyone) and congregate for a convoy round the ring road. That or a convoy after. Am speaking to RGS tomorrow about payment before I can ring our banker, so expect updates soon!

I hope that people don't go all soft on this one and those committed who can't go find someone else to take their slot! It's taken time to sort his one and we need a strong showing! I'll be there in a mk2!

VBOA Spares Day , Coventry Sunday 14/4/2013
If you mean mega cheap couple of quid bargains, they were harder to find, but there were good prices if you were willing to haggle with a couple of the bigger guys.. but as for genuine spares yeah it was they usual glass / mirrors as above.

VBOA Spares Day , Coventry Sunday 14/4/2013
I went, drove up to get a few bits from teazer, got a few bits, couldn't see any of the regulars, rang Teazer, and despite booking the hotel (according to this thread) he'd completely forgotten it was this weekend! I got a gm belt, fuel pump, stat and some wheel bearings cheap. Showings from green parts etc were pretty consistent for MK2s and were open to offers on items.

VBOA Spares Day , Coventry Sunday 14/4/2013
I'll be there on the Sunday only due to costs and driving 2000 miles across Europe and back at the end of the April so are tightening our belts to prepare for MV6 fuel economy throughout!

[img width=640 height=480] http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff224/ikashiru/cavs%20misc/10_COMBO_CARL3_w.jpgRolling Road Weekender - RGS Motorsport Saturday (Optional Santa Pod RWYB Sunday* / Night at the ibis Wellingborough for those interested) The available slot is looking to be Saturday 8th of June (the same weekend Performance Vauxhall Show is on Sunday at the pod) RGS MotorSport will be providing the days entertainment. **URGENT**THIS EVENT IS NOW BOOKED **URGENT** It's a more comprehensive offering than you may have had before. It's not the usual bang them on and off again like some providers and RGS are eager to have us make this a regular booking. Cost is £10 Deposit and £30 on the day for which you will each receive: - Separate car health check & analysis (inc. suspension + other tech info such as corner weights etc.) - At least two series runs on the dyno, with laminated printout for further diagnosis / bragging - Access to 4 post ramps and workshop should anything be uncovered(!) - Your own copy of the 2.7K High Def Video of the run - Imortalisation in what will be our best RRD! Usual retail on their rolling road is currently £65 alone, the road will take 2500bhp and is brand new this year and is known to be particularly accurate (as recommended by Northampton Motorsport who are no longer doing rolling roads.). As a one off, I'd recommend it for any owner. Re. facilities, there is a 1950s diner across the road (part of a motorbike cafe) and the site has parking for 50-200 cars, so a group photo will be the order of the day. Priority will be for MK2/ASC/JBody only. It really is worthwhile and a fun day to boot as everyone gets a bit caught up in it all. It will also capitalise on there being the Performance Vauxhall show at Santa Pod the very next day for members who wish to take part (and those who want to watch!) With the usual hotel so close, it is really ideal in terms of it's placing - with 5-10mins between all the locations. (It will also allow us to circle the stretch of road for the most staggering convoy video ever produced!) Let's show the world we can still get 20+ MK2's/J-Cars to a place that isn't Billing! Prospective members are also welcome to come along, take part in the event and meet everyone!
