Andy you are a clever fellow!! - love the June 8! ;D ;D Auto sign up pretty neat too! Hopefully job done - if not pls let me know.

Sorry for the above did not mean to start an avalanche of pre-emptive groans - it was tongue in cheek and hope that I would not have a serious clash of dates! As a peripheral member (somewhere in outer space) and net taker from the club I would not seek to influence your deliberations in any way. You have established patterns of activity which have stood the test of time - so hats off. Look forward to it whenever it is.

pls register my interest its dependent on clashing with certain other things in June (eg Le Mans) pls let us have a date as soon as- maybe sooner than later - May??

Ouch - good luck with the repairs.

I have never seen so much XXXX stuff on here! Shows all things are possible!!

Congrats to one and all re the stand and the Club Award especially on the 30 year anniversary. Lots of shiny MkII's having had hours of love, TLC, elbow grease and pennies lavished on them. It seems a good time was had by all judging by this thread. Popped up for a couple of hours on Sat pm and chatted with a couple of exibitors - unfortunatley busy schedule last weekend - the convertible got us there and back in one piece.

This meet is the bus been the last 2 years we will try our best - maybe not for the posers but really interesting for the rest of us!!

Seems a good idea to head to Bridgwater on 6 November for RR action this year this year!!!

Well done to one and all to get a stand together and lots of cars - they looked well. Plenty of good retro vehicles not seen before - generally more standard - enjoyed it. Really much more gentile this year cf last year. Lots of bottled water and meusli/apricot yoghurt!! The track was not as exciting as the previous year when it was run the other way round - I guess the health and safety boys were worried about someone going down the hill and not stopping!! Need lots of grunt to get round the bottom corner and up the hill twice. Matey rolling his escort went some way to redressing the balance. Easy to get to, the track, the cars and the museum as a pleasant aside makes it a good day out.

One attraction of that venue last year was that for those who wished to give their motors a blast there was the opportunity to drive them around the small track that is next to the Haynes motor museum - for a small fee (£10 I think) - you are able to complete a couple of loops on the tarmac track and provoded with a crash helmet plus safety briefing. There was a speed gun so you could try to better your mates. It also provided some good viewing for the other folks watching. This iwas not recommended for the 'shiny set' as it was fairly bumpy tarmac.

Is this going to be after the General Election?

Well done and good luck!

There was a message: mk2cav.com till today! is that what you mean?

There are plenty around - unfortunately the members' map does not work. That used to make it easy to track folks down!! I live near Watford. cheers Roger

At least nobody will pester you to sell it for banger racing. A common request if you have a daily driver (ie not pristine).
