Wiltshire Meet, Sunday 5th Sept - 22/07/2010 07:23

Think its time we had a meet in the area. Thinking we maybe meet at Atwell Wilson motor museum in Calne mid afternoon for a look round then a drive over to a pub, Waggon and Horses at Beckhampton.

I'll start the list

Ok, I've just spoken to a gent at the museum, if there is about 10 of us we can get a bit of discount on entrance fee, probably a £1 off per ticket.

Hi,
The Boss and I are somewhat older than the rest of you, but we would love to come to the meet in our coupe, we like a little speed, and it would be interesting to meet the other members. We live in Wiltshire and this would be quite local for us.I was just wondering if our age would preclude us?
your comments would be appreciated.
Bob & the Boss.

Age does not matter Bob, this forum is unique, there are members in their 20's and members in there 60's. We all have one thing in common, an interest in coupe's and that's all that matters thumb

I'm 40 by-the-way laugh

Ditto those comments, and I'm 35, and have a mild addiction to all things coupe. For which I'm on medication to calm my expensive habit and for my sanity laugh

Good to meet some new faces. Definitely up for a more regular pub centred meet too.

And the museum satisfied my Jag fetish nicely too. Got pics to upload, not many of the coops though, well, it was rainy, but I did get one of coupeboys' led rear lights smile

Good to meet everyone today. The Boss and I made some new like - minded friends, and we both look forward to the next meeting.
The museum was excellent, with seeing some of the old cars I used to drive when I was about 17years old.
It was also good to see the innovation used by different owners to style and improve their cars, as can be seen from the photographs.all the cars were individual, and well maintained,
lets hope we get another meet soon.
Bob & the Boss. smile smile smile
