Not sure if their is an appetite on FCCUK for local meets any more? These used to be really popular, and regularly attracted a good turnout.
Format used to follow.
1. Select a local pub. 2. Meet up, chat and enjoy a spot of lunch. 3. Take a bit of a drive, nothing too spirited, more a Coupé convoy through the villages. 4. Park up somewhere different and take some pictures.
So, If I were to propose re-starting the Cambridge / Essex / Suffolk meets would anyone be interested?

yes, but a bit of a drive for me.... would prefer something like this closer if there is anything ?
if i happen to be in cambridge on the given day then i would come - my HQ office is St.Neots, but go about once per year.

This post shows, either, how few of our members regularly check the forum, or, how few are interested!
If the forum enabled one to target mailshot people, by location, perhaps more people would be up for meeting / events?

I don't think it can, Bob. It only knows the locations of people who are members or who have seller's rights.

Sadly I think you are correct Neil Some forums do mailshot peeps if events happen in their area, it has never been a feature on here though. I used to mailshot any local owners / members I knew of in a mass PM. But that involves knowing who is local and then having the ability to send mass PM's.

I've managed to get over to the Cambridge area in the past Bob, so no reason why not again.

We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

Hi, I'd love to meet other Coupe owners in Cambridge (I live just up the road in Bury St Edmunds). Date, time, place?

OK they are closed on Mondays. I've asked if they would be able to welcome a mini - midweek Italian invasion and they seem quite open to it

Thanks for starting to organise! Weekend or midweek good for me. Don't know Herbies, but Melbourne sounds a good venue. The sooner the better - dead keen! Cheers, Cliff
