Who is up for meeting somewhere in or close to Norfolk on a regular (monthly) basis?

I have had some initial interest from a few forum users via PM.

Where might be a central location? e.g. Snetterton
What time of the month is best? e.g. Fourth Friday

Would be ideal if there was a motoring heritage link maybe , like the Ace Cafe in London for example, but not essential.

I'd be interested. I know there are quite a few owners in south Essex (Southend, Basildon and the more up-market areas like Benfleet ). Snetterton would be good, but it's a bit of trek from down here.

Looking at travel times from
Our paths would meet somewhere near either Ipswich, Sudbury or Duxford.
And that is not considering that I (sometimes) live in a pretty central location like Thetford.
So this would move even more north when we consider forum owners in Norwich.
I may rename this thread Norfolk monthly meet given this.
Although a less regular Duxford meet sounds cool, check out Blitz the other day as we swung by

Having been speaking with Adam16vt there are approx 5 Norwich owners who have commented relatively frequently on a facebook page.

Plus a coupe between me and Norwich, but no one seen at a regular meet in the last 6 years.

I still think the forum is a great place to chat about and organise social events especially if regular.

But I will do some work on facebook to when I find out which Group/Page most Norfolk owners frequent.

The forum's about as social media as I go BBR!

But happy to meet up....if the rain ever stops!!

Fairly flexible as to where- can do M11/A12 if you want to include the Essex guys and anyone unfortunate enough to be in Suffolk :-)

Quite a few USAAF RAF bases around if you want varying locations to meet up. And Italia Car in the City.

MM I too am on here way more than Facebook.
Some links to this thread may help encourage some more interest

I'm in. I met a local guy the other day who has 3 coupes, I don't think he's on here but he's well up for meets.

Nice one Alex I have been keen to see your Coupe after all the great work you’ve done.

Hopefully the other guy you’ll bump into again and we can get him involved.

I know how to contact him through FB. Also maybe have a chat with Luke and Kirk from italicar. They've got a couple in at the moment and know just about everyone in this area

Great Idea Alex, I only get to see the guys from italicar once a year

I found another on facebook - hope Dave makes it onto here

Im up for it just tell me when and where

How about The Railway in Wymondham then folks..?

Pretty good car park,
not too far from Norwich,
Nice bit of driving roads,

Yeah sounds good. Either that or I was going to suggest combining a meet with one of the local car shows. Strumpshaw has one 3rd of June ( no pre reg required, just turn up)

That is not a bad idea either, if I am up in Norfolk that weekend I would swing by.

I think I will be back up in a fortnight for sure as I am helping lift the body of my father in laws MG TD onto the chassis lol

Anyone fancy catching a meet somewhere next weekend?

Yeah I'm up for whenever.

I’m away this weekend sorry

Anyone able to make it here Sunday?

Yeah I'm up for that.

See you there Alex - Probably not in a Coupe but let's see how I get on tomorrow putting on a new CAT and radiator, plus cleaning and refitting the cam sensor on the 16vna.

Looks like it's open between 10am and 2:30pm

I will message you my mobile

Well it wasn't exactly a Coupe meet - but with three in the car park that doesn't seem bad to me - here is a pic of mine from instagram...



Look out for more meetup's in Norfolk - Alex got talking with Luke from Italicar too who could encourage some numbers

Looks like a good day out - didn't get chance to go sadly.

Next time I hope.

A complete surprise MM - I thought it was a pokey little meet in a pub garden

How wrong I was - thousands of people attended - over a hundred cars and bikes on display - an auto-jumble, live band, great food and weather

Definitely on my list of annual gatherings now

Master mariner, where are you based?
There's another good one at strumpshaw on 3rd June.

We are off to the Elveden Classic & Vintage Car Show - on Sunday if anyone is about
