You know the rule is, the first person to ask, becomes the organiser \:D

So when is it then 155 \:P

Dunno, if there's interest, I guess we could go for late Aug / Sept, would be good to get one with the dentman, if not just to allow mrc to finish his car \:D

Tunnel was clear too.....



...but traffic was solid just the other side so probably no different. I JUST managed to get off at the A13 and took another route home, Thanks to the chap in the Yellow Coupe with a spoiler for guiding me \:\)

as from another thread. Sorry I missed the other Alfa owners \:\( JimO's GT looked

I was looking forward to showing you my v6. ;\) at least MrC and Kenno got to see it \:D

The Coupes certainly had a better turn out than the Lexus guys \:D

I'm glad I popped along, though I think I want a Coupe again for a second car now.

Good venue, good roast (nearly as good as the one I had for my tea :s) and a brisk convoy around the M25 and down the M3, the poor little Skoda struggled to keep up - looked like you picked up another sprint blue at the front.

And Truffle, I thought you were 'conserving petrol' yesterday \:D

Truffle was there \:o I did not see anyone fitting strut braces ;\) So many faces that it was hard to meet everyone, especially as we were sheltering from the rain on and off. Also puting names to forum names is never easy.

Maybe we should all wear badges next time \:D \:D \:s

Cheers to everyone who came up and had a chat with me yesterday. 1st meet didn't really know anyone.

A25 being closed was a pain in the arse, I nearly didnt have a Coupe to turn up in after going down some of the smallest, windest roads i've ever been down!

Special thanks to the guy with the Diagnostic reader (Highway Man?) who checked my car found a code error for temp switch and found out I only have 56% of full throttle! \:o

My car was the only steel grey 20vt there by the way ;\)

Tony

Just to echo the sentiments of so many before me:-

great meeting, - a really impressive turnout, so nice to see so many lovely coupes all together.

Thanks to Vickster & JimO for organising everything.

I didn’t get to speak to as many people as I’d have liked to, but I've made a few new friends \:\) .
At least I remembered to take some pictures this time \:D !

Looking forward to the next meeting already.
