Again, thanks Chris for organising this event your efforts are appriciated. As a first outing for me it was great to meet such a nice bunch of people.

Hopefully will see you at the next HWH or Lodge Meet. I won't be too shy to come along as a newbie now !!

For those who took pictures, i have plenty of space on my server if that assists in hosting them. Just send me an email or PM and we'll sort out getting the images to me.

I may pop along on Saturday evening if i get the opportunity in a "Special" graphiced WRX

See you all soon,

Steve.

 

BIG BIG THANK YOU CHRIS What a fantastic day

As others have said great tour and great company what a fun drive their and back, and thanx for the flamer advice, lets hope the BIG flames whern't just due to the ECU glitch that I had @ Lakeside (Thanks Mark buy the way thought I was gonna have to call the AA?)

Nice to meet you Tissy and Andy-C

C U all on Sat

 

Another great day thanks to Chris The tour was brilliant thanks to Prodrive they really made us feel welcome.(Just a shame we wasn't allowed in the stores )
Oh & a great drive back

 

Please dont see me too soon in any of your specials next time ill tell you about a volvo

 

I'm glad everyone enjoyed it. The tour was fantastic, the facilities amazing and the cars just gobsmackingly gorgeous.

The convoy was great, didn't get to see a lot being the lead car but I gather you were all having fun.

Many, many thanks to Wozzaa for the lift and putting up with me in a grumpy mood thanks to my car breaking itself.


Thanks to Andy-C for agreeing to do the review

 

Milamber it was a pleasure
My offer still stands for Saturday.
What with all the gadits you brought along i'm supprised my car didn't brake

 

Provided I don't use 5th I should be ok......

Made your car lok like the enterprise for a while....

Thanks for the company though.

 

 

just got in from work
& will be uploading pictures in a VERY VERY SHORT WHILE

 

Start a new thread for photos please.

 

Big Thanks to Milamber

for arranging the Prodrive tour, fantastic to see cars and parts in various stages of construction...

Thanks Mate

Thanks for the praise everyone, I really enjoyed it and i know you all did too.

It was amazing to get to have a look around all the factories. It's clear that everyone really enjoys their jobs and take great pride in everything they do. They were so enthusiastic which is great to see. Also good to hear the gossip about the other teams....... ssshhhhhhhh best not repeated on here

The drive up there and back was just as much fun as the tour itself.

I think Frayz and the others will have just as good a time as we did.


I did find it funny though when 97Catalunya was blasting throught he dartford tunnel but didn't realise he had turned the flamer off MUPPET

 

We were only booked in for 2 hours...

 

that WRC engine is a great bit of kit, especially seeing as it's got 2 timing belts for each cylinder head

 

I did?

Mrs Baz, when do you need the review for?

 

well done Andy cant wait to read it

 

Not exactly but as you're volunteering

 

I wondered when that would be brought up FPMSL
