That was a good afternoon guys and girl! Will definetly have to do that again soonish, got a few more roads in mind as well. Was nice to meet everyone as well, think the mrs and kids are itching to come along next time.

Shame Nicks rad hose went after he worked to get his exhaust on in time, shame none of us realised till it was to late so we could have given him a hand! Perhaps we will avoid tescos next time after the mission to get out the car park and get all together again! Tommy, I think you have potentiol to be the first AWD drifter in the UK champs

I'm really please Tom and John report my car could double up to light a bbq! No wonder the economy is so terrible!

Couple of pics

Sorry John, was blanking out the number plates and thought it would be rude not to adjust your barnet somehow.

How did you manage to scuff wheels on a roundabout? Suppose it was your lego teknic tyres!

Maybe we should have one next month sometime, do the backroad from Uppingham to Market Harborough?

Think we had the better day for the weather!

Good to see some of you went and met up
And the odd ***** who's afraid of the water that don't turn up! lol

The scoob has now gone and I am now the owner of a white 325i convertible. So I doubt you will see me around anywhere now

All the best folks and you never know, I may make an appearance
