Might be interested depending on what time & whether Jess is on duty that night. Less than 10 miles from me.

We are ok for this.

What is the plan? Do we need to be there before 7pm, we can premeet with you at the gravel pit roundabout if you like.

How about the roundabout where Xtreme's meet the A130? there's a little place to park there. Anyone else fancy looking at some exotica?

Usually Ferrari's, Lambo's, Elises etc. A collection of Scoobs could lower the tone nicely

Or the layby on the 130 between that roundabout & the one that goes to the golf club?

I might have to wear my MENCAP Rally shirt to try vainly to raise the tone.

We are ok for any time tonight as it's only about 10 mins away but we can't stay too late as up for work @ 4.15am. I suppose it depends on how many cars there are to look at but we are good for a couple of hours if needs be.

Can you PM your moby in case of last minute change to plans?

Could we make it nearer 8 then? The only reason i say this is that the Lambo boys probably need to have time to get home from work too

Sorry to muck you around, I don't imagine it will be a late one to be honest

Wow

That was pretty impressive to say the least. I would guess that there was over a hundred different cars parked up, all divided up into individual marques.

Flat Eric and I were escorted in and given our own prime space as the Subaru ambassadors (Phil must be quaking ).

There were Porsches of all types, Lotus', Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Cobra, Jaguar, Morgan, Aston Martin and many others.

Turns out it's the Porsche clubs regular meet but once every year they invite other clubs to come along.

We NEED to have a presence next year, trust me.

Wholeheartedly agree with the above.

We would need a choice selection of around 10 cars that could hold their own in such exotic company.

Few pics for now as it's late but they can all be seen here :- CLICK HERE
