Cool New meeting spot ???

Pretty sure this is where the Rivenhall Fox used to be?? Right by the side of the A12, just north of Witham.

Looks kinda cool

It's further down the A12 From the Fox (Towards Colch) Its the place that had the sign like Harrods that was in the papers last year.

It's just past the fox, it used to be a happy eater there's also a van sales place on the same site (which used to be a petrol station) and a BP on the opposite side, think they have had a couple of hot rod meets to!!

Probably going to give this a try tonight as my son drives an EVO and is with the MLR. Don't think there will be very many EVO's so a Scoob or two might be welcome!

Went to the MLR meet on Saturday evening.
This would make a very good venue for a Subaru meet. On the lines of the Ace (but without that wonderful sense of history!) There were about a dozen EVO's plus a few other makes but just one Impreza - me!
Most people were eating there so the service was a bit slow, but worth the wait. The car park is also plenty big enough. It's pretty new but I think it'll get quite popular - My sons GF is a regional organisor for the Fiesta ST group and she booked a meet there for May, instead of their usual Halfway House meet, while she was there!
