could sum1 please PM me where the cov meets usually take place and how often? im new to the scooby kingdom but would really like to see what can be done out there and trade notes/experiences of mods gone wrong/good...

scooby_si

Nowhere specific it's rare if we go to the same pub twice....
Usually the first or last Sunday of the month as a rule, although of late it's mainly been shows etc & the usual organiser is working weekends at the minute so a bit of a change to the routine
there's a few of us going to santa pod this sunday to see what sum of the usual Cov types can do with their toys
Watch this space really init

PS welcome
Trade wise depends what your talking but most the non warrenty worrying types use Roger Clarks just west of Leicester for the mods & servicing where applicable But ask away if u need anything more specific on the info front?
Si

scooby_si

PPS usual (when the normal pub meets get going again) north south east or west of Cov in no specific order just wherever the fancy take us really. Are u actually a Cov type?
Si

scooby_si

& if u really wana see what sum of the more tuned cars can do we're going up north to the scooby shootout on the 28th i believe it is.

scooby_si

& £120 for 500 miles if that's just petrol we're talking then that dont sound too healthy even if yer shelling out on optimax?
circa 20mpg is norm but that sounds far less than that?
Si

jag_h

yeah thats my fuel bill so far (optimax).... two and half tanks in first week!!!

i dont think i can afford to a trek to the pod just yet.... just had to pay out for the car, the insurance, and a birthday party **** up this week..... officially skintos!
