I have only seen 1 or 2. Seen a blue and red new age. Got a wave off the red one!

I drive a 00 X DGM wagon. Live on the outskirts of Coalville! Will give you a wave if I see you around!

Hi Jazzasti

My RA is an Aug 93 build, white with matt black five spokes & red mudflaps, and is in spanking condition.

It has a short gearbox & quickshift gear change.

A few months ago the car had undergone some quite substancial work at RCM, new engine, lightened & balanced flywheel, organic comp clutch, full RCM de-cat system, plus other usual electronic bit's & pieces, solonoid's etc.

It's pumping out around 300bhp 'approx' and is due to go back for an oil change and boost increase shortly, the first 1500 miles from build, the boost was restricted due to the new engine.

It really does go like stink, obviously because of the gearbox, however top end is only about 125, but who cares about straight line motorway speed.

We'll have to get together soon, may be meet up at the Trinity Marina

i have to say there is qute a few around the hinckley area. lots of them seem to be a bit miserable in the waving stakes though, and i have not seen anyone on here other than you, me, and a mate of mine with a spec-c who posts on here occasionally as 'sadam'.

I have seen a couple around my way (Coalville) but no one waves. But then I drive a classic wagon and they have been in New Age. Perhaps I am not in a good enough scooby for them. A case of us and them (New Age and Classic)

Yeah no worries! Will be my first ever meet in the scoob. Not had it for very long. Didn't get much calls for meets in my old Mondeo estate! Funny that!!

Anyone else wanting to meet up first? I live near Coalville. Cheers
