Just turn up - we'll try and reserve a parking space for as many 200's as you tell us might arrive
It will be a good day - family friendly also with some good food etc
Dress your motors guys - make em shine!
:cool:

Innit!
Sounds like we have a fair bit of interest for this. Who is up for a convoy to the venue? Do we need to meet near to the M4 or the M3?
Cheers
Nik
Convoying in is always good, plus you get to park together..
Ohh .. BTW.. I'll come along as well.. :wave:

The time we're meeting is 12.30
Cya there
What an excellent meet we had today. Well done Paul for a great show, everyone was well behaved and the whole thing was well organised.
We had about 10 200's in all, and for once the S14's outnumbered the S13's!!
Anybody get any pics, left my camera at home.
The Prospec R34 GTR was was favourite car of the day, the carbon bonnet was so well made with a built in cold air feed.
I also managed to outpace the red RX7 from the lights for a bit until a van got in the way!!!
See you next time

See me wondering about with a cheap and nasty disposable camera! I brought my normal camera but couldn't get a battery for the thing!
Anyway, on the way to work (where i am now) we got over taken by, a Porche Carrera S (it was the fancy one), brand new 03. Got a nice snap on that, whilst going around 95mph.
Now, what made this so different was that it had a roof rack, and a mountain bike standing up right on it!!! :D :D
Boy, i hope that photo came out!
Was a nice meet tho, shame i couldn't really figure out who was who! I think i said by to Mick at the end as i was filling up with petrol.
Who was Guy in the other S13, didn't catch his name :(
And Phil, nice windows, wanna buy some for me :)
About the Skylines, there were some fine examples there, but i agree with the carbon fibre 1! My mate now wants one, too many supras around!

Sorry I didn't make it today :( Domestic duties called because I'm out tomorrow ....these things have to be done sometimes :( Was on the M3 at about ¼ to 1 and toyed with the idea of sticking my head in @ Bracknell, but decided it wasnt wise! Maybe next time :)

Was good to see you all, shame about the rain although some of us braved the shower while the rest of you ran off like GIRLS.
Incidentally Tim mine was the dirty green S14 parked two down from yours in the "WE AREN`T WORTHY" parking area, good to see there were more nissans than anything else, must have counted 100 plus including all the GTI R`s what seemed like the entire 300ZX owners club and us lot. Oh and the odd Skyline.
Was definately worth the £3.
Cheers lads

Hi Phil,
Sorry I didn't get a chance to say hello, maybe next time!
Good pics, we also noticed the abomination, and decided all it need to sort it out was a can of unleaded and a box of matches.
I have seen Ross a few time (I think your's used to belong to him) he's got a lovely Porker 996 now. But he still looks longingly at 200's when he sees them, I think he misses it loads!!!
Cheers
Nik
I didn't know you were there Nik, didn't spot the wheels from your avatar, and the guy with the BKs was called Richard.
Mine used to be Ross's, I think you spotted it before me in a was it you thread.
I still email him occasionally. His porsche has now been resprayed purple. He spots Didin quite often and yes, I think he might have some pangs...but its all forgotten when he remembers what he's driving :D
Phil,
My rims are in the garage at the moment, and I am running standard 16's. I had to get the rims changed under warrenty cos the laquer chipped off, mine was the R plate one with the blitz nur on - the one making all the noise at the front of the convoy!!
Cheers

When I got to tescos it was shocked by the number of people, only expected about 5!
Only person I can really remember is Phil, as I was speaking to him a fair bit, but can remember Dominic, Mick, Nik.... thats about it! I tend to stand out quite easliy as I look about 12 :(
Who was the bloke in the lime S13?

Can't see any 200's in there :mad:
Obviously they don't want the other cars upstaged :rolleyes:
There was a couple of 200's in there, think we need to get there earlier next time and all park together!!!!
