Monty,

Count me in for M100 meets, Weather & Wife permitting. Trafford Centre Might be good for the latter, she can shop while we have a run!

Cheers,

Chris.

i don't know what you mean?? it's a good road the A50, just a shame it had a high proportion of drivers who wanted to drive at 40 no matter what the actual limit was...

very slippy though, back end was twitching...

but then again i wasn't the one trying to turn into the oncoming traffic... :shock:

did mark make it all the way home with his top down ?? bet his head was cold... :lol:

Some nice cars there.

1 - Dico, depending on weather, could be my last meet before the big strip.

2 - Monty, assuming he doesnt spring a leak from his new hose set.

good run out today to the Pistonheads meet @ the Horseshoe Pass.

nice place even though it was a foot deep in snow, still all M100's turned up with their tops down...

sorry no pictures, but i'm sure the pink god monty had his camera, so should be some arriving soon...

good to meet some non lotus drivers, funny how no matter what you drive, if you've got petrol in your veins you all talk about the same things...

Well it`s been slow for me this year getting out and about, so if the weather is good i`ll be going to the Cars in the park. Who else is going?

Date(s): Sunday 7th May

Summary: Cars in the park @ Bolton Abbey

Venue:
Details: Large collection of Sports cars from TVR, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Renault, Lotus, Maserati and the list goes on. New and Old cars are welcome. Its not just about £30k+ car, every enthusiast is welcome. Check out the Gallery on the Organisers website for cars that have been to previous events. I'm taking my MINI cooper S . The Gate price at “Bolton Abbey” is £5 for all day parking. It just a friendly meeting of like minded car nuts. In a very nice location. With lots of great driving roads near by.
