Hi All

Thanks for making me feel so welcome on your IOM trip it has converted me to a world of non German cars!!

Count me in next year, hopefully with my own Elan 'ride' or I'll co-drive with Joe again. (With spare cooling system components :shock: )

PS : Does anyone know someone that wants an X5??

Hi Tim

Welcome to the world of Elan and more particularly the weirdness of the East Mids group of LEC- see you soon with an Elan and hopefully with a driving licence too.

Bitch.......


I let him past cos I felt sorry for him. He just couldnt get away from me on the straights, and I was being ever so careful on the corners having seen Pauls scenic driving.

Hotel is booked subject to price negotiations. Please note, space is limited to 13 rooms unless you want to share. If we have more than 13 on the list there is availability close by so dont be put off by that. Preference will be given to those listed first.
Track day is booked.
Ferry will need to be booked early spring 08 and I will try and negotiate a preferential rate prior to posting details. Payment for ferry will be as for 07- in advance to me- I'll let you know when.

Usually its never as good the second time round but with new people going it should make it as good as your last visit.

Even now, it sounds like there will be more Elans next year. Plenty of time for more to join us too.

Track day insurance? That's what I forgot :oops:

Beer money? Had to be careful with the beer with all the morning after driving :shock:

You could call that a saving against what you'd spend at home :wink:
