All
The Southern Area Tiger Owners Club are organising a run to West Wittering from Newlands Corner, Guildford on Sunday, 28th September.
We aim to leave Newlands Corner http://tinyurl.com/6z5ocw at 10.30, go via Midhurst http://tinyurl.com/6dvx3c arriving West Wittering
http://tinyurl.com/5s8f36 about 12-ish and park up by the sea for the usual tire kicking, tea drinking & chat. A more detailed route will be
posted nearer the time.
This is not just a Tiger run, all kit cars of any denomination are more than welcome. I've posted on the Tiger Owners Club forum and it will be
on the Piston Heads, Kit Car forum as well, to see how much interest we can drum up.
If your interested, let us know.
Regards
Martin.

I would be up for that (weather permitting, as I don't have a screen or hood!).
Can I suggest that you edit the title to say "Newlands Corner to West Wittering" - there are a few of us who regularly meet at Newlands, so
you might catch more people that way.
Cheers,
Simon
Simon,
Good idea, Subject amended.
Many thanks
Martin.

Georgie,
Many thanks for posting it on the WSCC web site, the more the merrier!
As for the route, basically as follows - South from Newlands Corner(A25) - Right on to A248 - A3100 through Godalming - Pick up the A286 - Through
Midhurst - Around Chichester, still on A286 - Pick up B2179 and into West wittering, Turn right at the Sea and there is a large, free (I'm told)
Carpark.
I was planning to hand out the detailed route on the day.
See you Sunday!
Martin.

sounds good. Yes, should just do it!
Mark
OK, here's a link to the final route:
http://tinyurl.com/476vk5
We're actually ending up in East Wittering as there's a few more places to get lunch etc. Car Park is approx £3.00 all day so should be less
for a couple of hours.
I'll bring some copies of the route Sunday.
See you at 10.00 for Bacon Butties at Newlands!
Martin.

Goddamn I wish my car was on the road! 
Would love to come along on this. But unless I find a hidden wad of cash tonight and can buy tax/insurance tomorrow it ain't gonna happen.
Will come along and say hi though at Newlands hopefully.
Cheers,
James
I'm coming with Mrs W in the Velocity with the kids travelling down to West Wittering with my parents later on.
I get a blast in the car and a family day out by the seaside
Job sorted!
Just doing some checking of the motor this morning and found a broken trailing arm . I am trying to get it replaced/fixed
(see here) but if I can't, would anyone be willing to let me passenger on the
blat from Newlands tomorrow? I would be gutted to miss the trip completely, and driving down in the tintop wouldn't quite be the same.
Please email or U2U me (buttons below)
TIA
Simon
EDIT: fixed up now thanks to Mark Chandler, so I should see you all at Newlands tomorrow morning

I am infact in Newport, south Wales at the moment.. with the Westie. 125 mile one day trip performed faultlessly last night even with a muntain bike
straped to the back.. Till this morning when on a drive to Bristol joining the M4 my bonnet catches flew off sending my bonnet in to incoming
traffic.
Police retrieved it for me and i duct taped it back down. Thankfully it didnt cause any accidents .. but... i shall be there providing there are no
break downs on the way back with much more ductape!
It was a good run out today. Nice to see some new faces as well as some familiar ones. Thanks for organsing it Martin. I took a couple of pics the
same as Rob's, but also individual cars so if you you didn't take a camera and want a pic of your car, U2U me with your email address (and
saying which car ) and I'll send you a copy
Simon
I think the weather really helped. People swimming in the sea on the last weekend of September
Maybe head somewhere else next time..... How about West Wittering!
Great to see so many there, also good to see the Westfields to. Hope Georgies Alternator problem got sorted.
Martin.
