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

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.

Great to see all the cars up at Newlands.

Was gutted not to have mine on the road and join you on the run though.

Inspired me to pull my finger out with mine and get her going again!



Cheers,
James
