A bit short notice I know, but anyone up for a meet at the Gorge on the 25th?

Pete (assassin) is fecking off to France to live and the 25th is the last Sunday he will be here, so I thought it would be a good reason for a get together and the first South West meet of the year 8)

Hopefully some of you guys over the bridge can come across, and then we can organise another Welsh meet :D

If you're up for it, get your names down....

Hopefully no abuse this time lol

Steve, do bring the M42 touring, hopefully mine will be on the road by next week, more out of necessity than anything else - please note, I said 'on the road' and not 'finished'! :(

Byron, you don't happen to have an E30 318iS exhaust mount? The one from gearbox to exhaust?

Viley - non E30s are welcome** so come along even if yours isn't ready :thumb:





** By 'welcome', I mean as transport to the meet only and usually banished to the far end of the car park :D

Sorry for the lack of updates, been flat out this last week :evil:

I forgot to add a time to the OP, but 10am seems good. Anyone got any objections to a similar plan to last time - meet, chat, photo (singular lol) and pub? I've been meaning to look at a route for a small drive, but just haven't had time.

A very good day out and an excellent turn out, apart from me :o: :D

Anyone got a meet picture?

Got one in the pipe line for the Welsh side of the bridge next month 22nd of June. The little car show we went to last year. I'll start a thread.

Any Sundays good for me :) Actually have my e30 on the road now so won't be turning up in a random car!

If everyone's up for it I could put together a bit of a route where we could have a drive about on a few nice roads over the mendips and surrounding areas?
