Midlands Meet 7th March 12pm onwards MOVED TO NEW POST!!!!!!

[Felix79]

Olie if you get lost doing a 5 min drive up the road then there is no hope for you what so ever!

I just punch it into my iphone using the google maps thing just to remind me of the correct turning on the m42and that's it.

[e30shed]

It was his Second time, so don't bank on it, you know these "OLD " blokes

Especially those who look like Peter Stringfellow

Im up for the M1 meet

[Ollie_bwoii]

I drove past the coventry junction yesterday, on my way upto worcester so I'm definately getting better at knowing were i'm going.

Services meet it is then. Shed it's looking like you'll be the lead of the convoy. If Rob is that bad, although I doubt it........

[Jim320i]

This convoy from Northampton, what route you taking? I feel like i'm gonna be heading up the m69 on my lonesome... If you are going off m1 junction 21, let me know! Someone can text me or something as your approaching and I can shoot into the convoy... If your going a different route, I guess I shall drive alone...

[gooner1]

Well done Ollie.
That,s settled then, we.ll follow the undistinquishable chap in
the Bland , err, forgotten what it is, E30.
Allow yourself half a day to get there Ollie

[Ollie_bwoii]

Jim i'm not sure what junction number it is exactly, but if it's that one I would more than happily text you Jim.

Gooner or shed will be able to confirm what junction it is.





Edit - Oh Rob I don't want to follow a slow driver.

[Jim320i]

Oh man, I just had a look, you guys join onto the m45... No worries... On my own it is...

[Kedge]

Jim, there's going to be 3 of us going from mine if you fancy a cross country run to mine and then down the M/A42, may stop off at Tamworth services if any of the Cannock/Tamowrht lot are meeting there.

[Jim320i]

Yeah man, might as well. What time you leaving out?

[Kedge]

No idea yet, Baz is coming up to pick up a bonnet so will be swapping those over so depends waht time he gets to mine. Pleny of time to make arrangement yet.

[Baz666]

going to speak to Dan and see what time to leave, from your kedge how long will it take to get to the meet place ??? 30/45 minutes if so need to be at yours a good couple of hour before hand......lol.....tea/full english and fit the bonnet

[Kedge]

Not a bad guess that Baz, took me 30mins this morning on my way into work. Dunno about the full english though, might be able to muster up some bacon sarnies or there is a Spoons at the end of my street

Nicely nominated...! I only have a few weeks of MOT left, so fingers crossed I can sort it in time. If we hookup at J15a services Northbound, exit the M1 at J17 onto the M45, this becomes the A45 which will take us to the Toby exit. This is the route we took last time and was straightforward except the poxy roadworks near Cov Airport.
Rob - I'll PM Dave - I haven't seen him on the zone for ages.

[capri_rob]

Anyone coming from Cannock area - town 325i, DanThe, No2Lurch, Lowey etc up for a convoy over to the meet ?

Was thinking meet on A5 somewhere - maybe The Turf in Norton Canes ?

[Rav335uk]

Any more????

[e30shed]

IF all the above show up, we haven't got a chance of parking near eachother in the Toby car park!

It was a bit of a struggle with approx a dozen or so cars last time.. Could we prebook ?!

[Ollie_bwoii]

34. Andy - Jim320i's mate...in his new rusty 323i chromie.

He will be missing a parcel shelf at the end of the meet.

[Rav335uk]

I could go and ask, but as this is a "Public" place, he'll probably say no.

Not unless you book tables as well

[Rav335uk]

Who wants to sort that out???
Word of warning on that front, you book tables for a list, and if half those turn up, which does happen, doesn't look good

[Ollie_bwoii]

I can't afford to eat as well. OH well I will be robbing a parcel shelf while your all eating.

[gooner1]

Would,nt worry too much, when was a meet ever fully attended
by the full number . Having said that, there,s always a first time, and
it has been a long boring winter.

True, this could be a first for attendees, but not a full E30 turnout as some are comming up in Imposters

Nothing but the real deal, facelift 08 year model 3 series.......

[Rav335uk]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Oh the dedication^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You goning with a bag on your head too?

[Jim320i]

Hmmmm... Is there no where we can relocate to that is very local to the cavery? Seems a bit bob if one car has to park at the other side of the car park. Also, might be worth starting the 'Whos coming' list again from this point on to see who actually remembers this thread is even here and the meet is going ahead....

[kieran325]

I'm definitely in

Got the day off and bringing a mate - dec7 who's interested in getting an E30 one day.

Looking forward to the drive hopefully on a nice day
