Zone Xmas Meet near Oxford 21st Dec 08

[lance1a]

Hopcroft Holt service station/ Hightone restorations at OX25 5QQ on the A4260 between Banbury and Kidlington.

About 5 miles from J10 or J11 on the M40 (between the two)

Start at 12.00

Curry and a fire with bits of meat on it, though most opted for the curry.

South African Pap n' Sous, Boerewors.

South African (durban) Chicken curry.

'Billabong Odyssey' big wave surf movie on the box.

And a small raffle for some BMW Sauber F1 bits (which might become collectors items at the rate Ecclestone is trying to destroy the sport ).

Hey rich, when you get here you can have a dig about, I'm sure I have some switches, besides a whole heap of other E30 crap.

I'm really hoping to still be able to make this but have been struck down with flu so am currently laid up at home

If I am able to make it, can I arrange to meet the gang going from Rownhams either somewhere along the M3 or at the Winnall Jct for the A34? I'm at Otterbourne - between Jct 11 & 12 on the M3.

Maybe someone going from Rownhams could send me their number and get in touch to let me know so I can link up with you all somewhere along the way???

PM sent

[lance1a]

Guys, can we not stick a last minute ad in the main body of the forum, as there are some who don't really visit the events section and would only see this by accident. I'm sure there's enough food to go around for a few more people.

Right then.......

I trust you all know where to go....I will mark out the spot on the roadside with a big red E28 M535i. So if you see that you know you are in the right place.

Curry's cooking right now, the BBQ will go up in the morning as well as a TV and DVD player with some movies for the kidz in case they get bored.

I hope everyone makes it!

See you there.

see u southern guys at rownhams for 10ish

[Gortour]

You know what they say about you can't polish a turd...

Will give it a bath though.

[lance1a]

there's a cheap but effective car wash on site as well.

[magpie]

that could be handy,,i was too busy today to do my polishing and wax...
so i may go straight for that first...depends on state it's in when we arrive,,i think it's only 8o mile from here ..

[gooner1]

This is going to be touch and go for me now, in work from 8 till the finish tonight. Hopefully home in time for an hour or two,s kip.

[ivqii]

Unless I find some time tomorrow I might be in WRX mode

[red05]

think i might try that as well so long as it has a jet wash handy

[lance1a]

Yep, jet wash and a vacuum.

[papercutout]

I might actually clean my car tomorrow - translates as, borrow next doors pressure washer! I don't do polishing, and the cars not worth it atm!

[lance1a]

Oh, and as an afterthought, if anyone needs bits I still have some stuff hanging about too.
1x brill or Zinnober bonnet
3x 6 cyl rads with oil cooler on two,
1x rocker cover M20
2x timing cover m20
2x dizzy caps m20
4x Motorsport reps 17" with tyres
E39 interior
other odds and sods.

Please don't read this as an ad, just that some of the guys might be able to get the stuff to other zoners who can't attend.

Gor, I'm not gonna make this. This flu bug has royally screwed me over. Properly pissed off as have been looking forward to this for months! Hope it's good, I will look forward to seeing some photo's...

[sam325is]

[magpie]

Yep, jet wash and a vacuum.

YES! all catered for cars and owners alike,,even the kids
looking forward to a gander round the barns,aswell

[Gortour]

May actually have a clean car when I GET to the meet instead of just when I leave home.

[adit]

is the red carpet cleaned and hoovered too? and did you manage to find your grey peak cap? see you at rownhams at 10.00 mate

[Gortour]

Surely me cleaning the car doesn't warrant a red carpet Adi...

[ivqii]
