I think this would be a good meet, and plenty of food on offer.

My suggestions for paprika restaurant in Leicester
Indy

[Jim320i]

Am I missing the point? I cant seem to figure out where it says the meet would be...? Somewhere in Oxfordshire near a barn? lol

I'm up for anywhere as long as I got the fuel :S lol

@ Indy - Paprika is a freat car park but it isnt really easy for people to get to from the motor ways... You got to think main junctions, so that would be junction 21... Links the north and south from m1 as well as b'ham/cov etc from the m69.

If Leicester was on the cards, we would be able to find a much better venue, there is the holiday inn on Narborough road which has a great car park and is the easiest place to find.

Do a google search for it LE3 2FD”Ž , car park goes round the side which is never in use, i'm sure they would be cool with us using it. I could have a word.

If not there, there is Meridian Leisure Park”Ž - LE19 1JZ”Ž - again, right next to the motorway, easy to get to and HUUUGE, no problems for spaces, check them out on google maps...

Date wise, if we arrange it soon, we still need to give everyone 5-6 weeks to get things done to there cars... And to build up a list of people coming!

What you think?

[Kedge]

The Oxford barn meet looks a good bet, although can you really call it a Mids meet down there?

[Jim320i]

I was thinking the same, seems a bit far out for midlands. :S

[Kedge]

Still a good meeting place though, get to look at some moth balled cars, scoff a load of food, meet some people from other forums (E21s ) and no doubt better photo oppurtunities than a pub car park

[Rav335uk]

Dave, it is a better place for a meet, plus a BBQ, and a nice Pub acoss the road if you want a backdrop on some pics.

[Kedge]

I'm all for it Rav, was interested when that thread was originally posted.

[Rav335uk]

I've attended 2 meets so far, that's when I found out about them as a regular.

[Jim320i]

So whats the postcode for this place your on about then so I can see how far it actually is.?

[Jim320i]

OX25 5QQ - Doesnt seem Midlands with the location but... I'm up for it as long as cash permits me, would love to see the barn.

[flatdaz]

i would like to tag along as i aint been to one of your meets yet and i think my 318is needs a good long run

[Rav335uk]

The more the merrier

[blackE30indy]

Jim I thought paprika would be good, as it has a decent
carpark and food,Would be good down ur side to,
closer to motorways
Indy

[Jim320i]

Isnt it down Melton Road way? Too far from the motor way I think, but think we are heading out of the midlands.

[flatdaz]

How many cars come to this meet usualy .

[town325i]

Rav ive still got to talk to the bowling green pub manager in lichfield but when i get my arse into gear i will have a word with them maybe do a sunday meet late afternoon now the days are getting longer.

Put me down for the Oxford meet

[town325i]

sh1t im going away that weekend.

[Rav335uk]

Don't worry mate, I know how fast you can work

[Rav335uk]

Where's all the interest gone now then???????

[blackE30indy]

It wouldn't be a midlands meet if it was in Oxford
rav do you know of any good places

[Jim320i]

Yeah, I agree with Indy, seems a bit far out for the 'midlands meet', Doesnt mean I wouldnt come to that but I think we need to stick to midlands and try and round everyone up again with PM's... Who ever you know from the last meet, message them and ask them to come to the next one. Once its a bit more confirmed?

[Rav335uk]

Granted guys, this is "just" outside the midlands.
I'll go through my PM's tonight and put the suggestions i've had into a vote again, but will leave dates to guys on here.
But this one is a good meet.

[blackE30indy]

Jim you know of any other places

[Ollie_bwoii]

As long as its within an hour or so's travelling i'll be there.

Don't mind what location, as the E30's are the main thing.

[blackE30indy]

Ollie you know of any decent places

[Ollie_bwoii]

Toby Carvery seemed fine, plus it provided entertainment with cars smashing into one another.

A Midlands meet does not have to be in the Midlands really all you need is alot of people from the Midlands if you get what i meen

Wouldn't that make it a Midlanders meet rather than a Midlands meet?

[town325i]

Well yeah Not exactly petrol heads if you dont like driving are you

[Kedge]

Good points, but motorway driving is a tad boring

[Rav335uk]

It's about 25mins on the so called motorway

[staley_turbo]

Ill be there if you decide where to go. Ill try to be in a bmw lol

[Kedge]

Where you on about Rav? Toby Carvary is fine with me.

Matt, did you get the M535i yesterday?

[Rav335uk]

The May meet in Oxford Dave, just on the otherside of Banbury.
