It's looking like I'll be turning up in a front wheel drive diesel estate as my life feels like a series of car woes these days !

Right after being asked to take a couple of bits to the meet i think it would be a good idea to have a thread were you can list any bit you might want and if another member has them they can bring them to the meet for you to inspect/buy.

Sort of thing Colin(topblag)has mentioned

Just an idea what do you's think?

Post Mon Nov 09, 2009 7:39 pm

il inspect your borbets then . good idea tho. just sold loads bits on ebay .

Not a fan of the diy tinted ones tbh tried it myself and they looked pants.
Saying that could have been done to my tinting ability.

Post Sun Nov 15, 2009 7:52 pm

Dave, i,ve got some 18s here if you need them in a hurry

Post Sun Nov 15, 2009 10:59 pm

Might be a bit of a daft question - but where is the meet point? I guess it's up the M9 (coming from Edinburger) and get off at junction 10 and there is a service station there somewhere?? Have I guessed right??

Meet at Stirling Services at 11-11.30am
then head North to the B8033/B827 to Comrie then head to Creiff,then take the A822 to Amulree,followed by an unclassified rd to Kenmore(this ones fun ).
Have a lunch/beverage stop( at Kenmore Hotel then head along an unclassified road to connect up with the B846 to Foss and Tummel Bridge, then either head straight to Pitlochry or take a couple of other unclasified backroads to Dalnacardoch on the A9 then head down to Pitlochry.

Yeah I knew that - but are the services at the end of the M9 or off junction 10. I've had a look on Google maps and I couldn't see where it was.

If you ask Jake how the first meet at the falkirk wheel went - you might get an idea about my sense of direction. I ended up in the wrong car park that time - would like to avoid the same mistake. - to be totally fair I was following Colin (topblag) who was using a sat nav that time - Sorry Colin I kow you said I wasn' allowed to tell anyone!!!
