[pac1982]

I thought the idea of photos was so we could see the E30's not bits of em

Some nice shots all the same

[dan-fam]

looking back over them i have realised my mistake ive got a couple of engine bays and actually cars. my bad! ill get some proper pictures next time

[Jim320i]

Yeah man, should have got some pics of full cars,.. But not bad, I think the edge of mine is in one of them... lol Anyone else get some flicks??

[Ollie_bwoii]

Jim, you got a photo of yours after all.

No luck with my "monster" though.

[kieran325]

I'm sorry I turned up late, I was hoping to get there for midday and have lunch and a chill out

BUT

I was travelling down the M6 minding my own business whilst looking out for gazm3 hooning up my rear the M6 opened up a bit and Gaz took the lead after a VW Passat acting like a cock pulled over, I dropped a cog and followed suit..............

Speedo reading 115 and fcuking PING, fanbelt snapped, all lights on and temp gauge going into the red

Straight on the hard shoulder and Gaz saved my life with a spare belt, good thinking AA rescued us on a low loader and took us to the services where a keen patrolman turned up, admired the car and replaced the 2 belts, he thinks the locking nut is loose - a job to do in the week.

A big thanks to Gaz for helping out and staying with us, never met the guy before and he was a gent

So that was the reason we was late

Nice to see some zoners and some nice E30's to boot (not literally ) I wish I could of met more of you but there's time yet.

Oh and thanks to Steve (lowey) for the caps and we'll swap parts list soon

Sorry I've got no pics either, I had tourettes most of the way after spending an hour with the AA so not in the best of moods

[adit]

looks like a good turnout. i like the look of that green C2. any more pics anyone?

[Baz666]

Thanks guys for a good meet worth the 400 mile trip with a diversion.

kedge thanks again for the excellent bonnet worth the trip

Dan-fam great pictures dude some nice shots there of mine

Kieran, very interesting start to the day

No worries, what a great meet, great central location, and a great turn out.

[mineralblue]

Good turn out fellas.Scandalous I didn't make it being just 20 miles away, but it was the only free weekend for me for a month so I spent it servicing the motor.
Here's hoping I make the next one.
Any more pics?

[Baz666]

anyway what was the turn out in the end ??

[Banjo1981]

I've heard 30 odd touted somewhere.

Great first meet for me, got to see some very nice notors and meet some excellent zoners.

[mabz]

baz666 your motor is looking stunning.loving the wheels they look top's

[e30shed]

Great day for me, felt a bit bad leading the fosse cruise and losing 3 cars two miles from the Toby...

I had to scoot early due to parental duties! Bring on the summer & some more meets!

[Ollie_bwoii]

I've just noticed you can just see my car next to Baz's in the first pic.

No worries man, my sat nav was convinced it was taking me the right way but it turns out that the pub isnt number 2 on the road lol. if id have been a bit closer i might have seen you turn left on the roundabout

Great turnout but as usual i didnt get round to talking to most people but i will catch you all again im sure.

[town325i]

It was a good day nice seeing all the new faces even with my stinking hangover it was a good day out im just glad Dan was kind to me and drove slow on the motorway
