No it isn't running on 3, it runs on all 4, a bit like your Tech 1... :tongue:

But paying by the number of cylinders rather than the number of doors, I still get a better deal... winkeye

I would like to say a HUGE thank you to Rob and his lovely lady for looking after us all today, and organising the meet, the food, the barn visits and the barbecue.

Absolutely WONDERFUL day out. Top effort. :thumb:

Cheers guys, I'm glad you all had a good day out. We need to think of something else to add to the next one to keep it interesting. I was thinking of sorting a few cars out for you guys to have a go in, like the Lister engined E-Type, or one of the big 428 Mustangs. Just a short trip up and down the road sort of thing if that would be of any interest?

Had a great day today, thanks for your hospitality Rob, those barns are something else, the chicken was as well! Nice to see everyone again, Dave's Silver More door was superb, but everyone knows 5 doors are the best E30s :D Steves Hartge was stunning, looking forward to the next meet

Rob, Jeanette, again thanks for a great day, and fantastic company, everybody as always was made very welcome.

Rob i'm all up for a go in some of the cars, but i fear it would have to be one of those larger yank tanks for me, i wont fit in most of the others.

Steve, Rav, rather enjoyed some , say we say spirited driving this afternoon, blew a few cobwebs off i feel :D :D
