disappointed to have missed it, but like the colour coordinated parking

It is interesting to note that tourers outnumbered saloons, and that diesels outnumbered petrol ! A portent to the future maybe ?

I hope that everybody enjoyed the meet, and got something useful out of it, even if it was to discover that failed 3 speed fans are far more common than thought !!!

Thanks for organising the meet Mark, it was a good turnout.

Next time I will bring my V6 saloon to balance out the diesel tourers!

I was really pleased that Chris was able to give my car a good going over with the T4. He is a good knowledgeable guy.

It was bad news about b_1_rd.
Having had to replace all four road springs on my V6, I feel your pain.

Although, Steve, we all hope to see you next time....

Thanks for organising this Mark.
Had a nice day, and with today's donations for the t4 his, we have got £70 to go to Naomi House. I will drop this off in their Fareham shop some point this week. Thank you for your generosity guys.

Chris

Just to add my thanks to Mark for organising the event. It was nice to meet you guys, very friendly and helpful bunch. Special thanks to Chris who sorted out a few problems with the car, not least of which was to get the bonnet open from underneath, very clever.

Sorry for the delay in organising another meet, family death unfortunately not the right one

Ok. Anybody feel up to another meet?

When ?

Any ideas for alternative locations ?

We may have 2 T4s & a TOAF or 2 !

And a few more 75s !
