  1. OMG ONLY TEN DAYS TO GO! Sort yourselves out… get your chod/rammel/shite welded, mot’ed, polished, hoovered, etc and get along to this! DO IT! Seriously, spending a few hours in a drizzly car park with real actual Autoshiters in real life and not on the internet re-kindled my love of this place and the brilliant people on here, and was one if the highlights of last year. If you’re wavering, unsure, new to Autoshite or generally not sure, come along and we’ll promise to be as welcoming as a bunch of dull introverts of the internet can be.
  2. Me am a vewwy vewwy sad tiger today.
  3. Or bring the Mondeo but start the journey from somewhere closer to keep the mileage down.
  4. Everyone is in the ‘definitely probably maybe’ pile. Would be great if you could join us!
  5. Obvs we drove through France in both directions to get to Switzerland but didn't spot much as we were on motorways most of the time. A couple of Citroens from opposite ends of the model range in Alsace: Parked outside the National Car Museum/Schlumpf Collection in Mulhouse, not selling coffee. https://www.musee-automobile.fr/en/ An outstanding museum, an absolute must see if you're in SE France. Twingo We struggled to get past this 2cv on the Autoroute, it was absolutely caning it along obviously on a mission to get somewhere! Been absolutely ages since I've seen on of these Passats. I'd pretty much forgotten they existed. FIN.
  6. More Swiss shite: Rover 200 Lanos, I believe Terrano II. BIG MERCEDES TRUCK CAMPER THING!!! Galant One for @outlaw118 Spotted in Berne, Switzerland's beautiful capital. Some sort of Range Rover type thing Some hot Maybach on Maybach action outside the poshest hotel in Berne. Lovely Audi. I can't forgive the alloys though. :
  7. Here's die chodsen spotted in Switzerland last summer. Another Corolla: All Vauxhalls are shit Opels Minor Some proper shite up in the mountain. This one was odd. Thought it was a Golf estate with a Bora front but the back says Bora so either they sell them like this on the continent or someone was bored: Some top notch mountain chod Lovely Audi. Parked up with the keys in. Was tempted. A mildly barried VW Jetta
  8. This was at the Scalextric Festival at Gaydon last May, because Scalextric bought out a Scalextric version of it. There's this place near Horsham called Moto Torque Cafe. Been there a few times, sometimes there's good stuff, sometimes it's just instagram posers in modern BMWs and Audis with stickers all over the windows videoing each other. Here's the best stuff: Beautiful green DS and a factory SWB rally DS Corolla Granadas Proper 911 Some Italian cars: 911 and a works Le Mans raced Triumph TRS:
  9. Time to update with my 2023 chod bothering antics. First up, some hedge bound US chod: A decent looking Rover 25 that's used daily: Who doesn't like a PAO! Especially a slightly tatty one in Deptford. A proper Mini. A proper Audi Herald What I think must be a late model Alpine. Hadn't seen one of these before, a bit bonkers looking but very likeable. A Beetle looking like how Beetles of this age should look. Lovely Micra I see daily in the station car park. Looks tiny next to all the over sized blah blah... Another proper Audi, but weirder. A Prius on steels. Superb! Renault 5 Old Rover Nice looking Corolla. These have recently been upgraded from bland and forgettable to mildly interesting.
  10. 3 weeks to go bump! So far we definitely probably maybe have: inconsistant Rust Collector CaptainBoom wesacosa Stanky JakeT RobT
  11. Rather than thinking I ought to contribute I actually have this time (pp f&f). Thanks to all behind the scenes for making this my favourite safe place.
  12. Excellent thread title. Hoping you’ve bought the angry black Rover 800…
  13. First bit of top down action at the weekend. Must be nearly summer!
  14. I spotted one of these at a smart car gathering at the weekend and immediately thought of you and this thread! Here's some photos... Keep up the good work, this is a fab thread!
  15. Will be good to catch up if you can make Rob, it’s been ages! If the weathers good I’ll see if I can fit the Itera plastic bike in the back of the 924 so you can have a go of it like I promised about 5 years ago!
  16. Little weekend thread bump and date confirmed as 24th March since all who have posted so far can do both days. I’ve amended the first post accordingly. Anyone else fancy this?
  17. Wow! Nice pics thanks for sharing.
  18. https://www.mathewsons.co.uk/auction/lot/lot-192---1996-rover-216-coupe/?lot=22279&so=0&st=&sto=0&au=61&ef=&et=&ic=False&sd=1&pp=96&pn=2&g=1 If it's as nice IRL as in the photos this looks like great value. 1996 Rover 216 Coupe with 54,000 miles for £1800:
  19. https://swiss-vignette.co.uk/product/swiss-vignette-2024/ You have to buy an annual Vignette to be able to use Swiss Motorways. It's a once a year fee of about £40-50 and allows you to use Swiss motorways unrestricted for that year. They're for sale at border crossings and service stations near borders. They brought them in because the Swiss realised that a high proportion of Motorway traffic was not Swiss registered cars, and weren't even stopping in or travelling to Switzerland, just benefitting from the motorway network to get from one country to another via Switzerland.
  20. How Odd, I never posted my photos from this, or said thanks to all for coming along and making it a good fun way to spend a morning in the light drizzle. So finally here's my photos. I'm going to organise another one for this March, I'll post a thread up shortly.
  21. It was good fun! It’s been a year! Let’s do this again! DATE Sunday 24th March VENUE Flower Farm, Oxted Road (A25) Godstone RH9 8BP Flower Farm is a farm shop with a cafe, it's on the A25 and it's about a mile south from M25 Junction 6.. They've got a good sized car park, indoor and outdoor seating, they do tasty but chaotically served breakfast type food until 11am, take away coffee, tea, cake etc. There's a farm shop to fulfil all your scotch egg, picked onion, daffodil and beer desires too. Whoever gets there first please bag the far left corner of the car park so we can all park together. TIME From 10am All welcome! It would be great to see as many of us out as possible… new and old shitters, left, returned, lapsed, background lurkers, whatever. It rained last year and no one cared, we had about 10-12 shiters and cars which was briliant, so no excuse not to come! Last Year: Post below with preferred dates and I'll revise the title. Thanks to @wesacosa for the prompt to post this rather than just think about doing it.
