carlo Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 There seems to be genuine interest, but the weather can really make or break a day I reckon. I'd always prefer a Sunday to be honest, Saturdays do seem to be the 'busier' day for a lot of people. I was quite peeved I missed the Autoshite meet up a while back at the Lancia fella's house and will definitely attend one asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_lihp Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share Posted February 5, 2014 Well as said I'm still happy to go along, might only be 3 of us but better than nothing, we can organise another one afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigstraight6 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 I would have come along if I wasn't working this Sat, maybe us Westcountry Shiters can have another get together in the Spring/Summer when it should hopefully of stopped raining down here! (Sundays always better for me these days since I started driving lorries for a living about 6 months ago which means working every other Sat..)

phil_lihp Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 OK, just to confirm for those still attending: The Drewe Arms, Drewsteignton at 10:00AMish tomorrow. Be there or be square. You won't have any trouble spotting me in the Rover 220 covered in blotches of grey primer, I know I'm looking for a beige Saab as well, what else?

philibusmo Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Either a leaking Citroen XM or a Mk1 Fiesta with a dodgy alternator and rubbish HT leads. I'm not quite sure which one will be best in this weather yet. I may be a tad late, due to hang over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twosmoke300 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Just given the Golden Nugget (its new name after my brother borrowed it while his 9-3 , the silver bullet , was in my workshop) Ive just seen that the alternator is at a jaunty angle and the belt looks very new . Hmm wcpgw etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_lihp Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 Well it was great to meet you 3 today, the weather wasn't too much of a problem and we managed to include a visit to the outside of a museum, two convoys, coffee in a posh hotel and a superb plate of sausage and mash at the pub. The residents of two sleepy villages found their lives changed forever when this stunning foursome cruised into town. XM is a handsome if slightly pheasant-battered barge which cast a sinister presence in the rear-view mirror. Mr Livered's fleet ranges from Teutonic efficiency (with headlamp wipers) through to charmingly honest french peasantry. Twosmoke's Saab may have had more holes and gaffer tape than actual metal but it made up for that with a stunningly immaculate set of brown velour seats, they barely looked used, let alone like they'd seen 230k miles of bottoms. Must be done again. There's always one. trigger, Lord Sterling and HMC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
