Following interest from various recent buyers in the area, I am proposing the following:

Target date: Sunday 28th Sep
Backup plan if peeing down: Sunday 5th October

Meet at Wotton Hatch pub 11:00, just west of Wescott/Dorking on the A25 grab a coffee then depart 11:30 ish

Route through Gomshall, Ewhurst, Rudgwick, Ockley, stop at the Surrey Oaks in Newdigate for a natter and an ale.

Pencil in the dates if you fancy joining in. Any other suggestions on route welcome.
OK, weather looking promising so we'll stick to Plan A for this coming Sunday. Hope to see a few of you there, if a success we can fix a follow-up for those unable to make it this weekend.

Miraculously nothing has cropped up (or fallen off!) to prevent making this on Sunday. Looking forward to seeing a few wedges too, my first drive in a TVR was in a 450 SEAC.

Fine by me as long as they stay at the back to avoid holding us up wink

lol for me - having a spin in the wet earlier this year means I'll be taking it easy for a while! wink My little bro once went from 0 - 9 points in the space of 1 week. By the time he got notified for the first offense he had already committed the second (one of them was a 6point on it's own) - he managed to stay away from the magic 12 though and it's all wiped now =)

Aaaaaaaaaggghhhhh furious

Just been out to fuel up and I've got coolant p****ing out of the front end. Off to Elmwood to see if its a quick fix or terminal for the week.

Looking unlikely to be able to join unless someone offers a passenger seat.

Did this but didn't hang around at the end. Sadly too many things to do on a Sunday.

It was good you meet you guys and very strange to drive around my local lanes amongst several Tuscans, (2 wedges and another chim ). We ended up about 3 miles from my house!

Till the next time!

Great to meet everyone - sorry I couldn't stay - wife away since Thursday and she just got back today.
My camera phone is far from the best so hope others can upload some better quality pics!

Great to meet so many TVR-heads in the flesh today. Apart from the usual Sunday drivers it was a very decent run, only got it slightly sideways once. Didn't get too many choreographed photos, was more about the fun of driving in belting weather. A couple below though. Glad to see folks driving from as far away as North London and Hove to join in. We'll have to make it a regular event.
