Volvo, Saab, Audi? How are any of these anything to be ashamed of then?

Medic-one, unless I have an insatiable need for cigars and classical music that morning, I shall be taking the Pug instead of the XJR.

And who knows, you might feel like a cigar that morning after all....

I believe you were recently at the Woodman meet, a lovely example of the car. I think out of your 2 options your pug would more than suffice!

Yep, that was me. Like most of my cars it's a love/hate relationship.

I went on one of the Kent Runs last year in the Jag, which although kept up easily, the lack of engine braking with the auto box meant I was constantly on the brake pedal when in convoy. I'm thinking the 205 will need to be thrashed a bit more to keep up and can be slowed/balanced on the throttle, so should be much more fun.

I'm up for the very early group if possible.

Looks like it should be a good run! You can stick me down for the early group as well.

Well the green monster will be joining you at the half way, ish, point as I live that way, so as soon as I get the details through I will be able to decide on the time etc.

Still dont see many RED ITALIAN cars on the list though, jeez they must be scared of the Yank V8 muscle !!!!!!! and noise !!!!!

My Apologies

Without conceding that this run is a logistical nightmare, I would like to apologise for the slow progress as of late, which, unfortunately, is a direct result of my workload at the moment. Please rest assured that there will be TomTom files sent out to everyone who's signed up for this run by Thursday 17th May, although it's possible they will be with you tonight. Additionally, for those who may have asked questions which have gone un-answered at kentrun07@hotmail.com, I apologise, I haven't been through the several hundred e-mails in there waiting for me yet. I will try my best to answer every single one this week!

Once the e-mails are dealt with and the TomTom files have been sent I will try to get the start times and groupings planned.

My thanks again for your patience!


Jay
