Northants Run on 14/08/2011 from Dove House Motor Co

[mattdaniels]

The gf saw a few suspects out around Sixfields earlier (she was in her orange Disco G4).

I was in the garden this afternoon and certainly heard quite a lot of enthusiastic engine noises!

Hope all went well.

Made the start just as you all left and without a co-driver or following would have struggled to make the route so nipped home and picked up Mrs TT - Got to Sywell only to be told you had all left 10 mins before - we headed over to Dove House and you'd all gone.

Good fun chasing you though on a private hoon all of my own!

Thanks to Dove House for the bacon butty and Burgers and tea.

I don't think they were anything to do with the Dovehouse meet, looked more like max power boys to me when we went past

Thanks to Dove House for a great event and generously saving us from making breakfast and lunch for the family today! About 40-odd cars took part. The stand-out ones were obviously these two hyper-cars.

Haha I did a spot of that too - apologies to the Z4 Cab and MR2 following me thinking I knew where I was going! Picked up the route again at Brixworth, shortly afterwards met the same car I'd been with earlier which was joining a roundabout from another direction, so at least it wasn't just me that went wrong!

Thanks again to Dove House for being excellent hosts. You even sorted the weather for us too.

What were you in? She saw a few Ferraris and Porsches. On the A43 roundabout just coming past Sixfields. Someone flashed and waved at her.

Cheers for organising the run and the sarnies. I pulled out at Sywell, but still had an enjoyable morning in the sun

[Seeker UK]

A fun day, even if I did feel a bit conspicuous in the A4.

Thanks to Dove House for organising (and the food).

Hopefully, it'll be less than 5 years until the next one and I might have something a bit more suitable next time.

[sidned]

What a great day! Thanks Dovehouse for the wonderful hospitality. Great route and good food! Same time next month?

Oh dear. Poor people? There was probably a 2-For-1 on Wifebeater at TGI's or something.

Thanks to Dove House for an enjoyable day, special thanks to Harvey for his time with me on the 997 turbo...now I have to decide if I want to keep my licence.
Anyone want a 996 c4?

My photos look a bit crap now :/ Although I'm not a car photographer so it's OK

Had a great time, thank you for the hospitality. I felt like a little kid sitting in the F1 and was VERY tempted by the finance on the Exige.

Is that the dark (black?) 997 turbo they have in stock ?

Saw it on Friday. Looked great in the showroom. I'm already in the dog house for going for the Spider not the 997. Please buy it and "come and show me what I could have won"

They look pretty good to me - and you even managed to make my Caterham look clean and shiny
