Just wondering who there is about this area ????

there is

Hoover33 (that is I)...... red S2
Bugsy..................... green S3 (never seen it)
PeterM.................... black S2

S3DaveP.... I assume is localish as he has spotted my car.

I wonder if DavePs car is the green one I went screaming past in the summer on the A1, we both came of at Letchworth....

I have had reports of another Red S in Knebworth, but i have not seen it, so either it is a phantom one or I doesn't get out much.

I have seen a bright metalic blue one parked up in welwyn Garden City, and I assume it the same one I have seen on Mardley Hill (Welwyn area).

Anyone laying claim to these cars, or anyone else want to own up to be in the area.

Never know I might get of my backside and arrange a mini local meet.

Not bad for such a small area, there was a geen S3C for sale in Hatfield last year as well

BRG S3 quite often around Hertford as my dear mother lives there and still has most of my stuff in her house, although currently working up in sunny lincolnshire.

Hi Herts S's,
I live in Stevenage and have a white S3 with a blue roof, (thats rarely on the car)i have had it about 4 years.
It will be off to Offord Motor co for its MOT soon, i use it mainly in the summer but its taxed all year so if i get a nice day in the winter i can get out for run.
Do you guys go the the herts meet? i have never been and am not sure where it is.

Hi all,

There is a grey (dirty?) S in Letchworth, I saw it at the Leisure centre recently. I would not leave mine in Morrisons car park, all those trolleys too close for comfort!

I have also seen the elusive Red S near knebworth, but only once.

I use my car all year, weather permitting, so let me know if you guys want to meet, I'll be happy to join you. Took it out for a run yesterday, first time in 3 weeks, can't beat it.
I also trekked down to Harpenden last month, but there was no one else there

The red one can't be that elusive if he's used up all his miles this year.

I was thinking seems strange to have the meet in Harpenden when most S's are over this way.....just a thought.
It was previously held at wheathampstead, i think i read that in an old issue of sprint.
I think its a good idea to have a meet and have all the cars together in one place.
There was a bronze S2 for sale in Welwyn Garden a couple of years ago,i had not been on the road for some time but i have never seen it since.

Dave I think it used to be held at the Crooked Chimney on the Wheathamstead Road.

Sounds good to me but you young bucks may prefer the Sun at Lemsford, I'm up for either

Not a problem if you have sorted out your ride height.
I have tested it out on these bumps personally.

But Don't mind the C/C anyway
