Motorshow convoy (well a small one)

[basher]

Anyone heading up to Brum from Kent/London/Essex on Sunday. We have the startings of a convoy from the Dartford Tunnel (Kent side of course) heading up to the NEC. Meeting between 0830 and 0900....more the merrier...at the moment we have 3 cerbs, a porker and a 355....

[olly]

Going M25/M40 if that makes a difference to people.....

[BLUETHUNDER]

[Exocet]

3 Cerbs, 355, 360, Skyline, Chimp, 911,
NSX and a Polo !!

We can have our own little motorshow in the car park.

[BLUETHUNDER]

Oh s**t just remebred cant bring the tvr its due to go in today to have a straight through exhaust fitted can i bring my xjs instead its a nice one and not one of your run of the mill crap boxes

[olly]

Hmmmm......

Well, it's still British, and it's got a roof, so that makes it a bit like a Cerb....

Yeah - why not ! Just make sure you give one of us your mobile number in case we loose you anywhere !

See you at 8:30-9:00.....

[BLUETHUNDER]

Oi cheeky the jags good for 160mph

[Pinkney]

I think I might have seen you guys - just as you were parking up. Two cerbs, a 355 and white skyline with an 'interesting' exhaust note. Must have been about midday. Unfortunately not in the cerb, but a dark blue M5.

Err...so you did manage to lose the 160mph Jag

[rich1231]

Did you guys manage to take advantage of the empty M6 on the way back.... Talking of 160 with the roof down...

[basher]

Jag never turned up...or maybe it did and left us all for dead - not sure !! Anyway we came home M42 M40 - doh...car park and numpty driver city..(why does everyone sit in the outside lane constantly braking when you can do over ... in the middle lane and inside lane cos no one is there !!!) Made the most of the weather though with the roof off the whole way up...

How badly scratched is the car ???

[rich1231]

Not badly scratched, but peed me off. Took 10 mins to remove... almost as if someone with a ring on had run their hand down the side of the car....
Muppets.

take a look at www.mharle.com/images/robin2.jpg to see what hampered my progress on the M1, it was doing 50-60 in the fast lane (i kid you not).

No wonder it hampered you - those things can really corner well - and you never know he might have had a V8 rover lump in the back.....wheelie city..

[rich1231]

I know it entertained a few other road users that passed us on the inside. I really dont think he meant to go into the fast lane. I think he made a wrong turn. The look of fear on his face when he finally pulled over was fantastic.
