Anyone fancy meeting up to arrive in convoy and then hopefully all park together ?

Rob has suggested the Skoda Dealer at Mustow Green DY10 4LG, its on a little roundabout coming into Kidderminster, junction of A448 and A450
8.30 to leave at 8.40 ?
Would like to Mike, but it's Sheri's turn to drive, so we''ll be going at a little more sedate speed, so we'll see you there.

Not too sure how many are planning on meeting at the Skoda garage (and can't be bothered to trawl back through the thread and try to work it out) so if you're running a little late and we go without you please don't be offended, we'll see you there thumbup


That's not to say I won't be late and you may all go without me!

Apologies, I started some bodywork repairs on the S, time has escaped me so I will try to park out of sight,at Shelsley, looking even more ropey than last weekend when the MOT tester had had a little fun along muddy lanes. Will try to blow the dust away en route. Cannot find the chamois leather. See ya all there in the sunshine!

Could be a good marketing opportunity for Skoda, TVR owners flocking to one of their dealerships!!
Quite fancy a Yeti myself, not sure I could handle the boring reliability though, nothing to do but clean and polish.

Bizarrely I spent an hour of my prep time today hitting the car with hammers of various sizes. Have to say I really didn't enjoy that and if I ever get my hands on the d*ck that used mastic to attach the rear lights I'd use the hammer on them too.

Still, all's well that ends well and I now have a pair of shiny ummm tinted new rear lights fitted...

Found a few interesting electrical gremlins along the way and didn't have time to sort them properly but hopefully they'll hold together until I do.

Don't think we'll make it to Strensham in time so I think we'll just meet people there..

By coincidence, when I changed the rear lights on mine there was no mastic sealing them on, but I did have a nice pond in the spare wheel well!

Bit of a frosty foggy start to the day at Shelsley.
Obviously the broken roof on many of the "S" that arrived was due to ice?
Pictures to show the guilty.
Unable to lower the tops?
But a little stroll up the hill, above the clouds the sun was baking hot.!

Good to see so many TVRs there, hope the breakfast was up to expectations.
