[ara2312]

[LukeBird]

Aaaah right!
Well breakfast is sorted then! Should be a good run with the weather looking the way it is!

Have posted this in the Elise forum to see if there is any more interest - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

I think they will be ok with us at that time - how about meet form 7.30 for an 8 departure?

bloody cold at the moment (out on our blandford building site that is...) at 730.... barely light and wondering if there may be proper frost by sunday.... just thoughts... would later 8ish start be better?

[ara2312]

Good point about the cold - guess if we get to porsche for 8 we can see then - not worth taking any risks if it is frosty

[LukeBird]

Just came back in now, bloody freezing out there!!
Maybe 8 is a bit better
Hopefully the cold will keep people off the roads and in their warm houses

Looks like I may not be able to make this now

Have fun guys!!

OK; I have some juggling to do, as my wife is very keen to go down to Seatown/Charmouth for some fossiling tomorrow so I've promised I'll take her.

So what exactly is the plan? 08:00 at the Porsche dealer at Parley (think that I can find it - went for a test drive there a while back).

Then off to zig zag etc. What time do we expect to arrive? I'll probably need to head straight back rather than break my fast with you guys.

Mind you, I'll then have another lovely drive down to Seatown. Where, by the way, there is a great pub, great views and a big car-park.

I may be there after all

Yes 8am at Porsche Centre Bournemouth!

Dont think we will be too late back - wont take us an hour to get to zigzag and the airfield - and then an hour or so taking the scenic route back, for those who don't know where the porsche centre is see:

Why aren't you out with the Wessex branch of the MX5OC tomorrow? You could have a nice roast lunch followed by a cream tea..... If our 5 wasn't awaiting MOT and tax that was where my wife wanted to go.... Damned lucky escape....

Hi, just seen the thread. Might come along tomorrow if I get up early enough. If not, some other time...

[LukeBird]

The cars brimmed and waiting to go
See you in the morning then chaps
Looks like it'll be a good one.
Lee, pass the airport on your left, parley crossroads turn left, few miles down there you can't miss it.

Good to see you chaps out this morning!
Glad I could keep up, some of the way!
The cars sounded glorious when you blasted past me on the dual carriageway
Anyhow, should do it again soon if the weather's good!

Luke

Oh and over the 110 odd miles we did I got 32.6mpg

Yeah, nice one Luke. Good to meet you all, and a fine drive - if somewhat cold for the fingers.

32.6? I think that the decimal place needs to be moved back for me.....

And commitments allowing (that's NOT the band) I'd be up for another run.

Hey Simon, if you get free tickets to the museum you'll always have a place to get rid of them

He he it was only up to that as I was driving like a coffin-dodger on the way back! Was about 27/28 when I was thrashing it.
Tesco must love me!
Take it easy and hopefully have a run again soon
Oh and top car!

[rulesthebends]

Cheers guys for an awesome run this morning! Fine cars, fine weather and good to be in the company of like-minded petrolheads!

Looking forward to getting out again soon (maybe even fitting in a spot of breakfast?!)

See you all soon

Cheers guys
Si

Hi guys, enjoyed the run this morning and it was good to meet you. I'll look forward to the next time. I was impressed at how well the "Clio sorry!" managed to keep up - good work that man...
