Call to all South African Members

[man0war]

This is just a call to all you South Africans out there. Any of you have any interesting stories to tell share. I would like to see if there is any interest in doing a get together for South African members of Piston Heads, perhaps a day at Zwartkops, Wesbank, or the likes. A place where we can get together in a safe environment and just have fun with our cars. A way to show off our pride and joy, have a , and talk motors for bit. No , no traps, just fun.

Hi Jan

From a look at the membership list (filtered by country) there are 64 SA PHers.

They may not have noticed the new section at the bottom of the page. Maybe some e-mails to let them know it's there ?

Good luck with getting a SA PH Day going

It think half the population on the North Shore of Auckland is South African

Go the All Blacks

[man0war]

Will do the email thing. I was hoping that ppl would spot it and just reply, guess I was just being lazy. That's what I got for being lazy ...... nothing

[ViperMad]

Yeah sounds good ou maat, maar een probleem: ek is in die UK

When I reach SA shores again there is no doubt I will attend, stuur maar groete aan al die PH'ers in SA

Lekker Bly en Kind Regards

ViperMad

PS: Drop a gear and Gooi!!!

Hi guys. I'm not South African, but I spent last week in Strand just west of Cape Town (got off the plane at 6:00 am local time :sleepy, and I just wanted to say what a beautiful country you live in and what a great place CT is.

[man0war]

Viper, I'll be looking out for you when you return. You best join us and get this donnerse thing going.

[man0war]

Glad to see we still have some visitors here. A bit on the cold side in SA at the moment, and mostly so in Cape Town. I visit Strand on a regular basis, and was there over the weekend. Let me know next time you coming to Sa, and erhaps get together for a beer or 2.

Howzit man... Good to hear from a fellow South African PH'er.

great, so now we have a total of 4 ppl so far. Need more, need more ..... It only becomes viable from a cost perspective if we have between 10 an 15 ppl. Patience is required. I have emailed all that South Africans on PH, and hoping for a reasonable response.

No pics of your Porsche on your profile. Sounds like quite a monster you have there. I'm sure we'd all love to see some pics of it / her / him.

Look forward to arriving back in SA, organise a group/team or something and we'll all go on a rally of some sort, early start, light lunch then a nice open space to unleash our cars and show off each others wheels, end then ofcourse in a pub afterwards lol

Take care ou maat

One foot in S.A. 1 foot in U.K.

[lightningghost]

Sorry to hijack the thread, but not being bilingual, how do you guys just change language mid-sentence?? Surely the first few times for a couple of seconds, you're totally confused! I liked the sound of Afrikaans, by the way. Like a cool mix of German and Dutch, but didn't sound as nasty as either! Or maybe that was the accent...

Yes, but expensive!

Especially if you buy the authentic imported stuff.
