Mosler Visit

[iluvmercs]

I had a fantastic day, as I'm sure you did as well!

A superb turn out! The best I have seen for a PHEA meet, since I started my PH life!

Thank you Ian for organising an excellent day out, and thanks to Breckland for letting us nose around the place. An amazing array of new cars and faces, and it was just a shame I didn't get to meet you all!

Thanks again for the lift between the pub and the factory, Ian.
Harley, you missed my Mum by and 10 minutes or so, but I'm sure you'll get the chance to see the RR Sport at another meet

My I've uploaded my photos from the day HERE.
Sorry the photos are a bit orderless! Seems to be the way Photobucket loads them!
If you have any trouble viewing them, please let me know!
Also, I only managed to load up one video (one of crisp500 leaving in his Chim 500

Oh and on my way home, we followed this Defender....a superb two fingers at the anti-4x4 brigade!


See you all for next month's run to the coast!

Another vote of thanks to Ian for a great day out - excellent pub & interesting to have a nose around Mosler / Breckland.

Really good to put faces to logins as well...

I'm still working through my pics, (really annoyingly I had a bit of lint on my DSLR sensor, so I'm having to remove that from each image!) so an album of them should be up online tonight...

Thanks to all who attended yesterday, I hope you all had a good day. I think I managed to get to speak to most of you during the day at some point, but if I missed anyone then sorry. It was great to see such a wide selection of cars, and I know that the guys at Mosler really appreciated having a look over them all.

I,m sorry that the lunch appeared to come out in dribs and drabs, but I think it was worth the wait. I for one think that The Windmill did a very good job for us considering the size of our party.

Anyway, one event down so on with the planning of the next! Look out for details of our 'Holkham Hall raid' coming soon to a forum near you!

Here are a couple of my pics from yesterday.

Great piccys guys!

Anyone else have some pics to have a gander at?

Ah! sayerbloke! Nice to meet you and your brother yesterday! I didn't realise that was your PH name! It was probably mentioned, but my memory isn't the best

Good to see you all again and meet some new people, it was a fantastic day, the weather was good, a good turn out and some nice Machinery! Even another Porsche!

Good meeting you, too.

I think you met my brother first so he may not have mentioned it

A great afternoon indeed.

Fantastic day thank you Ian and everyone at Breckland for making it happen.

Surreal moment of the day, standing in a quiet market place in Swaffham and suddenly seeing and hearing a train of cars appear round the corner bringing the whole place to a grinding halt and then being sandwiched between the blue Cayman and yellow Ultima on the run to Dereham!

My inferiority complex has gone through the roof now and I need something with a lot more power. (and noise )

Thanks again

Nice to meet you Darren and everyone else I met.

Yes indeed, we must make a note to trash quiet market towns more often!

Ah, it was you! My passenger was looking back to take a photo of the convoy behind and commented on this 'imposter' in our midst... I said he could always Photoshop it out afterwards!

Sounds Like a plan!

[Ian V]

Believe me it could have been far worse!! There was a small market / car boot sale on that market place when I was heading for the pub before lunch.

Thank God they had all cleared up and gone !

Haha yes it was, I saw him look around to take the photo and was trying to work out whether I could move across the centre line to let him get a clean shot of the rest of the convoy.

Great day out guys good to meet up with everyone again ,good job Ian , the look on the locals face's as we drove through swaffham made me proud ........the sound of rumbling V8's was awsome

[tjdixon911]

Here's all the pictures taken, all on my phone so apologies if the quality is not good!

[gtr-gaz]

What a turn out! Ten times more people than the last visit there

Brilliantly organised by Ian (as usual) and the roast at the pub was superb.

[Ian V]

Thanks for the kind words Gary.

Planning is now well and truly underway for the 'Holkham Hall raid' for the end of May. I know that you will be in attendance as its one of your favorite areas.

Here's some of my pics.

The delay is due to me not cleaning the sensor before going on Sunday, so I have had to clone off various specs of dust from each photo...

I like these pics!




Looked like a fantastic day, wished we could have been there.


Whose is this car? I've fallen in love (with the car!)

Morning Hannah,

That's Colin & Jean Paris's beautiful C3 Corvette. I will convert you all to the benefits of Corvette's !!

I guess you got the problem of the elusive 'half nuts' sorted okay.
