Hopefully a few more people who are local'ish should be down as well. I think everyones been cursed so far this year with broken bits, thefts and engine failures

If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all

I will be there, prob not with the car yet though - next month (cross fingers).

Met a friend last night, got talking about the meets and he said he went to the first snowed under meet with a couple of friends of his (450bhp 2dr and an Impreza).

Told him I would get in touch and arrange for them to come along next meet, so should have between 1 and 3 more folks there

I take it they either didnt come in or were shy. There should also be a few old skool cars coming from over Yateley way ...thats if they can find a decent valeting company to clean them before hand

Anyone else coming? Nige, Gavin, Craig, Kev, Pete?

Looks like a cheap first round for me

Nigel, bring the S1 out m8, you know it makes sense

Rob, if you get stuck or think you might get stuck then either give me or Greg a call. I can PM you the number if it helps at all?

Ok thanks guys. I will give frog a ring nearer the time. I had a bit of good and bad luck bought a bottom end for Ł100 but turns out the gudgen pins were knackered on the pistons so forked out Ł300 on a new set of mahle pistons I rang the bloke and had a go at him so he is taking it back and giving me a well nice polished charge carrier and 1 16 inch mondeo wheel with tyre so i have a full set of 5 nice.,... Hopefully get her back monday/tuesday. I dont get on net much but should next week as boss is off.

LOL. Muppet. Cheers for the bumper and spoiler btw! The spoilers on but.... may not be in the S2 for meet on 30th as I'm booked in for paintwork when he gets the chance over the next couple of weeks....

Sorry Frog M8 - deleted your PM and forgot your name! Tried with the discount on those parts m8 and the bastids don't let us have one on the older bits! I was also asking for a set of 16" 7 spokes they still do and no joy on them either.. although they're only about Ł96 each anyway....

No worries, I called for standard prices, even taking you discount off, I can get 'em cheaper elsewhere... Tell you more at the meet if you want.
Thanks for trying anyway.
