just wondered... Saw a sweet moondust saff today and always see loads of RST's about.

Loads of modded festas as well.

Gotta be someone local lurking about on here....

 

I lived there once mate about 32years ago
Not too far away in Basingstoke these days, only take 5mins in mine.
Rod

 

used to work there till jan this year, offen swing in if in the area.

 

haha, excellent!
Rod, I saw your vid this morning as it happens! 5 mins! lol.. I ALWAYS get stuck behind bloody lorries on that road ALWAYS
Where bouts did you live?
Nice one Furry, I saw a red escos a couple of weeks ago bloody going for it along a bit of DC wasn't you was it?


A few more peeps and we'll have enough for some local meets...

 

I am buddy! as is Alex on here too, I don't think I've seen your car before though?I normally run around in this

there's a few cossies and loads of rally boys locally, Newbury is a "Rallytown"

 

me me .... well Thatcham anyway.

I do have a ford but it's only a focus

andyescos, I've seen your transit around and often wondered if there would be a similarly coloured GT40 on a trailer somewhere.

Martyn

 

I live there too...

as andy says

But my RS isnt on the road and will soon be sold

 

ah yes, damn Ford copied me back in the 60's on there Le mans cars, there'll be a mk2 in these colours soon though.
I'm in Thatcham too, your's aint the black Focus on the Moors is it?

 

No, just a standard estate. I live by the Henwick sports field and get my kicks riding my Ninja, in green of course

Martyn

 

Im not that far away from Newbury!! Im just outside of Reading in Lower Earley!

 

Henwick field, you don't know my mate Mikey do ya? he's into his rallying and bikes?
There's also Danny in Thatcham who's just bought a V8 sierra, he's been into cars for years,he sometimes comes on here, I believe you know him Maria?
And Adam who has an Escos and Focus RS.Jammy git!

 

i do indeedy! i was cheif bridesmaid at his wedding!

 

No mate, I've only lived here for 8 years. Seems like I don't know anybody Although saying that there are a couple of people round the corner from me who have had a few MK1's ecsorts and the odd early cortina thrown in for good measure. One of them is well into his 50's american cars as well. Don't actually 'know' them though.

I am sure I'd remember a V8 Sierra if I saw / heard it.

Maybe we can get a Thatcham group together for the next PF meet in Arborfield ???

Martyn

 

Good idea Martyn, we can show all the other groups theres more than a few of us in Berkshire

 

Mari in a bridesmaid dress.....hhmmmmmmm now there a thought for a monday morning

 

Yeah I am normally cruising about in my fiesta runabout, I'll keep an eye out for the gulf tranny!

I'm actually in hermitage so thatcham is probably actually closer to me than Newbury...
We'll have to have a convoy to the next Reading meet or something.

Also have a mate, Allan with a black saff..he's had his a lot longer so you've probably seen him about a bit.

Cheers,
Luke.

 

My mate Rob lives in Hermitage, he has a big bodykitted dark red Fiesta,works at Halfords.Allan/Black Saff, I think I went to Santa Pod with him a few months ago?
Maria, Yeh, Danny mentioned you , I'm going to see him this week so I'll get him to dig out the wedding pics!

 

im not a million miles away either ... and would love to see rod do the basingstoke to newbury road in 5 mins more like 30 mins

 

Originally from Basingstoke until a few months ago but not any more. Family still live there though. Could never find any ford nuts when I was there, on here, now there seems to be a few.

 

Basingstokes got loads apparently! there's a guy who's got a G3 or something my bruv keeps telling me, And my mate Andy with his white saff on black wheels with a cage.

 

Ahh, I know Rob..he was a few years below me at school.

Better get a local Newbury/Thatcham/Basingstoke meet sorted out then hadn't we?

 

My first House after I married in Redfield Court , just off the A4, opposite Hambridge Lane. Almost new when I moved in probably would not recognise the area now.
Cheers Rod

 

Thats on a good day, terrible road these days , much better 30years ago in my Cooper 'S'
Rod

 

or go to the one in berkshire

 

Used to live in Craven Road, then moved to St Marys Road

All about 10 years ago now while I worked in Thatcham. Still have plenty mates down there whom I visit occasionally for a session

 

Next time your down Rus!!!!


Give us a shout!

Alex

 

Will do Alex

 

ah, a pf meet in Liquids!and you mention Hambridge Rd, anyone know Dickie and his crew down at Brookwood motor co?(home of all things rallying,)Hambridge road ind estate is the best place ever for testing rally cars!I once went 120 down there in an Escort WRC car!

 

Now theres a good idea Andy!!!

Alex
