Normally on nights or have something else on when the meets are.
Plus I don't agree with paying to join an rsoc local group having paid for rsoc full membership. Nothing bad to do with the people though, like I said the ones I've spoken to before are top.

Full membership is Ł35 a year or Ł80 for 3 years. http://rsownersclub.co.uk/

Local group is Ł15 a year on top. Some are free..but these are normally the much larger groups. Nth Lincs is only small so charge a subscription.

80's car..80's style.
They look ok on that one. There was a topic only a week or 2 ago I replied on with some pics. Do a search on my profile and you'll find it with other examples.

It's your car tho mate. If you like them, get them. Doesn't matter what others opinions are on something like this. You're not doing a major body change so is an easy fix if it doesn't look right.

May possibly have problems with water getting in if you leave them on at the minute..altho it's not a running car yet so wouldn't matter in the short-term.
