I was woundering if there is a place in the nottingham area where everyone gets together?
If not I was wondering if anyone would like to start with me, I'm from a place called worksop, so if you are interested please do let me know :) , I think it would be great for use to get together show our cars off and have a good old chat :)

Any idea as to dates, chaps...? ;)

Just make sure that it avoids this, please...! (Once we have a fixed date, of course!) :cool:

I think a Nottingham meet is a really good idea, by the way... -- especially if we can find somewhere to eat, and then convoy to... -- as it's so near the motorway network: and should therefore attract a few far-flung FIAT fanatics...! (y)

PS: Just read this back, and realized that it sounds a bit 'schoolmaster-ish'. Sorry for that. More than happy to step back, and let you (both?) organize something... -- but please feel free to yell if you need any help/support...! :slayer:

It's absolutely filthy.... :cry:

It's been sat outside, for the last three weeks (whilst I've been lying on my death-bed...), gathering dust from the gritters, and goodness-knows-what from the local farmers: and looks like it's been coated in an even layer of mud.... :eek:

Good news is: it started on the first turn of the key, this afternoon; and will be getting the full wash-and-wax treatment in the next week or so... -- once I've shaken off this awful bug.... However, I am a lot, lot better than I was... -- so thank you for asking...! (y)

Good luck with getting the door sorted...! I've got to put new check-straps on both of my fronts (as well as a new seal on the driver's side...) -- and am not looking forward to it one bit.... :mad:

Re: nottingham get together

Show case cark park sounds a good idea, and regards to the dates I will work something out or if anyone has any ideas just pop in a reply, but either a Sunday or Monday is the best for me because I work nights from Tuesday to Saturday
 
Re: nottingham get together

Just a quick pointer.
if anyone is looking for a car for a meet in Nottingham,I saw a neat looking Cinq sporting for sale on Castle Boulevard,on Monday.
Opposite Mr.Tyre.
£295.

Worth buying and selling on ebay for £550 me thinks.


RALPH.

Sunday was a popular choice for the first meet-up; and, with the clocks having gone forward, lunch, followed by a drive to somewhere scenic, for photos, should also work.... Thanks for doing this -- much appreciated...! (y)

I'm thinking sometime may, and how far do you think the convoy should go? Could always convoy to Matlock for fish and chips lmao

if it's May, probably best to make it the middle of the month: as it looks like the Prodrive meet might be the first weekend in June (and Modified Nationals is at Peterborough, 24-26 May...); not forgetting that Brooklands is at the beginning of May.... :rolleyes:

As I remember (although it's a long time since I've been...), Matlock's about 20-odd miles away from Nottingham? Probably a bit far for people who've already had to drive a distance to get there... -- although fish and chips sounds very tempting...! Maybe, once a date and meeting point has been set up, we can see how far people are willing to travel for a photo-shoot.... :idea:

PS: benny279 -- how long did it take to get to Draycote, from Coventry (about 15 miles away, I think...)? :confused:
