You got a courtesy car, I'd be walking.

 

[Beachbum]

I find a gag and handcuffs work a treat.

After a while you have to take them off and its just delaying the start
A .22 to the back of the head is more permanent

I'm escalated to a 90% sure, sans reluctant passenger.

Well the intent to come was there but the weather here put me off. Heavens opened just before was going to set off! Had my annual bath last night and everything!

Maybe next time.

 

[Orchardbike]

Hopefully there’ll be a Magma in the bunch next time! 9not to mention better weather

).

Great to meet everyone.

Great to meet everyone.

Likewise, it was great to meet fellow Emira owners and their cars. Hopefully Orchardbike will have his back in time for the next gathering!

Great British weather !

 

[tankski]

Aye, it was lovely meeting everyone. Had a great time chatting. Now who will be checking their car for paint blisters over the next few days? Maybe Lotus CC can order in better weather for next time.

Nice to see everyone there today. Weather was not the best and got even wetter later, so about normal for a British summer. But it was worth the trip to meet everyone.

We'll do it again - hopefully @Orchardbike and everyone else has their cars back by then.

My pics - apologies I forgot to take a picture of the Volvo:

Who's was the 2nd Yellow Emira(Right one in the pics) ? By the time I got out there it had already gone
Great meeting everyone, will order better weather for the next occasion.

Many months ago, I joked with @Orchardbike that when he got his car back, we should try to organise a meet. I did not realise how long we would have to wait
Having seen how many Emira's some of the China runs have managed to get together, I thought we could aim for somewhere in Central England and try and get as many of us together as possible

To that end, I would like to suggest meeting up sometime late June, or Late July. Unfortunately I am not available early/mid July.
Location to be agreed, but initial thoughts are Milton Keynes. It has fairly decent access to it from all directions and is moderately central. If people have other suggestions, I am open to hearing them.

Its all very tentative at the moment, more about finding out who would be interested, what dates they would be available and if the MK location works
If you are interested, stick your name below with the dates you can do.

Sounds like a great idea! I'm up for it but July and August quite busy with holidays and other commitments. So just let me know where and when and I'll try to make it.

 

[Orchardbike]

I was a bit bothered that no one wanted to look at my Volvo!

That’d be me! I had to run off a bit early which is a shame.
