Hi Mark,

Yes I'm interested, where abouts and are you thinking meet only or meet and drive?

regards,

Paul

surely if you are going out in your lovely motor, you would sacrifice more than 20 miles surely? the car would only be finding her groove at that point?!

get out there man and DRIVE IT! :)

haha, OK I'll drive more than 20 miles.... My friend Aldo lives in Canary Wharf and drives a Porsche Speedster. Is he allowed to join? :D you suggest some locations. I sometimes meet at Battlers Green Farm in Radlett as they have a nice big open car park and good cafe for breakfast. Thinking 10am or 11am?

hi guys ,

Paul , i am going to try and meet up with you at J28 M25 , could pm me your mobile just in case

simon , if you get your windscreen done and want to meet up on route to J28 M25 , let me know .

look forward to seeing you all , for the first meet of the year

Will confirm tomorrow Steve....

Senninha
21-01-2011, 05:56 PM
Steve, PM with number sent, hope to see you there.

For anyone not familiar with the J28, some words of caution ....

- approaching from the south you will drive into roadworks with average speed cameras that are working
- road surface has been badly affected by recent cold weather so look out for large pot holes which have gone un-repaired as they plan to resurface the M25 when roadworks completed
- beware of large dark Volvos and last gen 5 series

- as you come off junction you will be almost going back on your self to get to the Brentwood exit.
- you then turn almost immediatly left into the services
- You should NSX's and owners waiting to greet you (unless you arrive first!)

I think we have the following so far for J28 ...

- NSX2000
- NSXGB
- Ollie
- Silver Surfer
- Duncan
- Senninha

Looking forward to the tunnels on route :D

Count me in for tomorrow's meet.

I've just started work for a company that makes helmet cams and in car cameras. I asked to borrow one for the meet and was given four to test! Would be good to get a little footage of multiple NSXs on the road. I live 100 yards from Chiswick Honda. Will be heading up the north circular/M1 any central Londoners care to meet up either at Chiswick Honda or en route? Mark?

I can finally get back on the forum, Happy New Year to all......

I'm going to try and roll along to this tomorrow...Sod's Law that a meet almost on my doorstep coincides with my NSX being off the road!!! Well it wouldn't have been but thats another story.....

I may have a NSX passenger ride tomorrow but if not I'll might pop over in my daily runner for a natter

Hi guys,

Andy (VTEC Direct) was meant to drop my car back this afternoon but a couple of parts haven't come in so I don't have my NSX :(

I'm happy to come in my 911 if that's allowed?? So sorry, but out of my hands, very upset

No worries Marky...Just an excuse to get another 'meet-up' arranged after this one. :)

Hi, all.

I was planning to attend this Mini meet but unfortunately, I have to put other projects including the service on another NSX at higher priority and thus, I have to miss this one…. Looks like I'm working over the weekend again...


What a shame as I wanted to discuss with some of you on the future service and schedule …


I probably need 36Hrs per day....

Hi Kaz

It's always good to see you, so sorry you can't make this, but hopefully you'll get to discuss things with lots of people at the NSXCB dinner on the 15th April.

I know what you mean about the 36 hour day, I've only got twelve thousand unread emails, only manged not to read about 100 this week! :eek:

Hope to see the photo's soon that Duncan was taking ... not sure if the 911 will be in them as it has been modded to use the James Bond cloaking technology ....;)

So nice to see the cars out this early in the year and to catch up on the winter upgrades, nice work Steve!

regards, Paul

Photos of mini meet [5 of 12]
The keen eyed will observe; pop-up and facelift targas and coupes; 3.0s, 3.2s, and supercharged engines; type S, type R[ish], BBS and standard wheels; type R[ish] interiors in cloth and in leather; quiet, not so quiet and quite noisy exhausts; and completely standard cars.
But which is which?

hi guys ,

good to see everyone on sunday morning , good turnout for a january meet , 2 things i discovered on sunday

1. some sort of euro / irish hoon would be well received and prob good fun ( judging by the germany trip last year )

2. Marky is just the man to organise it ( he could start a company and call it INVISIBLE TOURS r us )

thanks for the tour of Watford , Simon and Gary

look foward to seeing everyone at the dinner in April , if not before at a mini meet

Hey Steve,

I was so upset not to be able to join. Andy at VTEC Direct was meant to deliver my car back on Saturday afternoon but cancelled at last minute as he was still waiting for some parts to arrive. I was thinking about driving up in the Porsche but didn't think it would go down very well. I will be at the next meeting, promise. Looks like a very nice turnout. I have actually contacted Porsche Hatfield and they are happy to host a meeting, and provide refreshments! I will send details next week.
