What a turnout to the Crooked Billet!

IC · Oct 5th, 2003, 16:47

Thanks to all who came down to sunny Iver this afternoon - The meet was a great success with many travelling substantial distances to be with us. There were a great variety of vehicles including a S70R, three V70Rs, a T5-R, two 850R saloons, an 855 T5, an 854 T5, an S70 bi-fuel, an S60R, an S60, a V70 T5, a C70 T5 GT (this one is for sale - see the for sale section), two 440s and a partrige in a pear tree......hope I haven't missed anybody out!

I'm planning a session at Power Engineering in November - we need at least 15 cars............

Glad it went well.

Power Engineering day sounds good!

Anyone want to propose a date or is it down to them having an available Saturday?

Midweek would be better for me but I doubt that would be good for the majority of people;-)

See you all there.

A saterday would be good, as long as I was not supose to be working, well I may feel sick that day if so. I will email Phil the pictures soon so he can get them on the web.

Cheers Ryan

had an excellent day, managed to put alot more names to faces.

Unfortunatley my oil leak has got alot worse today (looks like oil return from turbo, instead of loose sump plug which i thought )so thats now a priorty on my list so doubt if i can make the rolling road :(

can't wait to see some of the pictures from today

Ps Iain what have you put mine as in the above list (its only a T-5 badged as a T-5R)

Hi, sorry to hear about your leak, I hope that you can get the problem resolved asp. Don't worry about the listing of your car, I put it down as a 854 T5. ;-)

I have sent Phil some pictures to put on his web site. I hope he has ADSL, as it may take some time to download the 25 pics!!!
It was definatly a great turn out, and I would look forward to a rolling road, see what my cars really made of???

Hi, a while ago I went to your webpage to have a look at your car - so I knew the specs ;-) Great to see that you are so enthusiastic!

I'd be up for a session on the rollers, it'd be intersting to find out how many horses are scaring me via the front wheels!
