Mike, you can always park next to my "not quite so new" V90, they are of a similar heritage, after all...

Two words you wouldn't use to describe my 850 are shiny and new. It went off-roading in the fog to rescue a van that didn't bother slowing down for an icy 90 degree bend, and the 186,000 miles on the clock often confuses new service staff at the dealership when they see that the normal service sheets don't go anywhere near that high.
Though it has recently got a new Magic Tree.

Damn!!! Just checked the diary, and I can't make the 21st. My wife is going away with 48 school children on a field trip (she's braver than me) and I have to take her to the pick up point.
Saturday 20th is out too, I'm crawling about inside a steam boiler that day (actual paid work would you believe), so looks like I'll have to miss this meet.

I don't think I can make it either, I've got a meeting on Saturday evening and Sunday morning, shame as it's only a 150 mile 'round trip for me rather than the 340 miles 'round trip of Stoke. If I can make it I will try - all depends when the meeting finishes in the morning.....

Doesn't look like it. I have to drive Marion to load the kids at 11.30 in wildest Norfolk, so getting from there to Oxford for the meet at that time is most unlikely, plus I would have teenage daughter to look after as well, and she hates the 240 so much that she almost refuses to ride in it, and hides in the footwells if we pass any of the er, "friends" if I pick her up from school in it!

At least there is room in them for her to hide.. Not in some new fangled cars...!

Hi,

Given we have 2 topics on this we should cut one and use the other as the main topic for the meet?
Linky....

And make minds up on which pub it is?
