Mini meet Leicester area Saturday March 3rd?

devonutopia · 07-02-2007, 15:35

Anyone?

I'll be in a vauxhall corsa, but no reason why I should be unwelcome.

I'll be up in the Midlands on this weekend, so would be nice to meet up with some Briskodians.

I propose a swift half of ale at the Hope & Anchor at Syston, East of Leicester, say 8pm onwards? Maybe a meal too? Then maybe a little drive out - just bear in mind I'll be in an "economy" motor.

Add your name

1) Jason

EDIT Date changed due to Allards postponing me.

WW_VRS · 07-02-2007, 15:45

Hmm not sure if I can make it that far & that early, depends a bit on SWMBO. I need to trial the car though. Will let you know a bit closer to the time, perhaps drop me a PM with your mobile?

But we went to the same pub last time

Shame the mongrel will not be present, but she's heading for better things.

Shaun - wouldn't mind a spin out in the beezer.

Hmmm, food for thought, but to be honest - I need to spend time with the relations on this stint, and I will only be in a poxy vauxhall corsa.

But Jason that would be rather

knowing what you drive day to day - but then again mine is a bit of a mong with all my parts

Don't be like that. I expect with the 100kg weight saving, your car will be as quick as mine is currently. Will be decent for a pd100 I'm sure.

I just want to compare it to how my old pd100 was with its 154bhp remap.

maxcars1 · 11-02-2007, 20:16

Im pleased with it but wished id have gone hybrid in the first place. That would have seen me with a reliable 200 ish with my botom end and all th eother engine mods.

gazjones · 14-02-2007, 23:22

is this between newark and leicester? not to far from me will pop along i think

It's only just East of Leicester - Kind of one of the outer most suburbs. Just off the A47 IIRC.

maxcars1 · 18-02-2007, 20:59

Jason is this still going ahead?

devonutopia · 18-02-2007, 22:02

Certainly is.

I will say 7.30 though, just so I can at least grab some food. They do a really huge steak for about a tenner, with all the trimmings, and it's usually a decent cut of meat too.

This is where the pub is.

Hope & Anchor - Syston* Leicestershire

devonutopia · 23-02-2007, 15:54

Sorry guys. Allard have rung me to postpone the job by 7 days, so I'm afraid this meet is off. Should still be OK for the following Saturday though, which I believe is the 3rd March. I'll PM everyone to clarify this.

bryand · 23-02-2007, 16:55

Fine. Does that mean you'll be bringing the Allarded mongrel on the 3rd?

Nope - will be the corsa again sadly.... It just means the whole thing is postponed by 7 days.

maxcars1 · 23-02-2007, 18:36

Yep up for that Jason thanks for the PM

skodadan · 26-02-2007, 19:35

Im up for 3rd march.

devonutopia · 02-03-2007, 12:01

This is definitely on now! 7.30 @ The Hope and Anchor and there will be food. I reckon I will go with their mixed grill again! yum!

Not sure what car I will be in, but I will be there for 7.30.

maxcars1 · 02-03-2007, 15:10

See you there

devonutopia · 02-03-2007, 15:12

Oh, and I'll make sure I have a 250ml sample bottle of Millers for you, mr Maxcars.

maxcars1 · 02-03-2007, 18:26

Forgot about that - Might leave my car nearly empty for a blast with some Millers for the home run

51octytdi · 02-03-2007, 19:25

I'm definitely tempted, but I don't know if I'll be able to make it. I'll try my best!
