I think we have 5 cars on the stand

Anyone else think they’d like to join us?

johnthesparky UVA fugitive
Sophers Bmw E21
MiataMark MX5 [dependant on a) learning to weld & b) doing the welding]
The Doctor
bstardchild Lotus Carlton

Unfortunately take me off the list (unless you want a '07 Alfa on the stand), 'a' and 'b' just aijn't happening :-(

Umm I think I definitely need an imaginary car place, Alfa is now being uncooperative so could be an '04 Discovery useful if anybody gets stuck though! and it's got a RR sticker in the back window (much to my wife's disgust, it's her car).

[johnthesparky]

We can imaginery Park it next to the P38

[bstardchild]

If it’s a series II discovery surely it falls in as a late registered example if a 1998 model?

If it’s a series III that was launched in 2004 then it would be too new

It's a D2 facelift so really categorises as a 2003, although it can trace it's roots back to the early Range Rover same chassis.

At least I won't get any problems with people opening doors into the side!

Saturday daytime is normally campsite vehicle modifications - I've seen complete re-sprays done and all sorts of mechanical changes

Saturday evening is the tat auction - DO NOT MISS IT

Do we have a time for the tat auction? I’m planning to arrive Saturday early evening but want tent up and be chilling in advance of auction. Cheers

Somewhere around 6.30 - 7.30

There is still some space on the club stand if anyone wants to park with us.

[blackpopracing]

I have no friends - does that count?

If you want to park with us, that’s the only qualification*..... that or the ability to lie during the interview





*the management of the Gathering stipulate various other rules, and as we have and don’t want any friends we don’t want to talk to them and find out what they are, but it’ll be something about pre-95 unless so interesting that the visitors will explode on catching site of said vehicle..... I think that caveat was included just for you

Sorry I am a bit late to the party, would it be possible to grab a spot with Toyota Soarer? Thanks

Yep, that’s fine.

Are you camping? As I won’t be able to post a pass to you, if not message me and we can sort something

[tomglt]

I'm camping Friday and Saturday, it might well be the only soarer there so come find me or ill pop over and see you

[discostew38]

I'm still looking for friends with benefits (or a stand with space?)
I'm doing the hill in the morning so it would only be the afternoon
Not a problem if I'm to late to the party
il just park it in the main car park

We still have space, but don’t think I could post the pass in time, are you camping?

Actually could give you a pass in the morning, in the paddock if bot

[johnthesparky]

We have 10 passes, and this is the stand currently

1) johnthesparky
2) Sophers
3) The Doctor
4) bstardchild
5) blackpopracing
6) discostew38
7) tomglt (sorry forgot to include you)


So still a bit of room

We also have 3 virtual passes, but they are all taken by georgeb, @quatermass and MiataMark

[The Doctor]

I thought our emperor was coming?

In a modern car I believe, the organisers were worried about having multiple hood scoops in close proximity and therefore the number of pregnancies that would ensue.......

[johnthesparky]

He could maybe do something like this though..... that’s actually not a Ferrari!!! I’m sure everyone could bejust as easily fooled at the Gathering
