Well first of all thank you to all who attended this meet and made it the success that it was. The weather was fantastic couldn’t have been better considering how it had been.
There were 9 cars in total and each one looking stunning with a bunch of not bad looking smiley happy probe owners too!

 

Rob001Well mark (ice), met me at rob's house to convoy down when we got close we caught up dave (bart69) now when i say we i mean mark and me. God knows where rob in his 24v had got to? Couldn’t keep up with a couple of 16v, maybe a fuel stop had been called for. Anyway, we were the first to arrive. Then djwoz came walking along (was a good night apparently) so his g/f had the car which did make an appearance as you will see from the photos.

Then.. what’s that rumbling? Ahhh its nigel and jackie in their fine looking black probe. Sounded wickid nige. Then the kikkit clan arrived. They brought two probes. kikkit's car had the fuel flap left open but it doesn’t stop there! the fuel screw top was hanging out too! Was that a quick get away from the garage mark??

We decided to just drive onto the front and go to the ocean plaza as there was more parking (thanks djwoz for your help with that) . Just as we set off paul16v arrived in the nick of time to see which way we went so there’s the nine cars

Well we parked up and yup a fantastic looking line up but hang on theres two missing!!! we had lost the kikkit clan!!! just as nige(bulldog) goes off to find them they go sailing past the turning we all jump up and wave madly but nope they were not looking. Then the yellow probe was spotted through the trees on the top road!! Anyway nige finds them and leads them back.
