Took a while to track this down on their website but here it is.
Saturday 30th November, starting at 11am.
Last year was a bit damp which scared off some of the Volvo lads and most of the Saab lads. Hopefully, the weather will be a bit nicer for a meet at one of the UKs most iconic petrolhead establishments.

[QUOTE=BoostWagon;664751]my excuse has just been paid, so i will be there :uglyhamme [ATTACH=CONFIG]23093[/ATTACH] Anyone from Sussex Coast drive up?[/QUOTE] Are you paying for 6 months or 12 months because it is normally 225 for a year not 6 months that you have .but I might be wrong lol.

Great day today, weather was dry, if a little nippy, was good to catch up with everyone, managed to get a few pics:
Simon (Deathrider) leaving for his long trek back:
Spotted this just down the road at a valeters:
Just some pictures I took before going. Apologies for being slightly less "with it" than normal.
I know that everyone else took photos and I'm going to wait and see what Else pops up, but here's mine for my photo album
Great meet today at the 'Ace Cafe' good to see Simon, Jim, Andy, Gavin and of course Kingsford along with the regular 'faces'
Some piccy's.....
just uploading pics. nice to see such a good show of cars of such a high standard.
Also nice to see Sarkey San's Mum and Dad pop along in their new car, a lovely low mileage V70 in a great colour.
Note the 'private plate' V70BS (does the BS stand for 'Big Sarkey ?)
Looks like a nice turn out for the volvos not many saabs then .weldone guys
Had a great day and meet up some old and new faces :)
Here a few of the photo`s I took.
Nothing like being flanked by SAABs
Another excellent meet guys. Got a little cold towards the end but I was impressed at the percentage of Volvos compared to Saabs. Nice seeing familiar faces and some new faces too. Great pics everyone. Mum and Dad have asked me to thank everyone for making them feel welcome and those that took the time to chat with Mum about the cameras/photography. Look forward to seeing the guys going to the Xmas do in 2 weeks time. Oh and Graham, BS on Dads plate stands for BOSS SARKEY ;p
Was certainly a great day out, nice to catch up with everyone and of course put some names to faces too. Great turn out of some cracking looking Volvo's too!! Special thanks to Merc85 (Gav) for running us there and back and of course helping out with the cooler really appreciated that!! Thanks to Santa, hope your feeling better. Cheers for letting me purchase the intercooler Graham I promise I'll take good care of it and keep it well cleaned too. Ohh yeah almost forgot well done to kingsford for making it out of Colchester and turning up to lol.
Lovely day lads, many thanks to Martin and Rob for hints and tips and to Graham for removing the leaf from my engine bay:) All the best and see you soon.

[QUOTE=V70 Graham;664935]I did give it the once over.....looked rapid, didn't get a chance to chat to the owner though.[/QUOTE] It's been at the Swedish day at Haynes, apparently it's got about 400BHP and has had circa £60K spent on it.

Was a very good meet great to chat to those who I had a chance to and sorry to those who I didn't. Certainly good to put some names to some faces and even better to see the cars, of which the standard was exceptional. Sharkey 1st time I've seen your R and I have to say it is a seriously well kept car, I love the attention to detail you have. Thanks to Gav for the lift was a pleasure, a lovely car you have yourself and goes very well too ;) Oh if you're wondering where the 940 was it was filthy and at home couldn't bring myself to drive it down in it's condition not having had a chance to clean it before hand, yes I know I am a tart...... lol So that's 2 Nordic meets at the Ace Cafe I've been to and 2 that I've not driven too... Think next year will have to be a record breaker... lol [QUOTE=smithy;664910]That silver 740 looks nice too .is that off voc[/QUOTE] If you mean the saloon it was an n/a 2.3 940 GLE auto with just over 300,000 miles on the clock, a very clean well preserved car just a shame about the kitchen sideboards and silly signs propped up against it.... The estate is a 760 Turbo and an earlier Garrett T3 model with the ZF auto transmission no less, 178,000 miles and mechanicially appeared standard. It was however fitted with air suspension and some sort of a boot install which was demo'd with a rather odd choice of Status Que and rocking all over the world... lol
