If anyone's coming from Cork direction and want to meet up before hitting the road could pick somewhere. Also, if anyone's without transport there should be a few spots there and back.

I'll be heading up from Cork anyway, you probably have a better idea than me of a good place to meet though.

This is going to be one of the biggest meets ever, shame I only have a Tiguan. Why can't we have meets on the week where I have a cool car!:D:cool:

Nothing stopping you getting that 370Z again is there??

That's probably handiest for you if you're getting on the road in Mitchelstown. But we can meet somewhere in cork before hitting the road. Have done the retail park in Mahon Point in the past.

2011 Press Car. I would guess Nissan have sold that at this stage.

Why would he settle for one when, like Yul Brynner in the old film, he can flit from flower to flower?

You'd like to think that eh, there's also a 370z Roadster on that fleet.

The sales list for 2011 that is floating around says only one 370 was sold last year. I assumed it was this one. Still, only one sold, crazy.

I will be joining the dublin road via the south ring so Mahon or somewhere like that would be sound for me.

Come down on Saturday, stay in the hotel at the Midway and you'll be the 1st one there on Sunday

Just think - the dirtier it is, the more likely you are to get a slagging. Use that as motivation

Ah touché!! Well it'll be waiting till tomorrow anyway cause the gym is calling for once!!:D

Mr Benevolent

Think I might be driving myself to the meet now. I'll keep the car unwashed to um, protect the paint.

It's a pity you don't still have that RWD Corsa.

It's still sitting outside. I converted it to FWD though. Quite a job The Alfa will probably draw even more comment, especially if it makes it to the meet.

Thinking of covering it in stickers.

EPM

Anymore names for attending?

What exit are you nearest for Saturday. We're meeting Corkie at the exit 8 services in Cashel if that suited. If we leave Cork at 1030 then we should be there comfortably by 1115.
