VOC/V3M at Beaulieu - 6th (and 5th) October 2019

Post by foggyjames »

Hi Team!

We're returning to Beaulieu for this year's 'national' event. Hopefully it will be as successful at Brooklands last year!

Meet at Beaulieu (SO42 7ZN) from 10am on the 6th for a line-up of cars, chat, and a look around the museum.

There's talk of a drive on the Saturday (followed by pub, I'm sure!) - reply if you're interested in that.

cheers

Excellent, will be good to see the red car after all the work you've put in. I will be in my GLT as the GLS is still gearbox-less! :roll:

Bah humbug, the red one died on its way to the MOT a couple of weeks ago and has been at the garage ever since, sorry! It passed the MOT but they said its lethal due to the stalling problem which that they can't fix. They've put new floats in the carb and have moved on to the coil - I've given them my collection of old renix's in case they can find a good one. However, I'll get there in the blue 1.7 insteaders, barring disasters...

A good day indeed, lucky to have the decent weather too - had a great drive back via the New Forest. Hopefully you'll get the red car back soon :)
