Meet up
Re: Meet up
There used to be a South West Trains guard called Gary Numan. He looked like Gary Numan (punky black hair, lots of jewellery). I don't think it was *that* Gary Numan.

I've booked tickets for Bicester Heritage on the 28th and will be going with my father in law & son in any event so if any of you guys end up going just give me shout nearer the time.

Re: Meet up
Nope (& I see it’s now sold out). But I’ll be driving past morning and evening for an Autosolo just up the road at Finmere.

SJ, GG and other southerners,
You chaps going to Simply Porsche at Beaulieu this year? (Sun 2nd June)
Missed the last two years due to being away. Good event.

Looks good! I might stick it in the diary. Not been to these sorts of things before but presumably I ought to give the Boxster a bit of a polish beforehand.Coaster1 wrote: Mon May 06, 2019 7:43 pm SJ, GG and other southerners,

Long term weather forecast looking good so I will likely be going.
If there’s a group of OV9 and you guys are coming from the M3, you can stop by south of Winchester and I’ll meet you there?
Re: Meet up
Does look good but its a bit of a trek from South East London - Google maps shows 2.5hrs so would be a 5 hour round trip excluding any bank holiday traffic shenanigans.
Re: Meet up
Yeah, bit of a trek for most.
Not bank holiday that weekend, but Goodwood Breakfast Club Supercar Sunday takes place on the same day, so from previous experience the roads in Hampshire will be pretty busy.

Re: Meet up
About an hour and a half from me, as long as the traffic isn't horrific. I'll come along
Re: Meet up
Long term weather forecast: rain
Guess who bought a ticket yesterday

Great turnout yesterday including loads of older stuff.

Re: Meet up
What is this?!
Re: Meet up
It’s a 997 with bodykit, not sure if there’s any engine swap as I didn’t hear it running. It’s very well done.
Tiptronic though

Re: Meet up
Haha just noticed it has the same headlights as my Defender.
How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Meet up
Oof Avenutura on that 992
I like that it seems to be a popular colour on them.
Saw my first one in the flesh yesterday though. It was in Crayon which didn't help but I still really don't like the rear end treatment. I think the rest of it looks epic though.

Re: Meet up
I really like the rear of the 992 now - The rear arches seem really low and extra wide and the rear windows with the classic D shape seem rwally low. Way more exotic looking than previous generations to me.
Re: Meet up
I no longer like the front of the 992, specifically the horizontal slats. It looks too average and toned down compared to the rear but I know it’s because they’ve left like that on purpose so they can put the goodies on the hotter versions.
