Roll on, roll on - I can't wait.
You never know weather wise. The event was in October last year and what a glorious day we had. It was cold in the morning but by mid afternoon it was sweltering.

Not really Ezza, only one bad evening where I just felt a bit queasy and couldn't sleep. Glad to be back on land now though...even if it is raining constantly!

I'm hoping we have a freak hot/dry day at Castle Coombe, it will be a shame if it does rain, but eitherway, I shall be bringing my gazebo for us to stand under if necessary.

Yes we still have 12 A2s coming, although I have requested 13 passes in case someone else decides to join us at the last minute.

Stuart,

Have just got back from holiday/work and read the threads. Can't
remember the last time I was on the forum.
Please put me down for the 13th slot. I will definitely be there. As
I subscribe to Audi Driver I was going anyway, but would love to put
mine on the stand.

We had a great turn out at Castle Coombe today with 14 A2s attending and a further 2 joined us unexpectedly during the day.

Thanks to everyone for coming, and I hope you had a great day (despite the rain for the first part of the day!).

If you want to send me a few of your photos and I'll add them to the A2OC site.

I'll second that Stuart. Once the rain stopped - eventually - a great time was had by us.

Nice to see some familiar faces again and to meet some new people too.
The highlight has to be the parade laps at the end. OK, hands up. Who stuck to the 30mph speed limit??[}:)][}:)]

Don't drink drive! Not only is it socially unaceptable, it also harms A2's.
Was a Merlot Red 1.4SE petrol originally.
Now an Ebony Black 1.4SE petrol with Red Leather, CC, Symphony + all the previous options we had.
 
Photos are online now!

Nice meeting everyone......had a fun day, except when the A3 (315Bhp) i was in crashed into the tire wall!!...

I dont think i saw anyone who kept to the 30mph limit on the parade lap!!....i was abit silly and almost lost the back end!!....never again....
 
Wilman - are you sure it wasn't on the motorway on the way home that you almost lost your back end?!! ;)
...That was a good mini-convoy drive, but I just had to give up the pace eventually!

What speed limit? I wasn't aware there was one. [23] No wonder the marshalls were giving us wierd looks. he he he.
A good day out although not as good as last year, the weather had a lot to do with it.
Nice putting faces to names.

My dad is still on holiday at the mo so this is Peter writing this. We both had a brilliant day meeting up with everyone and seeing all the A2's together, the most impressive stand of the day me thinks. Also enjoyed the 30mph parade laps at the end. Yeah right! Managed 75mph with my mum, dad and holly the dog in the car. My mum was having a heart attack, my dad thought I was going to smash the car up, but what a buzz! Very impressed with the A2, I think my next car will have to be an A2, so I will be checking the classifieds in the future.
Look forward to the next meeting and seeing everyone again
Take care
Peter
 
Hello Everyone,

Yep, what a great day it was. Even the initially wet weather didn't dampen our spirits! What a great bunch of people to hang out with for the day!!

Those that didn't make it this time, make sure you are there for the next social gathering - you are really missing something very special with this club.

Looking forward to seeing you all again soon - how about another meeting before Christmas somewhere? Comments please....

I really enjoyed the day, putting faces to names and seeing everybody elses A2. Unfortunately I left early afternoon as the weahter didn't seem to be getting any better, plus I had my 3 yr old son with me and he was getting restless. Looked at the photos and am a bit miffed now to see that the sun eventually came out and looked like a really nice afternoon. I wanted to go out on the track as well at lunchtime and at the end of the day. Lets look forward to the next get together.

Thanks again Stuart for organising this and everybody for turning up and making the best club display of the day. I look forward to 2005.
I will get my application filled in ASAP.

I'm so glad that everyone had a good day on Sunday...
A few of you asked me about the small metal A2 keyring that I had on display on my dashboard on Sunday. If you want one, they can be purchased from the following company: http://www.aspectmodelmaking.co.uk/Templates/Home.htm
They are £6.95 + £1.00 postage. It's probably easiest if you order it yourself instead of me getting it and sending it to you as it'd only mean paying for postage twice...
