...where do you normally go and how many of you are there? Also what's the mix of cars like?

I fancy going on out for a spin with some PH people but wanted to know what you get up to first. Might also be worth knowing if I could keep up in the Panda.

Only been out on a couple of meets, both of those we've met at the top end of the car park, pretty hard to miss a bunch of PHers to be fair hehe

1st meet I went on there was a wide spread of cars, sure you'd be fine in the Panda smile (Just don't make the mistake of following Paul or Rob wink )!

I meant where do you head out for a drive?

I wonder if I have seen you going up the hill at Wiscombe? Not been since 2010 though. Its not far from me in Honiton so I should head up more often really. I think there is a meeting this weekend come to think of it.

Where we go varies on how long people have got & who knows a good route etc.

You may have seen me at Wiscombe in my Clio 172, it's the National Champs there this weekend, I'm not driving but I may pop up to spectate. Honiton is my home town, haven't lived there for over 15 years.

Have I got a reputation I don't know about or do you mean another Rob?

Only joys you get following me are black smoke from the Passat or blue smoke from the Porsche wink

Generally we meet at Exeter Services before going to an event, or sometimes just a run.

A couple times a year we do a Dartmoor run and then go to Castle Drogo for brunch.

Wilton House Supercars is probably the next meeting, on the 5th August.

The cars are always varied, so dont worry about that. However on some runs the group gets split but we always wait !

You didn't knock another tyre off the rim did you? wink

No, nothing like that.

Actually turns out I was potentially lucky with that tyre going - coolant hose died later that evening, whilst idling... so if it'd gone when driving hard, potentially a lot more costly! All sorted now though wink
