Hi guys I another evening blat is on the cards for Wed July 20th and have posted the details at the Lotus 7 forum I run and would like to extend a invite out to any PH'ers who would like to join us with there interesting cars.

Meeting Venue : Cashmere Rd by Princess Margaret Hospital (use the car parks at Hoonhay Rd end)

Leaving Time : 6:45pm leaving 7pm sharp

Route & Destination : Heading up to Dyers Pass and thru Govenors Bay and to Gebbies pass and then back to Halswell on the old Tai Tapu rd where we will get back on to Cashmere rd and then on to Centurus Rd and on to Port Hills Rd and over into Garlands Rd in Woolston where we will stop at the newly opened pub called the Brewery (plenty of parking and you can get a coffee too) I know this route brings us back into town and its the first time I have done that on these runs, but as its winter i will keep it too this short format. I must confess I will be bringing the MX5 as the my Lotus replica will be getting its gearbox replaced.

Also its weather dependent which means if its raining its off but if a southerly is due through I will be watching the weather and post here by 6pm if its called off. Please post here if your interested or need any more info

Cheers Stephen

I'm now going to bring the lotus 7 replica as it hasn't gone in for a gearbox change yet. Hope some others from PH can make it smile

Hope it was a good night. Apologies couldn't make it and ran out of time to encourage others.

Keen for the next one.

It was the middle of winter and 5 degrees so quite funny watching all those in open cars all wrapped up. Result was a short run over the hills and round the harbour followed by a pint at Prebbleton.

Maybe all the TVRs will be fixed next time !!

It was good fun 6 cars turned up 2 Lotus Elise's and 4 Seven replicas with the occupants wrapped up pretty tight & warm for the cold but clear evening.

More are planned and I will revert back to my normal 2nd Wed evening of each month with the next one being the 10th August.
