Post title should have read "Southern Convoy" [was thinking south west M25 - obviously I have limited geography - propose I don't lead convoy unless we want arrive on Christmas Eve] for Owner's Day Meet Sunday 26th November.

Meeting at Junc 14 off M25 at 9:00am.

***UPDATE*** I've checked the road we're meeting in and it's an access way for lorrys, so not ideal. The next road is much better. From the roundabout, follow the signs for Poyle Industrial Estate and take the second right into Newlands drive - map here www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?G2M?X=503347&Y=175653&A=Y&Z=1

I should be able to make it to Junction 14 by 9am, so count me in.

Bondy - good to hear you are back on the road, I was beginning to think that your car was permanently parked at Plans

H,

Any chance you can PM me your mob number just in case something happens and I can't make the meet.

Lets hope I get the rear diffuser on in time.

What a mare. Not only did it come un painted (sprayed it myself a couple of weeks ago) it also has none of the cut outs.

Thank god for my mates little dremal grinder/cuter.

Just got to give it one more coat to cover the scratches that I've put back on it doing the cutting) and glue the heat shield back on.

Martin,

I didn't. Thought that Noble + hail didn't mix. Couldn't make it to the garage door, let alone go anywhere.

Both exits from the Village were flooded this morning, and I was pelted with hail and it was thundering.

Decided it was not such a good idea to go hooning today.
