I am based in Leamington.

I'm pretty sure we have talked about a meet last year.

We really need to get it on this year.

HI Moo, Hope all is well. My car is having an engine rebuild at Stealth this year , he has the new pistons all ready but ging to call him to get a date tomorrow. I will still come to a meet in my Mk2 golf though and tag on if the Rado is not ready. 

Any other Midlands owners about I think there are a fair few hiding on here ?

Hi All,

I'm in Newark, Notts. I bought my VR6 about 2 years ago. It was in bad shape mechanically after 10 years of zero use. My engine (and pretty much everything else) was rebuilt by Steve at C&R six months ago. Next up is to get the bodywork dings sorted and alloys refurbed. It would be good to get enough of us together for a local meet.

HI Hutty, 

Thanks for introducing yourself. Congrats on your engine build mate I'm going to call up Stealth tomorrow to book mine in. 

My car has had a couple of weeks of bad luck to be honest. First a water leak which I put down to a door membrane which is now hopefully fixed. My spoiler has started to work intermittently and to top it off I changed a new battery as my old one kept going dead and now the new one has gone dead after a couple of weeks been fitted so looks like I have a damn battery drain. Checked the boot and cubby light and both going out, well annoying ! Wonder if it has anything to do with me getting my headlight metallised and messing with cables getting the lights out.   

 

Anyway these will be sorted and well up for a meet this Summer . Never really go on long enough drives but I know there are some great roads around Malvern and Ledbury and some idlic spots for some photos of the cars in situ. Up for anywhere though to meet around the Midlands will be great to have a Rado convoy.

How are the Radlanders doing? Good news I should have my car back before the start of summer with a full engine rebuild performed by Stealth starting shortly. . Well up for a meet now! Are there any other Midlanders on here that have their cars up and running ready for summer  ?  Where has the red one gone with the dealer body kit that was highly specced? Would like to see that one.

Great stuff Ben thanks for introducing yourself. There are a fair few Rados around the Midlands by the  sounds of it, there is a Khaki 16V down the road from me and the girl is always telling me how rare the colour is. 

June it is then Seb  we will all  start drumming up a plan. 

 

[sebas_9A 10]

Happy to see more people with enthusiasm Ben!

Peak district perhaps Keyo? or we coud do a bbq at cannock chase on front of our cars but for road trips on this area are well you know... and we can not stay longer than 3h.

A good  option shoud be  Horseshoe Pass having a breakfast on the top together and after EVO triangle but I think will be too far for few of us. 

I will have a look on the area 🙂
