Super Southern Meet X (or 10)

Damn I should have popped in to the A45 passenger ride! Got too caught up in the tinkering around back at the Inn when that was going on I think! Also the Atom.

Next time :cool:

As for more pics, I missed a photo PMK's M5 sadly :(~

My wheels look so dirty but my car doesn't look anywhere near as dirty as it did in person :p I'll take that. Nice pics mrk :)

My front wheels looked dark grey on the inside when I got home, those 2 hoons did a right number on the brakes :D Surprisingly I was reading 21MPG too :eek:




Here you go!

Yh my mpg took a hit, went from 270 mile range to 190 after that second hoon :p Wish I had a dashcam for when you tried to overtake the freelander with the caravan coming the opposite way.

I have that footage :p

I was wise to bail that overtake, as 2 of the guys 3-4 car lengths in front of me overtook it successfully, I saw the gap (the caravan was too far away to spot at that point) and decided to drop a gear and follow suit. It was only when I got level with the Freelander that I noticed the caravan in the distance approaching fast. If I kept going I could have made it but it would have been very tight and would have annoyed the Freelander and the car in front of him and the caravan, so I bailed the manoeuvre and fell back in line.

Haha yh I had a great view from right behind. There was another landrover driver that badger and I tried to overtake as he was plodding along at 50 after a couple of the others had easily overtaken. Annoyingly to spite us he sped up to 65+ when we tried to overtake, was wondering why I was having to really put my foot down in third and realised I was hitting silly speed haha.
 
Yeah I remember that! Think I was in that line too and wondering why the landy was suddenly going much faster :o

OC Pete, how many bugs did you catch on your sunglasses and face scarf? My windscreen was plastered with splattered guts, can only imagine what it must be like in the Atom!

Thankies :)

My mpg went up by .1 to 26. Think the motorway trip to and from helped that happen.

And yes that bloody Landrover driver.....

Friends Jag dropped to 16MPGs and used half a tank of petrol . My mpgs actually went up to 38.3 after almost maxing it to keep up with the Z4 on the way back to the Holiday Inn.
 
Yeah in hindsight overtaking the Land Rover wasn't my finest decision when there are many many cars attempting to follow lol.

Don't tempt me :p I take it that yours sold successfully last night then? Have you already hit the go button on the new order?

In all seriousness let me mull it over during the day tomorrow (and check the bank balance) then will give you a shout with a yes/no after :)
 
I just remembered another funny moment, on the way there in the morning as I came to the first of roundabout about 5 mins from the holiday inn I saw a grey 5 series speed past me on the right at the roundabout approach and then fall into line swiftly. "BMW driver, typical!" I thought.

Guess who it was :p

Indeed first person to view bought it, probably helped that I gave it a good clean before he came :D. No rush mate, you've got first dibs until I get back from Nyc at the end of the month after which I'll put them up on the cutters forum.

Not pushed the button yet, still trying to squeeze the dealers for every last drop :p.

The fantastic mr...:p
 
Excellent, stick firm to your asking price? Awesome thank you kindly, will have an answer for you by the time you return, shall email through trust so you don't miss it :)

I'm sure they'll be able to knock a bit more off ;) let us know how you get on!
 
Was going to say the mpg on my jag is ludicrous. It's had a few tweaks on the engine and a piggy back ecu but the mpg calculator went down to 16 bloody mpg!!! Had a really good day though, it was good to see the villagers faces when they saw a complete convoy of prestige cars!!!
 
Mine wasn't too bad, a tank to get there and back and 1/2 a tank on trips & the drive to the Inn & back (the return trip being much quicker with Si & Biggles).
