Why so few meets?

[CockneyPlayboy]

After many years of membership to various other car forums it seems really strange that there are not more "local" Esprit get togethers.

For example there are a good few owners in Essex yet hardly any local meets? (Usually there are monthly meets for most marques)

It seems that the only meets are the larger organised event meets such as Donny or Brands, and nothing more regular and localised.

Perhaps our cars are just that bit rarer.......?

Meet dont organise themselves, if you want a meet organise one! dont wait around for someone else to do it.

pick a date , time and venue and turn up, that is all you need to do..

AEG, Anglia Esprit Group, meet once a month every month. We have members from Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambs and Essex and meet in those area's on a revolving basis!

When you say local, if you mean within a 10 mile radius then you are right, there isn't alot as our cars are rightly rare, but if you want to meet, with a nice hoon attached on the first Tuesday of every month (except this month when it's on the second Tuesday) then you are more than welcome to join the crew.

See our own AEG section.

And I hear that SLEG (Southern) is in the ascendant. Hopefully more meets in the pipeline for us pasty southerners

Think you'll find there's also a monthly meet on a Sunday just outside Harlow. Principally G car owners though I believe one or two interlopers sneak in from time to time

Great Im totally up for that! (Providing the weather's not doing one of it's usuals!!!)

It would be really great to meet a few other owners as Ive had the esprit approaching a year now and its hardly been used and Ive not met another owner yet!

You need to visit LEF more then Paul - This weekend I was in the company of 50-60 other Esprit's and owners at Donington, the week before we had an event at Brands Hatch. AEG/NMEG/SLEGs meet monthly so I'd imagine you missed a potential 20 meets you could have made it to last year!
