Inaugural TLF Worcestershire Meet

[Djs44]

In Scotland on holiday that day I'm afraid . 

[Suddabym]

So, just to say, what with the delay to freedom and all, that the plan is to still have the meet on 25th July (week after Silverstone GP).

For those of us going to Goodwood, we're still waiting for clarification and that may become a thing, but I doubt it will affect us.

Awesome. Looking forward to it.

@Suddabym - spotted you just after lunch today driving past brightwells in Leominster. I was the clown waving from the VW van going the other way.

😃 

My glasses broke so I was doing an emergency run to Specsavers. 

Ah, I get so much positive attention on the road I kinda get blasé with it. If only I'd known it was you!

Highnam car show on Sun. Bicester Heritage for LDC veterans day on Mon. The car's been awesome!

So, let's go firm on Sunday 25th Jul, for 1000hrs. Recommend that we meet again at Coco's Cafe (which will be open this time), and maybe over a brew, chat through options for a run out.

Pass the word. Be nice to chat in not terrible rain (hopefully) and with a buttie and a brew.

 Will be on hols in (sunny) Polperro that weekend. Looking forward to the next opportunity though for a meet. Or if you 2 want to discuss and propose a Herefordshire/Worcestershire tour route for sometime after...?

I was supposed to be doing an EV car charger power upgrade this Sunday - but for some reason, probably football, it’s been dumped. I now have to do the swap over on the 25/07 - so sadly I can’t make it either 😥

[Suddabym]

So I went to Goodwood yesterday and it was epic. Loved the massive Lotus vibe, seeing the Emira in the flesh, more Evija, lots of Lotusness; I even had a chat with Russell Carr! Just ace.

And, the Esprit, got me there and back without issue. 2 fantastic drives in one day! Brilliant. 

Could not have had a more fun day and the Esprit even solicited attention while it was parked up. A guy posted a pic of it on the internet!

Awesome!

Barry, Robin - shame you both can't make it. Real shame. I wanted to catch up about the online Emira launch and being on the big screen!

If there's anyone out there planning to come, please shout, and we'll keep the date. If no one shouts up, then I think it'll need postponing to a date in Sep, say, when people aren't quite as away-y.

So... if you're coming on 25th Jul, shout, and we'll crack on with it.

That is quite literally, the one! Yeah. How awesome does Lexi look there? I can't believe (having paid for supercar parking) that they put me next to a BMW!

Brilliant. Thanks Bibs, made my day!

[Bibs]

I had a chance to have a good look, first time I've seen it in the flesh and very impressed mate, it is stunning. 

[Barrykearley]

It’s Breakfast club up at Shelsley tomorrow.

Thought I should clean the lemon.

any one else going ?

[Suddabym]

Looking good, enjoy!

[Suddabym]

So, we'll cancel for next Sunday (25th) and look to rearrange in September. 

Don't forget Channel 4, 1745hrs (straight after the sprint race!).

Awesome!

[Djs44]

That program was very interesting - reminded me of when the Elise was launched in 1996 . 

I think they will do well . 

[PAUL GURNEY]

Hi Chaps

Sorry i have not been active for a while

Any way its Bromyard Festival of Speed this weekend (1st August ) i will be there., any one else coming?

I will be in my Westfield which i have just spent the last month rebuilding after my son crashed it( there's another story)

Its now changed colour, new body with fresh paintwork picked up this afternoon, Now all i have to do is fit it, fit new brakes, rewire and finish off retriming the cockpit, so no pressure !!     

[Barrykearley]

Yup - I’ll be there 👍

I’m liking the gulf colour scheme 💪

I know its not very Lotus, but its so iconic, oh and so shinny 

I have an entry to go up the hill, have you Barry?

[Barrykearley]

Sure do have @PAUL GURNEY 😊

[Suddabym]

Paul, I am loving the Gulf paint job. Looking forward to seeing that in the flesh.

Can't do Bromyard sadly, as have friends coming over.

But, am signed up for Supercar Fest at Shelsley Walsh on 29th August, which I am superly looking forward to. Who else is going?

BTW, not sure if it's just me but I thought that C4 docu on Lotus was a tiny bit rubbish.

Think I'll be going in an Aston but haven't booked yet - would be great to see your car . 

[Suddabym]

Well, the car's gonna be at the Supercar Fest and the Salon Prive a week later 🙂

And at some point, I need to get over to Caffeine and Machine - a pilgrimage I have yet to make.

Extra love my car. Drove it to Ledders today and it was spectacular (had two keep the frozen stuff on the passenger seat, mind).
