Midlands Lunch Meet - 23rd September (Hickory's Smokehouse)
Chappers replied to will300's topic in Social Meets
My girlfriend and I did actually pop over while Costco were fitting some tyres, but had a load of stuff happening in the morning so didn't get there until about 1:30. We were in the black Z3. Sorry we didn't say hi, we had no idea where or who you were but did have a good look around the car park. Anna now likes both the Subaru blue and the black, so the options keep opening up! I think I might have seen a load of you wander out... You all look quite young (I'm only 31 and you made me feel old!) perhaps I should be Volvo shopping instead...- 48 replies

Afternoon all, I thought I'd better pop in and say hi. I'm currently shopping for a couple of GT86s / BRZs / one of each. My fiancee recently expressed interest in an orange auto to replace her Z3 and after driving a few I've decided I'd quite like one too. I've since convinced her that a white one is much cooler (sorry orange peeps). Shame I can't convince her to get her manual license! I've been into performance cars since I can remember really, recently I owned a Noble M12 and now have a BMW M3 CSL in the garage but my daily drive is a Ford Puma which is getting tired and old, so I'd like something a bit more fun and RWD to replace it for my daily commute and supermarket duties. I'm also missing a bit of the car community vibe, the CSL crowd are all about garages and value watching and they're just not a particularly friendly bunch, the Noble lot were fun but obviously I don't have that any more so hanging around with them just reminds me of the cool car I don't own any more. Anyway, I'm on the lookout for a blue, manual BRZ in the short term and already have a number of mods planned (wheels, UEL manifold, maybe a little bit of lowering... turbo, rocket bunny v3, different wheels, ah b*gger I'm going to need a new "daily") and a white GT86 auto for the OH, probably April / May next year when it's the right time to sell a Z3! Cheers! Chappers

Looks fancy!

That's not the worst idea I've heard... Interesting, very interesting.
-
Is this still for sale?
-
Why a BRZ? Purely vanity reasons I'm afraid, I've always loved WR Blue Mica so the BRZ is the only option!
-
Jevvy are you going to use the tyres or just the alloys? I was hoping to get a set for winter and these look perfect.

Yes it's not a huge place and they always reserve a few tables for walk ins, so struggle with larger groups. If you all get there at 11:30 though, the car park should be pretty empty.- 48 replies

Hello, I'm new to this game, so new in fact that I don't have one yet because I'm still shopping but it would be good to pop along for a chat if there are a few of you there! Not sure I'll be eating, I'm meant to be on a diet.- 48 replies
