Good but short (bloody freezing) meet guys.

Ted, your 200 looked lovely, really liking the black and white!

Yeah was a good meet. Agree about the 200. Would rather have a 200 than the new Meg.

Good to meet you Adz. Hope your experience tonight does not put you off coming to future meets :eek:

Yeah good meet and love the 200 also - Definetly the 'best looking' Clio to date! ;)

Fingers crossed Mr Ferrari didnt get the book thrown at him though.

Good to meet you all too :)

Agreed somewhere warmer next time...trip to Monaco? :D

Police gave me a warning, serves me right for showing off! They are very harsh in Southend compared to everywhere else. Anyway, no harm done :)

Unfortunate that you got caught by them lol, but at least we got to hear it at full belt.

Cold meet but good effort by everyone to stick it out for that long, hardcore CS enthusiasts need only apply lol.
 
  G/W 200 and project Vdub

They threatened to take car from me and give me six points for careless driving! Bit harsh for a very small wheel spin. Not even sure I got out first gear when they pulled me lol.

Despite the police It was fun :)

Like Becca says, seems and entertaining meet was missed.
On the subject of the Christmas meal - I'll get a poll up so we can get some feedback on what kind of meal you guys (and girls - Rob) want.

BTW No need for a poll. Noodle place-Nags Head or the other pub across the road-Anywhere thats open until the early hours of the morning. Sorted. For the lightweights that need to sleep-Premier Inn. :D

We'll go with that then, when Matt gets back from his piss up we'll see where he got to, I think he made a few calls.

I'll bring my 182 to that event as you lot are clearly a bad influence on my driving habits :D

Lol, that's not fair - I didn't get to see the red car, hopefully we'll convince you to bring the proper car and not a shitty old clio :quiet:

Depends where we go. I get a bit paranoid about where I park it. In fact I dont drive it if I have to leave it somewhere I dont know - past experiences, two cars nicked, badges stolen, blah blah usual stuff.


They threatened to take the car because you wheel spinned? Utter fooking tools

They just said that to sh*t me up (which they did!) Told me it was £150 release fee and £20 per day if it was in a compound and saying "you dont want that do you?!" lol

The financial implication was the least of my concerns if I'm being totally honest. Had a few quid on me just incase we were going to pop into the Casino so was thinking of giving the coppers a hefty bribe...but then I realised that would probably get me well truly handcuffed :D

It could've been worse as they can more or less do what they wish as they have the power. All is well with my car tucked up nice and warm in the garage so no harm done at the end of the day.

I was VERY VERY polite to the police, I was even begging for them not to take my baby away (I had no dignity at that point, nearly on my knees :D) which probably helped my cause. If i'd have got offensive and rude then things would've been different for sure.

Haha, was definitely OTT on the coppers side, considering some of the goings on down Southend! Will definitely be at the next Essex meet. :)

I'd be the same, so I don't blame you for being cautious.
