I know we've tried this before but with the weather improving, just wondered if anyone fancied setting up a 'meet' ?
Not sure how to organise these things, and to be quite honest, whether anyone would want to turn up, but just tipping a toe in the E31 water!
Might be good for some 'group' photos [not that sort Peter!]
Cheers
Steve
Shrewsbury by the way....

Must admit the ebay picture seems to resemble a Tesco home delivery!

I cant bear driving on them in the rain. Nobody seems to take account of the reduced speed limits and the surfaces are like glass. Also as you said Steve, the reduction from two lanes to one does tend to make 'my' rear end twitch, never mind the cars!

Just off to the tip to hunt for a 6 series gearbox, the one with the 7 gears obviously, and hook it up to an old Hillman Imp diff. Next I'll liberally apply a handful of Swarfega and wow!!!
I wonder why the boffins in Munich didnt think of this? Couldve saved themselves a few billion DM's in development costs.

Followed a sad looking Corsa today with 6 inch tailpipes and wondered why on earth they had bothered. Then I recalled a few cars from my youth and realised I probably looked just as stupid ...
Had an A reg Astra GTE in white in 1984 and decided it would look better with white mirrors. However didnt stop there so also painted the wiper arms, applied Union Jacks to the wings, attached an anti static thingy [dont ask] sprayed the grille white,highlighted the awesome 185-60 tyres with some sort of red crayon and painted the Vauxhall logo red.
Look forward to hearing about some other 'disasters' in the name of fashion! -
I made that mistake too a few years ago! After a couple of weeks they had given up the ghost and looked like a large black crisp!
Just didnt want to pay full dealer whack thats all. -
Hi all
Just wondered if anyone konws of a good cheap source for either genuine or as near to genuine car mats for the 8? Not with incredibly attractive metal floor plates or pictures of playboy bunny girls if possible!

Maybe we all need to meet in a big room and discuss the problem that we all seem to have! Something on the lines of Alcoholics Anonymous. Even better still perhaps a Betty Ford type of clinic.
I think I'll call the Samaritans and see if they have anyone there I can talk to about my E31 problem
Keep at it! -
Dont do it Al!
I did the same when the first XK8 came out and got rid of my 8 series. When the roads became absolutely full of XK8's I suddenly remembered why I loved the 8 so much and quickly bought another.
Remember you heard it here first!
