Central Scotland

on: Monday, February 13, 2006

August's Featured Area is Central Scotland.


Welcome to Central Scotland, this month's featured Area, hopefully by the end of this article you will have an insight into what we in Central Scotland are all about.

Central Scotland covers not quite the largest geographical Club area, but certainly the largest area by population, from Dumfries & Galloway to Argyll & the Isles in the west and from the Borders up the East Coast to Fife, fill in the gaps across the central belt including the City's of Glasgow and Edinburgh and there you have it, a huge land mass to cover with no shortage of quiet and interesting roads.

Members are welcome and encouraged to suggest and organise activities throughout the year and full support is given by our joint Area Co-ordinators. We welcome prospective new members to attend a number of events before deciding to join the Club and our policy is not to put pressure on anyone.

Our events take place two or three times a month and consist of :-
 
Monthly Runs…A pre planned drive over mostly quiet and unused roads making the most of one of Scotland's greatest assets, the spectacular scenery.
 
Weekend Tours… We arrange three or four weekend trips per year; these are very popular with our members and highlight the social benefits of Club Membership.
 
Tech Days… Three times a year we hold Technical days, where members are helped and encouraged to tackle some of the minor maintenance tasks on their cars, we also arrange for discounted four wheel tracking to be carried out at a local garage.
 
Inter Club Meetings…Over the years we have met up and driven with members from Dutch, German and American Owners Clubs and for many years we have enjoyed a special relationship with our nearest area across the border…Tyne Tees, apart from our annual meet at Lindisfarne we have often joined up with Tyne Tees for foreign touring, weekends away and member weddings.
 
Pub MeetsAlthough historically Central Scotland were never really part of the Pub Meet scene and would far rather be out driving the cars, a few years ago we introduced regular mid week Pub meetings to the calendar, these have proven to be a resounding success, what started as an incentive to the younger members has had a spin off, and new members of all ages are finding and telling us that this type of social gathering was a great ice breaker before coming along to the bigger events, of course it also suits members who have other commitments or work shifts and might not be able to get to the weekend events.
So what can you do at a Pub meet I hear you ask!! well apart from enjoying a soft drink and a chat, we more than often find the discussion gets extended to the car park where the bonnets get lifted for topical advice and demonstration, in the lighter night months we may jump in the cars for a mini-run just to compliment the night.
  
Central Scotland has its own web site www.mx5scotland.co.uk   where details of all the latest news and events can be found; a much-used forum also exists to provide information and technical advice to both members and non-members.

Thank you for taking the time to read about us, as you can see we are a busy and evolving Area, please don't hesitate to get in touch if you would like to join us or are planning a trip to Scotland, I can't promise you sunny weather but I can promise you a warm welcome:-

Remember… the car's the star, but the members make the Club.
