 Hi everyone,

Very advance notice of a gap in our events calendar that David Mortiboys has kindly offered to arrange for us.

The website is www.transport-museum.com  There is lots to see and do by the look of it, and a great indoor venue for November I think!!!

Obviously David will post more information nearer the time.

Bye for now,

Karen

I can vouch for CMT, its a very interesting place to visit, I've browsed there for hours.

But I'm a bit lost re what this post is about? - what is being arranged

Hi,

The post is a North East Midlands Area Event (see the section title) to visit the Coventry Motor Museum for the day. If you're free on the date you'd be more than welcome to join us.

 To whom it may concern!  David/ Karen/ Rich

Just came across this posting, whilst using the NEM site this morning.  Doesn't appear to have been much response so far, maybe too early for people to make plans.  But yes I'm definetly interested.  Await further details.

Rich sorry to hear about your car!  First I heard of it was yesterday in Holmfirth, when I bumped (not literally) into Alan from Peaks & Pennines.

Another conversation later in the day, Jim may know of a MK3 available at a bargain price, worth a call.

Hi Alan,

You're right - it's early, the interest will increase nearer the date.

No worries re: the car - I've been to look at a mk3, but it didn't grab me like the mk1, so I'm undecided on that front....

Rich

 Please include Lynn and myself for this run.

 I'm with Rich on this one - give me a Mk1 any day!!

 Hi everyone,

I'm planning to come on the Coventry Motor Museum run - Not been able to make many NEM events this year, but I've definitely booked this one in the calendar.

Had a great day out at Silverstone on Saturday and came back with the hood down. It is right what they say, keep the car above 40 mph and the rain just goes over the top. I came through some very, very heavy rain around Tamworth on the A5 and only my hat got wet. (Being tall, that bit is sticking up into the airflow.)  I expect that other motorist could not believe their eyes as an open topped sports car passed them in the heavy rain.

 Regards,

I spoke to David Mortiboys last week, I know he has this drive/visit in hand and will be posting more information re timings etc in the next week or so. The link to the museum website is on the first post on this thread. If you would like to come along will you start posting so that David can get a rough idea of numbers please.
