Carl....

You started the poll but haven't voted ????

[ds2000]

I'll be there, with the Honda-R club mind, I'll certainly come and have a look for all of you though.

We'll be the 3 Toyota's surrounded by dozens of Lexi :(

TOC members just don't seem to go to meets....

[ds2000]

Thats a real shame, the motor museum is a great venue :), good food there as well.

I think theres going to be quite a lot of cars there this time (this is the last meet):

Hopefully I'll be in a Toyo by then, more than likely it'll still be my Prelude though.

[Steve Ratcliffe]

I would be up for that, gives me a deadline to get the new car sorted out.

Steve.

Ryan, I voted first!

[grottybags]

Bicester Village is full of the big label clothes companies selling their stuff off cheap.

Okay, so it's mostly last season's stuff, but I'm not into up-to-date labels, I'm into getting stuff cheap. i'm married to a Yorkshire man ;)

I went there once whilst Andrew went to a car yard or something with a firend. I went with the friends girlfriend who had to stop en-route from Buckingham to pick up a prescritption. We were suppossed to be there all morning shopping and meeting the lads at lunchtime.

We got there 10 minutes after the lads did, so not much shopping got done.

I'm not sure I ever forgave her for that ;)

[grottybags]

There's a word flying around the room at the moment, and the word is "ar5e" from hubby.

He thought the meet was on the 8th and 9th, not the 23rd.

I don't think we can go after all, we've got a wedding on the saturday :(

[yaristpot]

[TheNissanMan]

Talking of shows if I can get the project car's paint work done for JAe what's the chance of having 2 car's on the stand, I can guarentee one of them will be very unique :)

[jimma]

Jimma will be there if he can find out where Gaydon is and how to get there from Portsmouth! Can I just turn up?

[TheNissanMan]

Easy way to find the route is to go to Toyota's www.getmethere.co.uk, click on use the getmethere system, click on plan route, enter your postcode and then enter CV35 0BJ as the destination postcode.

The museum is located just off J12 of the M40, full address is:

The Heritage Motor Centre

Banbury Road, Gaydon

Warwick, CV35 0BJ

According to the getmethere system, Portsmouth is 121miles away, so roughly 2 hours drive....

HTH

[grottybags]

It's in Wiltshire, on the way up to Birmingham.

We are going now, I've got Monday off work, now just to change the hotel booking.

Bicester Village will be quieter on a Monday too ;)

[+Steve]

Jimma.. i am fom Bournemouth. i can meet you at the winchester services if you want to follow?

[TheNissanMan]

Anybody want to meet up around the oxford area ???

[Carlgolsby]

I'll be going up M25 then M40, any suggestions where we could meet? actually there's some services at the A40 Oxford turn off isn't there?

[TheNissanMan]

I'll have a look at a map and postback, can't remember where the services are, normally don't get enough time to see them in my rear view :)

--------------------

mods so far.....

-30mm TTE springs, TTE rear exhaust box, HKS induction kit, TRD front upper strut brace,

Lexus rear lights, clear rear fog light lens, tinted side repeaters.

mods to come.....

Tinted windows, front lower spoiler from japan! some proper speakers and of course a set of FAT 17's!!!!!!

Yaristpot, firstly where did you get your clear fog lense from? is it exactly the same as the reverse lens? Ie, can I order a replacement reverse light lens and get a red bulb for the fog light?

Also, have you had your car performance tested since installing the Induction kit and the exhaust?

Thanks,

Steve.
