It's been said i don't give enough notice so....... We have a Ferrari meet in January 09 with a currently confirmed 20 cars... Lotus owners club may also attend so expect some sparks

I will be there...can't miss this!

The event will be advertised in all the necessary papers so the local community is invited as we will have a few million pounds worth of cars at the centre at one time..... The F430 as seen in "joy of Geometry" alone is worth 500k and leads the pack.

If I were to come I'd have to park the S12 round the back and walk the rest of the way

Do the sports car dudes mind the "natives" knocking about ? Or have does Herts have nicer people than Manchester ?

Well we don't have many trains on bricks down here, although i don't recommend stopping at the lights for to long

Sounds good, hopefully it will be busy then...how about asking a mag to come along, I'm sure they'd be interested with that many Ferrari's in one place?

I'm going to, and the local paper...

i will be coming to this ....if thats ok.?....better get me camera ready

This sounds awesome but I'm not sure I'm going to be in the country on that day

Don't think a date has been arranged yet just that it will be in January 2009.

Lol, my bad, read that as 9th January

I did the same mate, thought to meself hang on that's a Friday and then it hit me!

They are looking for a Saturday date in Jan...... In truth there's non of this "your beneath us stuff", most of the owners have just managed to buy their dream car and they are just like you and me.

Isn't Saturday your busiest day, so what if customers turn up will you still be working?

Must take some saving to buy your dream car! I'd imagine servicing and insuring a Ferrari costs a small fortune.

Yep Saturday is quite a loss if i devote this to the club..... But there's some good publicity to be had locally and nationally so i'm not to troubled.

As for the service costs........ I'll let you know in about 50yrs

If you can get some national mags it would be brilliant publicity.

Think I read in a magazine a while ago that the average service is a good few grand! :shocked:

I don't have contacts in the Italian mags but the owners club is the biggest in the uk and they will cover the meet.... where the images go from there who knows...... As for actual servicing, i'm not interested in that.

Any idea what day yet ? I need mucho notice to book it off of work.

Area coordinator for the Ferrari owners club has suggested the last Sunday in January, i'm still waiting for the definite agreement of that date.

Due to commitments with wim and the club we have agreed a date of 22nd March 09, 10am - 1pm

Expected turnout is 30+ cars covering the Ferrari years.... everyone is invited as will be the press, posh food in site, a few prizes and some hunnies

Cool cant wait for this one....date noted in my diary.

Cool, it might even be abit warmer then! Plenty of notice for everyone.

It should be good.... hopefully 30+ cars..... I'm also arranging a Skyline owners meet

Now that i will want to be at ....my fav car... is it ok to come to that aswell mr B .?

As with all meets everyone's welcome

so it's set for March now ? Actually suits me as Jan is tricky for time off.

edit: oh, nice grahic ER

Cheers mate...don't think it's abit OTT then?

Gets the message across though to those who don't see this thread

Messes up the screen format a little but no big deal. When I get some decent shots of the Silvia you'll have to done one for me!

Have a vote on where it should go Click here

If you want a line drawing like that mate there would be a fee as it took a good few hours!

Tony is this date correct as it's a Sunday but also mothers day? Missus has just informed me!

Yep..... It's the date they chose so don't blame me.

Ah right! That's gonna make her indoors happy...good job it finishes at 1pm

I bet the date has rescued many owners

Not me! I'm in the doghouse now and probably won't be going!

You need to put your foot down with a firm hand

Yeah we'll see but I'm still getting the silent treatment!

To be fair though we had arranged ages ago what we were doing on that day.

Are there any numbers yet for how many people are coming (excluding the Ferrari OC members)...been much interest elsewhere?

It's been visible on their forum and today we was sent a copy of the club mag announcing the meet to those who missed the thread..... I will know numbers later this month.

Is this still on? Seems awfully quiet with nobody mentioning it even though it's less then a week away.

Did you "say" you had put it in the local paper too ?

Yes mate its still on this sunday between 10am & 1pm....

Initially that was the plan but on reflection this could invite the wrong sort of guests if you know what i mean.

Are you doing geo's on any of these Ferrari's as well?

Some numbers....

There will a selection of 20 different Ferrari's and a selection of other top marques on site.....

The meets theme is all Italian, from the history of Ferrari on the 52" tv to the food and even Italian ice cream from a specialist in the art?

There is a raffle topped with a £200 prize off any tyres also seemingly there will be some scantily clad young lady's passing around the Italian wine/ champagne .... Drivers please be wise!!

No actual adjustments will be made on the day due to time constraints, this is a Ferrari Geometry health check meet

Tony was telling me earlier mate, it all sounds good

Were you in a hurry to leave work tonight, you pulled out of the Ind Est a couple of cars ahead of me...it was only just 6pm...one of the perks of being the boss eh, you go home and they lock up!

Difference is when they leave work they go home, when i leave work i go to work ....... Anyhoo what was you doing there at the time

If you mean being on here and answering emails etc I'm sure you'd rather be at home doing it

I was seeing Tony, trying to find this petrol smell on the pug.

@ER

Blimey i wish it was that simple, i easily do five hours an evening, seven days a week just to catch up, let alone advance....

That petrol smell..... kind of odd that since i thought the pug was diesel

5 hours Give yourself a break sometime mate.

The 205 was diesel, the 306 is petrol
