This is my favourite pub. The Red Lion has great food, beautiful scenery and a big car park. So the dates I propose are Saturday 23 or Sunday 24 of September. I was thinking of a Portsmouth start (Me) across to Southampton (Cooper, Adyr etc..) then up to Winchester (Highwayman, Dingo etc..) then back down to the Lion for something to eat and a few photos, then a show of our appreciation to the south cost back roads . So what do you think, it could be the last few weeks of dry roads .

Oh my word, that's going to cause confusion with the Hemel Red Lion meets Sounds like fun, but I have a flying competition that weekend (and besides, my car is not currently fit to be seen in public ) so I won't be able to make it. Neil (Hemel Red Lion - original and best - accept no substiuted )

I would've made the effort, as I've yet to meet any local coupe owners, though Cooper has mailed and we've exchanged hellos. Unfortunately I'm off to the Dominican Republic on the 21st, so maybe next time. Regards to you all, hope the sun shines and the roads are camera and Bill clear!

Paul, maybe if your nerves are up to it Adyr could pick you up or myself . If you can't get off work until 1330 we could probably start at Winchester, drop down to Southampton then go to the Lion.
was only jokin mate, why would i go on a meet without my flame spitting car

I could be persuaded to bring my newly sprayed and bumpered car along I suppose . May have to get clearance from 'er indoors, as the Coupe is not her favourite thing at the moment . It might be best for me to meet up with you guys locally and then let you blast off to the pub, as I may have little ones in tow to get my pass . Maybe we could meet up near Tescos again, although I could perhaps suggest somewhere that isn't quite as public . Halfords/Currys is about 100yds away, and their car park is a lot quieter.... Phil

I would be there for the next one, this is definatly my closest meet but i have a series of niggly problems with the coop (strange clocking noises, fuses that keep falling out of the fuse holder, a clicking noise when i turn the cockpit fan on) not to mention my slipping clutch. So i'd be mightily embarrised and fearfull of my car just plain conking out at the side of the M27.
Do one on a sunday in Late october and i should be there.

Interested 007 (Chris) Markyboy (Mark) Cooper (Paul) kbs133 (Kev) Highwayman (Phil) Paul can you give Adyr a txt, I don't have his number. Anyone else think of someone and I'll send out a few P.M.s just incase they don't read this part of the forum? Edit Edit. Truffle it might be a good opportunity for someone to have a look at her and maybe diagnose some of the clocks and knocks.

seems an ideal time for your 'friendly local coupe expert goons' to diagnose your problems..(that's us by the way )
what time and where then?

As Cooper is limited by work, how about meeting somewhere near him at 1.30 and then go on to the Red Lion at Horndean? Not sure what time they finish serving lunch, but I'm sure that they'll still be serving drinks and we can make use of their car park . Phil

Righty i now know that i AM working next sunday, but not till 6 or possibly 8PM. So i should be able to make this. I'm gonna ring the 'rents tomorrow and see if they would be so kind as to lend me some cash to get the car looked at before the meet. If they can then it'll just be a matter of how big a job the work is as to whether i'll be there in MY car or a Fiat Punto courtesy car

Right well just spoken to the 'rents and although i can borrow some money for the car it wont be for a couple of weeks so thats my plan scuppered. Barring any terminal problem i'll still come along but just be prepared to wince if you take a look under her or take a ride in her. (also can anyone bring axle stands and a trolley jack so that i really can get tha most out of some free technical advice while its available?) ((preferably BEFORE people start drinking in the pub ))

Forgot about this Phil is quite right, as I'm the only one who can't make it at anytime, I could call 007 or Adyr when i finish work and meet you all at the pub. If you do arrange to meet at 1400, I seem to remember every meet I've been to tend to hang around a couple of hours before we set off. So 1300 would be perfect!!!! my work is 5 mins away from sainsburys Hedge End and 15 mins away from Winchester tesco. Paul

So anyone in the area thats going to this meet, stop by here and we'll shimmy on up there. kb2133, i really dont know the area between Bomo and the M27 very well as all i do is drive in a straight line and it seems to get me where i need to go I'll PM my mobile number, give us a call from 11am onwards and we can try to sort something.

Sorry I couldn't hang around for the photoshoot guys, or though from the look of that centrefold shot, maybe I'm not ! Where was Becky then .... Glad you enjoyed the cross country blast back Webbo, they turned out to be pretty good roads that I found ! If you fancy a blast round the country lanes near me anytime, just PM me . Thanks to Chris for organising the afternoon. As has already been said, it was nice to meet everyone, both old and new . See you all again next time! Phil

Cheers everyone, had a very good day. Great fun listening to a train of coops roaring past you at speed. Ady, my plan had been to give you the bird and then zoooom off into the distance... didn't quite work!
