 sorry but we weren't as hard as the other 3 floppy top owners, went home with the top well and truly nailed shut.

What is it with the floppy tops….January and the hoods down  8O , glad to see you've had a good turn out today, get some photos up. Our Dannyd from Chester/Wrexham meet had his hood down all day today, we managed 6 mk1's and a lovely Scirrocco Storm photos…….

We may have looked hard with the roof down but we only live 10 minutes away!

Some pics Chris took.

Hi it was nice to meet you lot today, will definitely try and make the next meet! sorry but we weren't as hard as the other 3 floppy top owners, went home with the top well and truly nailed shut.

Mick and Rach
PS is someone going to post the pic's they took cos i forgot my camera like a dougy!

we left the pub with top DOWN thanks
fantastic meet today here are some pics.





























in this next pic this member of the public seems to be taking a professional interest in Ash's mk1 think he wanted to have a crush on it  



Here we see ash running on slicks  8O  8O

i like that rolling shot on the M62, it looks sweet. especially with the '77 series one in full view.

good pics soapy.
you not only humiliate me with the srcap man picture, defile my legality with my "road legal" semi-slicks and put my victorian-esque moustashe-pork chop combi in public view!!!

lol

 :doh:

awesome pics from everyone,, SCRAPMAN; got your number

great pics there, was nice to meet everyone

mk1's off the road for a bit again now      

clutch cable has pulled through the bulkhead

Good photos, certainly looks like a good turnout and love the photo taken on the motorway.  How far did you go in the convoy and where did you end up? not that I know much of the area, just curious  :mrgreen:

And this photo has got to be a contender for the 2009 calender
 :lmao:  :lmao:

we didn't really go very far, just one junction from the services, then back up the other way one junction.

then on some very nice windy roads to a pub

we went from the services on m62 to the topside of Huddersfield to a very nice boozer for din dins we changed a load of tables round to fit us altogether it looked like they had the bailiffs in as tables and chairs being taken from all over the pub
was a really good meet enjoyed every min and the sun came out so for a short time on way home had roof down :cheer:

great pictures from all ,just don't capture the wind. It was that strong it blew tread off tyres   hope to see you all again  mick and janet

yeah nice pub, busy. and a longer cruise would have been nice. maybe next time…

Great turnout lads! Nice to see so many Mk1s out and on the roads in January. We (Chester & Wrexham) certainly turned a few heads today, I bet you did too, especially the yellow one!

Looks like you guys had fun as well!  8)

We will look to meet up and hopefully get 19 mk1's together plus a rocco!

Looks like a decent turn out, good effort peeps. Some very tidy motors too. Hopefully see you all at the next one!

Looks a nice little gathering. It's a bit of a trek but I may pop along to the next one if I'm free. When is it ?

It looks like it was a really good meet, and the yellow one looks sweet.

I recognise that scrapman, I used to work up at a petrol station in York and he used to come in all the time, he's an Irish 'traveller' off James Street.

He's well funny but proper sound.

I'll try make it to the next meet, we should be on the road from this weekend.  8)
