Maybe the Tidworth one is better as a working meet?

If you are going maybe you could point me in the right direction on my thermostat James?

Cheers,

Ian

I'm up for this - a Thursday evening meet would suit me fine, Saturdays are harder to clear with the war office..

Works for me, I've got next week off.  Mucho car cleaning and servicing will be done...but mainly on my two old Cavaliers  :o

I will bring the Omega along though...

Anyone else welcome of course.

How about 6pm ish?

Through Woolhampton on past the roundabout at Aldermaston, past a caravan place on your left then you come to some dual carriageway - only about a half a mile long.  Max's is on the other carriageway next to a place that sells Fiesta's.
Probably best to go to the end of the dual carriageway and find a safe place to do a U turn. Then when you ae heading back aim to pull off at Berks Fiesta Centre and its immediately afterwards.

Can draw you a map tonight but its not difficult.

Cheers

Chris, if you're going straight from Greenham Park I can find you there and we can have ourselves a little 'Mega convoy if you like  ;D

Being in the South, I would pop along but Thursday nights are out for me I am afraid. :( Hope all goes well though.

Slightly off topic (sorry) but do you have any more info on your two old Cavaliers?  Year model etc?  Having a Cav myself, just interested.  Mine is a M reg CDX.  Everything works, including the Air Con. 132K on the original clutch.  Still runs and drives beautifully.

I'm up for it.

There's a cracking little transport cafe not far from M4 J12  if that sort of thing sounds appropriate.

Cheers,

Ian

Total newbie here, joined yesterday. But, yep, as I live not five mins from M4 J12, maybe a chance to meet, get some expertise from folks, find out what all those switches do on the Omega I got testerday! (Where's than manual?!) Anyone got a date/time yet, and where?

No worries.  Cavalier number 1 is a 1984 1.6GL saloon in silver green, last of the first version of the Mk2 (if that makes sense) on an A-plate.  I bought this from the second owner (the father-in-law of the first owner) back in March, the old boy is 97 and his daughter thought it was time for him to hang up his driving gloves!  115k miles, good solid condition too - needs a good polish, but the only rust was in the nearside front wing.  I say 'was' because I have replaced it with a new one, just needs a bit of fettling to fit perfectly (pattern part!) and then spraying.



Cavalier number 2 is a 1993 1.6LS hatchback, bought cheap (like sub-£60 cheap!) from eBay because the fella had listed it in 'Parts and workshop manuals'...with 10 months' MOT and 4 months' tax!  This will be getting a damn good clean, a set of wheeltrims fitted (not Halfrauds jobs!), a full service and then probably into the Freeads to help pay for more Omega fettling...



Paintwork is flatter than a witches' chest and it needs napalming inside to get rid of the stains.  Drives nice but idles high - needs the breathers clearing I think!

No more Cavaliers for me, or any other cars for the moment for that matter...no more space!

Bryan - I think it's this Thursday (10th) at 6pm - I'm sure "ians" will confirm!

Hi Bryan and welcome!

Its Thursday evening - not sure if we set a time yet - watch this space...
At Max's cafe on the A4 on the dual carriageway bit towards Newbury.

Cheers
