Looks like a grand day out.
I nearly made it too - I've been on hols to Edinburgh, but it was too cold to go any further north so I've come back to a warmer country. :P
-
A classic day out. Thanks to DaveL and Hotel21 for the sightseeing tour of Scotland on the way there. Thanks to Jim for bringing the barby. Thanks to Kev for bringing his motor!
Some more pics...

Too many cooks...?

Quote of the day has to be.... Kev to his young daughter - "Come away from there! It's a volkswagen!"

It was a good day out, despite me missing the initial turn to get onto the correct road (daughter robbed me of my satnav and the wife's mapreading skills are approximatelty zilch....).
Then we had DaveL's Sally SatNav intent of taking us on a wonderous cross country tour - I knew the West Coast was indian country, but didn't know there were as many unsignposted waggon trails into the vast beyond.....
The way home was quicker, smother, wider and less stressfull... - and it eased the probs with the broken roll bar link rod that the deep pothole clamber caused on the way in!
Easy fix though....
Talked about the next meet.
How about the 'bus museum at Kelty?
B
-
Bus Museum would be a great place for a Cam Belt Party. They've even got a couple of garages you could fit an Omega in!
:y
-
How about that then, Baldrick, for a cunning plan???
Not the best of websites but we could probably sort out something as regards a (large) aircraft hanger to do work in as well as having a meet.... Also camping space with loos (no showers though) and in the middle of approximately nowhere, so noise of an evening is no problem.....
vintage bus museum (http://www.busweb.co.uk/svbm/Home.htm)
but with this (http://www.knockhill.com/) just 5 miles up the road??
with the assorted contacts we now know we have, could possibly sort something out?

Great idea. 20k miles before I need another cambelt change (approx 6 mths) but loads of other things I could use the space for...
Exhaust.... brake discs... oil change.... breathers... wishbones... etc.
Count me in.

Well done everyone, great idea for a cambelt party too :y
-
Damn I missed this one, ended up out on the Sunday night (well after partying in Newcastle on Friday and Edinburgh on Saturday I was on a roll) and I woke up still feeling a little drunk on Monday morning, hence my decision to stay away from the vehicles for a while!
Ho hum, I should've known that a bank holiday Monday would've been a bit hopeful for me, can't resist the lure of Sunday night clubbing, oh and I had some nice sensible chat with some nice chicas :D At least it wasn't a scorcher of a day like it was on Friday otherwise I'd have missed a great opportunity to show off my R1 ;)
Maybe next time... still looks like you had fun without me ::)

Hello,
Yes it's an Irmscher Front Airdam for the pre-facelift model's, it's avaliable from Vauxhall dealer's but it's very expensive, it's a one piece front bumper and includes the fog lights, try eBay :y

Kev telephone me last night for a last minute BBQ at the same location, then asked if I could bring my portable BBQ so he could have the last minute BBQ, Cheeky B******D ;D ;D
[size=16]This is what the weather should have been like ;)[/size]

Agreed, it's a great spot :y

Cheers, just googled them.
They are part of "Forest Holidays" ?
Their website demands a minium stay of 3 nights :(
On our trip it will be over night stay only.... maybe 2 nights. I will have to speak to the guys, I think 3 nights will be pushing it...
Quite cheap though, £38 for 3 nights for 3 people :)

Hi
Like all the photos sounds like a good meet! the irmscher pre facelift front bumper will cost you £1000 new so all i can say is keep your eyes peeled on ebay!
I am on my 5th omega and have been an irmscher nut for every one of them, there is so much that you can do to these old barges! ;)

Agreed, My omega now has the full Irmscher treatment, it took a long time and money to get but it's worth it :y

Ah Ha,
I noticed in the pics that some of you fellas there seemed to have modified front fog lights / bumpers on your cars . Am i correct ?
Ive got a GLS and ive been hunting (for ages) for a pair of fron fogs from a facelift CD or higher spec .
( The GLS has none :'( )
If any of the owners in these pics has a pair of the above for sale, please let me know !

Hello, well the facelift model with the irmscher front bumper belongs to kev and I think he sold the original front bumper from his car on ebay about a year ago with the foglights, sorry
