Any thoughts about another F owners gathering this year?

[B1RMA]

After the gathering last year which had a decent turnout any thoughts for this year? I was thinking if maybe more central UK like OXFORD way for a venue would suit those located a bit further up the country

Plenty room at my place for at least 50 cars.. but unfortunately im way up North 38mls from INVERNESS 😂….but it would be a good drive up with stunning scenery then a drive around the NC500 👍🏻

central enough for ya 😆

Thanks might be too much of a drive from the South Coast though.

I have posted on Pistonheads Regions asking for a car friendly pub around the Oxford area.

Sounds amazing and better than meeting in some car park down South, staring at each other's cars and asking "Ooooooo - what exhaust have you got fitted?"  😁 

I've done Scotland twice in the last few months. Epic place! Never taken a Lexus up there however........

[BillNick]

I'd love an excuse to bomb it up to yours @mr2lad - perhaps I dont need one? lol

Oxford will be perfect however.

Is there anything car related in that area - that will have a large car park? Hmmm

I'll stick an F badge on the LS... 😂

All it makes me think of is this instagram reel of a guy looking at an old X3 and it is literally decked with M badges wherever one would fit, even under the window switches. Had me in stitches as his Russian (I think) accent and over pronounciation of power as 'Powwwa' is gold.

Maybe the money tree will sprout by the time the meet is organised and I'll have an F again 😞

[B1RMA]

I've had a few replies from people on Pistonheads of car friendly pubs around the Oxford area that I will check out the web sites. 

I'm guessing breakfast then a bit of lunch.

[BillNick]

Sounds good to me David. Hopefully can attract a few more members with it being North of London this time.

Excellent and it may give us all an opportunity to compare exhausts.

[BillNick]

I am looking forward to showing off my orange calipers, +50bhp you know!

However, I still have my stone chip (boooooo)

No dates as of yet but it may be a good idea to see what dates suit people. I have had information about two pubs that sound promising, obviously well outside Oxford who like Brighton hate cars.

[DavidCM]

It's a bit further up north than Oxford,but consider the Motor Museum at Gaydon,just off the M40.Plenty of parking,catering etc and a selection of British cars,even a few of them are interesting.

[MarkHB]

Love my new RC F, would be great to meet up with other owners. Look forward to hearing further details, I would be travelling from Cheltenham.

[BillNick]

Welcome to the fold.

Won’t be far for you to travel.

[James605]

I'd be up for coming to a meet, as a new F owner it would be good to have a chat with other owners. I'm Surrey/West Sussex but happy to travel a bit, hopefully it falls on my weekend off 👍

[B1RMA]

Thanks for replies and interest.

Can I just ask if a Saturday or Sunday is favoured. Would say June be a good month for planning ahead

[BillNick]

Saturday/Sunday can depend on the weekend in question.

Perhaps Sunday being as most car shows are also on Sundays? (I am thinking about when I tell my wife haha)

[Jgtcracer]

Oxford is a bit of a trek for me, probably going to struggle.  Shall we have a seperate “actually north” meeting?!?

[Pielight]

Oxford is good for me (Peterborough based). Im from Newcastle and visit family so may be able to do a North one too!

Suggest doing a doodle poll or similar to get a date that suits as many as possible.

Great idea

Perhaps the forum has that function?

If you don't mind a very quiet RC300h F-sport joining you again I'd like to join in for the morning/day just so I can record all the exhaust sounds from the F's and play it back on some speakers fitted under the 300h.

Only joking with the last bit. 😏
