    Northern meet - 5/6 May

    Hi David Sorry I can't make the event or Newby this year, but I've sold the 4200 Spyder to an Aussie who is in the process of shipping it over there! After 4 years of ownership I just fancied a change and have acquired a 90's TVR V8. All car enthusiasts need to own one of these at some point...

    cars in the park

    Looks like I will have to travel in convoy with my daughter in her lime green 70's Escort with lowered suspension (probably collapsed), so I will go straight there. Looks like only 4 Masers booked in so far. I'll head for the Italian flag area.

    Sharnbrook Supercar Sunday Sept 3

    This doesn't seem to be a popular event with forum members but if anyone wants to attend you will have to email Ciro to get a space. I've booked a spot, but he is limiting certain marques to 5 cars of each make probably to allow more room for the Lambo crowd. Chris

    cars in the park

    I've booked my ticket David, now that the Spyder is back on the road. Hoping to avoid deers on the way there. Chris

    Sportstars in the Park, Newby Hall 2017

    Hi Mike - yes I know I'm not very communicative on the forum, it must be some form of anti-social behaviour! Strange coincidence of a feature on the number of deer on the roads on our local TV station yesterday. They suggested to slow down if you see one in the road. Who would have thought of...

    Sportstars in the Park, Newby Hall 2017

    Hi Sparkplug The Spyder has gone today to MSM-refinishers in Winterton. It's owned and operated by the Joyce brothers Steve and Matt. It's got a good reputation and useful for me to keep tabs on the car's progress. Once it has been fully assessed today I'll bring it home until the parts arrive...

    Sportstars in the Park, Newby Hall 2017

    Thanks for the kind words guys. The deer I hit was apparently a muntjac (whatever that is). Needs a bumper, grille, o/s side and headlamps, all of which are apparently available new according to Graypaul. It is thus now in the hands of my insurer. Pity I economised on the premium by having an...

    Italian car and motorcycle event - 5 June.

    Thanks for organising the Vulcan day and lunch David. A great day out had by all. We may need it to fly again in July if we go to war with Europe. Got the Spyder going now with a new battery. Sorry to come in a Z4 but I least I parked away from the Tridents. See you at Newby in June 1...

    Auto Italia Midlands Car Events

    Hi guys I am likely to take my Spyder to the Stanford Hall event. Will there be an enclosure for Maseratis or would we just park up with the rest of the general public? Regards Chris N

    Northern maserati meet

    Hi guys, probably way too short notice, and not an 'event' anyway, just that I (+wife) will be lunching at Muskham Ferry just north of Newark off the A1 on Sunday 1st from midday. Not essential to book apparently (although we have) so rapid decisions not necessary unless dozens turn up and it...
