NANO MEETS 2019 ( Join Us ) On 16th & 17th March
 

Hello all members /owners.
It is a great pleasure to announce we have succeeded in obtaining the field at the Four Ashes again this year, after a new tenant as taken over (Doug) a big thank you to him for letting us continue our meets there.

Our First Nano meet of the year is March starting Saturday 16th & Sunday 17th 2019.

At our usual venue the Four Ashes Public House.

You are all welcome to attend so hopefully we will see quite a few of you at the first meet of the year, you can find our calendar on our nano forum, the link is also at the bottom by my signature.

There is free camping on Friday 15th and Saturday 16th March for those that want it, either bring your tent, caravan or sleep in the car.

Also there are plenty of local B&Bs/ hotels at reasonable prices, details on the links page of our website below for those that do not fancy camping.

There maybe a full English breakfast with tea/coffee on both Saturday & Sunday mornings 10.00, this as of yet not been established we will announce this closer to the day if not, this due to the fact it is the first meet of 2019 under the new tenant and we need to see how it goes for us.

There will still be a choice of a Saturday evening meal if you wanted to join in the social part of the Saturday evening, later orders for the evening meal should be around 19.00pm again we will announce this nearer the time.


As always there will be advice & help for those jobs you would like to tackle and have not got round to, we also have free T4 sessions sometimes we have two T4 which helps cut down the waiting time.

I will be carrying the usual free plenum spy hole mod trays, intercooler bends with added Viton O-rings, Viton coolant cap O-rings, Inline stats, PCV filters, Shannon tubes, amongst other items etc.

Also at the first meet I will have about three ( Manifold EGR MAP sensor )change overs ready diesel cars only, you would need to Pm if you would like one of these.

All the best & hope to see you there Arctic.

I might be the second unit on site on the Friday for sure

Thanks Steve I’m in both days

Hope to catch up with folks:}


Woolleysox

Depending on Marina being free will dictate if it is one or both days for us :)

Possible, will try.
 

Hello, I'll try to get the weekend off work but it will be difficult as I've already requested April 13th for the Longbridge meet up which I've priotised.

I'm coming from the east Midlands so won't require accommodation as I'd only stay during the day but I would be interested in the mentioned 19:00 meal on the Saturday.

I'm very keen to meet some other 75 owners before Longbridge in April & see their cars/show off mine.

Regards, Matty.

Hope you can make Saturday, would love you to give the Tee's VIS motors the once over! :)

As stated on the Nano site, I'm in :D

I'm back from holiday on the Saturday so assuming I'm not too tired from the late flight I hope to make the Sunday meeting.

I'll be there as usual Steve

though it could be interesting with 2 cars to drive :eek:

[QUOTE]]

Hi Richard
Welcome maybe bring some of the good weather back with you;)

Hi Cliff.
One on the Saturday & the other on the Sunday :D or get one of your lads to drive one

Blackie Sat so he can meet Blue! :D:p:

Done deal Dawn

All we need now is Bones :D

Somebody mention Bones? ;)

I did

have you sorted out the coma problem

It's in the garage now. Hopefully he can get it working by bypassing the starter motor.

Hope all goes well :D

Hope she can come see us at the nano! Although she's already met blackie and "Blue" as Paul parked next to her with it once when we were visiting mum!

Well it turns out it was just the starter motor, so don't rule her out yet. ;)

Just to confirm, other commitments mean we will be there on Sunday only :) ( Sorry Dawn )
But at least we can make it :D

Nice one Dave :D

I'll make sure I've got your tubes for Sunday :D

Hi Dave.
Any day is a good day for the owners whom attend if Mr Vis can make it :bowdown: also the crew as well cheers Steve.

A certain white vehicle may still yet make it to the NANO.

Watch this space.......

Good to know Dave :D

All the best with the rebuild :D

I am sure I will catch you again. If T4 is there and my vis are naughty there is always the post! ☺

Fingers crossed David and apologies for passing on my rotten luck!

No need to apologise Dawn, I'm yet to come even close to the amount of bad luck dad's had with his cars.

P. S I found a ginormous great screwdriver in the boot - do you want it back?

I’ll try and pop along on either day just to say hello.

Hi Bob.
More than welcome will it be in the banana if you are unable to make it we have six meets per year ;)

It would be Redfive making the trip. Banana will be off of the road for 5 weeks from the beginning of March. Lots of TLC in the body shop.

Looking forward to meeting you Bob , pity you won't have Banana with you :D

We have 20 confirmed so far and we still have 4.5 weeks to go so hopefully that will have doubled by then, as we usually have owners turn up from other forums, remember everyone is welcome to attend :}

Don't forget to reserve a space for the 3 Musketeers!

(Yes, she lives again!)

Duncan whom is our main T4 operator, I am informed as initially hinted on being there for the both days but will give 100% confirmation more near the date 16th March.

As always if he attends please add your name & reg number to the white board just inside the events tent.

I would be interested in T4 just as a check but if there are people there needing faults sorted happy to wait for another time. This first meet is gonna be massive I think! ☺

Get there early Dawn :D

Mean and Blackie both need a T4 :bowdown:

Blackie had a T4 when I got him. Phil Davies did it. Definitely be a flat battery code on it now though as I had to replace it last year! My main priority is to get the tyre protectors on. Lights, T4 and anything else are a bonus! If I can get the new plinth washers out the boot lid with sewermans magnet Id appreciate any tips how to not drop them again hahaha!

Was Bones ever T4'd?

Just need to change some dealer options on Blackie and health check Mean :bowdown:

Yes, several times! Duncan at the nano, and she spat her dummy out and took ages to talk, Trikey had her on T4, not sure about the Rover garage at Ridding either!

Ok guy & gals, confirmation on the T4 Duncan as kindly given hi services for the two days :bowdown: so white board will be in action next to the donation box cheers Arctic. ;)

Saturday 16th for me and mine (wife and ZT) thanks. Chris.S

Hi Chris.
Welcome I have added you to the attendance list on the Nano forum below ;)

http://www.midlandsnanomeets.co.uk/f...4&p=7134#p7134

hi steve, i'm down to come on 16th maybe both if poss, have booked a couple of small jobs, only made 1 last year due to clutch problems, but done now so hope to make more this year:}

Hi Jonno.
Great to hear you have your clutch problems sorted, I have taken a look on the Nano forum job needed section and I see that Rob as answered you and he as updated the attendance record, so yes see you on the Saturday cheers Arctic. ;)

thanks steve, iv'e been back in the forum but cannot find the reply from rob but don't navigate the forum too well:D but if you've seen it then I know it's there, thank you sir.

Hi Jonno
Yes Rob moved it to the jobs section from the attendance section, 16th Saturday or maybe both, I have the inline stats already made up, if you do not already have one.

Hi all,

Although I don't have a roadworthy 75 at the moment I'm hoping to pop along on Saturday.

Won't have the polishing kit with me though as I'll only have an hour or so free.

Andy

Look forward to meeting you again Andy. Hope you can get one of them sorted.

Ok so this is the last alert for our first meet on the year, only 3 days to go, as always anyone is welcome to visit us starts about 09.30 am up to 17.00pm both days the 16th & 17th March. cheers Arctic.

hi steve I do have a stat but would anyone have a spare hose just in case as wouldn.t like to be stuck if the worst happened:eek::D jonno

Hope the weather report changes. My phone is showing heavy rain and gusts around 40mph! :(

Don't worry about the weather Dawn :eek:

It's family reunion time :D

I know butvos it safe to jack blue up for his tyre protectors in that wind!:eek:

It'll get sorted

the winds are subsiding down here

Forecast still looks awful! I am supposed to be bringing some mirrors for LeRich, but I'm not sure I fancy torrential rain and 40mph winds. Will have to see what its like on the morning!

i'll still be there on Sunday :)

good man, good old Yorkshire grit !

I have a feeling I will still appear to get drowned hehehe....fingers crossed it improves. I can cope with rain. Just worried about trying to work in these winds!

I will see a few of you later today around 16.15-16.30pm Tourer is already packed with my first lot of items to be dropped off events tent, white board, wooden ramps, square blocks for jacking up on, blue plenum bag, wind is fairly low, and I think the sun may raise it's head a bit later :}

Expecting to be there just after 10 at the moment! :)

Hi guys not going to make this one now. I was worried about the weather but then then found my enginectray hanging off, been awake half the night with a poorly doggie, and now Sharron can't make it. I think fate is telling me something! Nothing urgent to do apart from the tray so will try again next time!

No worries Dawn. If it's any consolation I've taken some photo for you so you'll be able to see Bones flying the flag for the 3 B's. 😎

Hi Dawn,
You probably made a wise decision not coming to the Nano despite your unfortunate circumstances, it has been very cold and windy there (Saturday).
Have you heard from LeRich regarding the towing mirrors? If he wants them that's fine but if he doesn't and you're prepared to hang on to them till the next Nano I'll still take them, PM me if that's ok.

Thanks,

Martyn

Windy today but rain kept off until late on so not as bad as expected and forecast much better for Sunday

Sorry not able to attend this weekend, I’ll make an effort to attend a bit later in the year.

Well first meet of the year started today, even though it was quite windy and rather cool turn out was good I counted 26 cars at one stage, quite a few jobs got done, PCV filters, manifold changes, angel eye lights fitted, inline stats, lots of banter and good chats, hopefully tomorrow will be better weather wise, and a few more turn out, T4 is present tomorrow all the best and big thank you for those that came Arctic. :}

A good first day of the year day but as Steve said windy but at least the rain stayed away until late in the day so we got a fair bit done.

Forecast better tomorrow so come on down !

No wind and clear blue skies this morning should be a cracking day , see you all later:}:}

A good turnout yesterday all things considered.

I'll be heading down to join you later.

On my way to join you for a couple of hours.



Lovely day for it.
