  1. Looking at the link there is much more than traction engines, this looks like a fantastic day out for your families. if any of you decide to visit in your kit cars for a get together and day out why not post some pictures on Facebook to show what ‘we’ get up to.

  6. Hi All, You have seen the details regarding the Newark Kit Car Festival being held this weekend (see the separate event notification for details) This event has been absent for 13 years, the weather should be good this weekend (ever the optimist!) so why not have a run down and a fantastic day/ weekend out. I am sure if this event is supported then along with Stoneleigh we will have two great shows to look forward to in years to come. I am planning on travelling down on one of the days (yet to be confirmed) is anyone else going? Let us know your intentions. Have fun Darrell
  7. Hi, I am planning on coming down on one of the days this weekend and was wondering how it works re parking at these shows, is it general parking or do we park as clubs/ types of kit cars etc with a few show cars on the stands shown above?
  8. Hi, I have purchased wet weather gear this morning, closer to home, good luck with selling your gear, I am sure it will go

  11. Hi, really interested in buying the set of wet weather gear to make my 2B more usable, would like to see before I commit, I could pop down on Sunday would this be OK?
  12. Hi, it is all weather dependant for me, a long trip and no roof, but deffo planning on coming down for one of the days. Is anyone willing to suggest which is the best day to go or do they have the same stalls, shows, activities etc?, ta

  14. Hi All, Great run out the The Corner House Meets at Charity Fam, Wrightington, over 100 cars in attendance, bacon butties and a brew, kicking tyres with like minded people, what a fab morning. (check it out on Facebook for more pictures) Now I'm not an expert in recognising types of cars but there were TVR's, Ferraris, Porsches, Cobra replicas, MG's from yesteryear, a nice JBA Falcon, a lovely blue GTM, minis, rally liveried cars, a gorgeous 1991 RS Escort, an XR2, a Datsun Cherry (couldn't see any rust ) and a tractor! (I have missed a load I am sure. A couple of piccies attached along with my pick of the Porsche bunch. They hold these meets first Sunday of every month, no cost to enter, surely if you live in the NW this should be on your radar, see you all next month. Darrell

    Sad News

    RIP Ivan, I have only been a member for a short period but he answered my questions and offered guidance about local garages and resources, never met him a pity sounds like a great guy.
  20. Hi All, Are there any car meets/ shows/ events in your locality that we could use as a base and a "meet up" for the NW RHOCar members? All seems to have gone quiet in the NW area! A member mentioned previous area meets at the Phantom Winger, Broughton. Thoughts on setting this up again or perhaps another venue? Ideas and comments welcome. I don't mind doing a bit of groundwork to get things going but don't want to be on my own. I look forward to hearing from you. Darrell
  21. more fun to drive it back
  22. My 2B has just passed its MOT on a visible smoke test only as no values are recorded on the V5. I am running a 2litre SOHC with 38DGAS carb.

    Number application

    my last correspondence with DVLA was via 'online chat', I found this useful and gave me an exact path to follow, may save some time and angst as to where exactly to send to, just a thought and you can save the conversation just in case.
  24. Thanks for the reply, things have changed and had to cancel this trip, here's to next year
