ChrisCumbria Driving as Daily Registered: 26/06/05 Posts: 23756 Loc: Whitehaven, Cumbria	Wellll, I know it will be a bit of a trek for me but I think I can just about stretch to travelling up for this one. Seriously it should be good, and just noticed thats easter bank holiday weekend as well, so should be a good chance for people to make it. _________________________

ChrisSussex Fiesta Nutter Registered: 30/05/05 Posts: 2048	yeh. i agree. well i have ALSO emailed the place back to see if we can have a separate group tour, so date might be different, but to get people's responses so we know numbers - as that will dictate if we get a private tour or not. So far then: I want x2 tix Chris Cumbria x1 PLEASE ADD NAMES to thread with number of tix req'd Oh - Alex and his mate want one so that is 5 so far....

ChrisSussex Fiesta Nutter Registered: 30/05/05 Posts: 2048	######## update ########## We can commandeer (soley for ST board people) a 'private' tour if there is about 15 or 20 of us, on 17th JUNE 2006. I thought this might be better, as it could be combined with the RALLY day at Castle Combe - I know this might suit Swiss Nick better in terms of travelling and I think it makes sense.. What do people think. Please post a reply with your preferred date and no. of tix required. C

Nick02 Registered: 19/02/05 Posts: 2608 Loc: Switzerland	I still need to double check and still not sure I could make it but April 15 sounds more feasable for me. I defenetly won't be able to make the June date as I'm tied up with a major company event for two weeks.

ChrisSussex Fiesta Nutter Registered: 30/05/05 Posts: 2048	Im a bit suprised. There are only 6 people interested so far, so Ill leave it a bit longer before booking, only thing is that if we dont book soon, places will go. Ill leave for one week then reassess!

ChrisCumbria Driving as Daily Registered: 26/06/05 Posts: 23756 Loc: Whitehaven, Cumbria	Yep, I'm a little surprised as well at the amount of interest shown. It will be a really cool meet. A rare chance to get to go round Fords WRC factory, see what goes on and to see the cars. Also a good chance for everyone to get some really nice pics taken of their cars. So anyone who would like to go please put their names down ASAP to help ChrisSuss get it booked, and then we can all start looking forward to it. Both dates are still quite some time away which should help people get time off to come up here. _________________________

If anyone's interested PM me. Sorry, should've offered earlier but only just occured to me that I'll be travelling all that way with 3 spare seats (4 passengers will be too cramped). _________________________

ChrisCumbria Driving as Daily Registered: 26/06/05 Posts: 23756 Loc: Whitehaven, Cumbria	No worries Gareth. I realise it is a long way for many people to travel up, and anything that can help people to come will be a great help. Hopefully this might get a bit of last minute extra interest. But anyone that hasn't put their name forwards yet who wishes to come PLEASE speak up now, thanks. _________________________

I'll bring my laptop if needed so people don't have to worry about their memory cards. As you may guess I'm looking forward to this meet. _________________________

Don't go TOO close to to the bottom of that pic though, or we might get a bit wet. Seriously it would be great to get everyones cars lined up along the harbourside, and I know a great spot for getting that lake at the back of the pic into the background. Lets pick out the highlight of that piccy though: _________________________

Lol good point actually. Whilst it obviously great to get some nice shots taken, that will just be a good bonus, shouldn't forget the main reason for people coming up in the first place!! It will be really good getting to see everything thats goes on there, and to see not just the current cars but some of the historic rally cars as well. _________________________

ChrisSussex Fiesta Nutter Registered: 30/05/05 Posts: 2048	OK then. LAST CALL.. Responses I have are: Me (of course) + 1. Swiss Nick (kinda sound like a gangster or someone out of Lock Stock lol) Scotty Gareth Chris(Cumbria) Alex + 1 6 chaps / ladies (assorted) who own RS200's That's 14 of us so should be a great weekend. Small problem MIGHT be numbers, as the guy at Rallytravel said there were only 11 spaces on the AM tour and 9 on the PM tour - so whether we are happy to split up on the day?? PLEASE LET ME HAVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS. Cost is £35.00 each. This is going to be £490.00..... not being tight or anything and I do trust people, but it's a hell of a lot of money and it needs to be paid up front... So we can do one of two ways: a.) You pay me (somehow - erm bank transfer would be preferred) b.) I 'book' it with M-Sport and tell them that everyone will call them up same day and pay over the dog and bone. What do people prefer? Re travelling up, I'll of course get Nick from Gatwick on the way, am planning on stopping over in Birmingham to break the journey up then Fri night and Sat night at hotel nearish to M-Sport (well as close as is do-able) then another stop in Birmingham en route back. What are other people thinking? Cos Im not really online too regularly now, can everyone email me to confirm their agreement with splitting up AM / PM tours and re payment etc. DO NOT EMAIL ME SPAM, my work's server will block it, but don't be a muppett please Email: E-mail Removed Please Contract FiestaRS via PM SCOTTY / MODS - when this is all sorted and I've posted to confirm all is arranged, can someone please DELETE this message so as my email address isn't forever on here. Cheers chaps (and ladies). Edited by FiestaRS (15/02/06 03:29 PM)

Hoping to get the order in soon for a Colorado, bog standard (bar for iPod socket). I've been to M-Sport twice (once with RS OC, once with TeamFordracing.net (phew that takes me back...), and i must say that if you can make it, do it, you definitely won't regret it. The design and manufacture rooms,together with the test workshops and main workshop itself are absoultely stunning. Couple of pics below. If i can get delivery of my by then, and there's still room, i'll put my name down for sure...!!!

ChrisCumbria Driving as Daily Registered: 26/06/05 Posts: 23756 Loc: Whitehaven, Cumbria	Just something I thought I should maybe remind people of. Obviously I'm not sure what stage everyone is with regard to getting accomadation sorted that weekend, but with it being Easter bank holiday weekend the area will get busy so just thought I should remind everyone not to wait till the last minute before getting a hotel booked. I wouldn't want to see anyone having problems with this. Thanks Chris _________________________

Yep no worries Amanda, can easy fit some more photos in. I enjoy taking them so would be happy to take some more on the Sunday! _________________________

Its 41.25miles from Whitehaven and 1hour 12minutes journey time. TBH I'm a little surprised as well that they've gone for that, especially given the Whitehaven ones closer to m-sport as well. I'm not sure which one exactly they've gone for since theres three travel inns in carlisle, all fairly close to the M6, but unless its the northern one in Kingstown (so a little way out) then should take a litle less than that to travel - unless its busy it takes me about 50 mins to an hour to get to Warwick Road in Carlisle (which is where one of the other travel inns is at). _________________________

Gareth Fiesta Nutter Registered: 22/07/05 Posts: 2274 Loc: NW London	It was MrSussex, he made me book there, it's the travel lodge on the M6 services (Southwaite), I'll look into rebooking now, is Travel Ins Whithaven Howgate the closest? _________________________

ChrisCumbria Driving as Daily Registered: 26/06/05 Posts: 23756 Loc: Whitehaven, Cumbria	Arr I know where you mean now. Yep, the Howgate is closer. Its just 12 miles from M-sport and obviously its right outside Whitehaven which is where we shall be meeting up on the Sunday. _________________________
