Hi

the meet sounds good to me, I'm an avid 480 lover and have had 4 in the past 2 1.7es's and 1 turbo auto my first was an f reg in white with major probs, that died

so I got a D reg in absolute mint cond, I was the 2nd owner it was awsome sailed through all mot's, it was great, then I had a Turbo auto in paris blue with full leather it was the love of my life, but lost my job so I couldn't afford to run her anymore it was a heart breaking thing to sell her on

so I'm on the hunt again for another Turbo (maybe buying one next week if all goes well), so I'd love to meet up with some of you who share same interest.
do you know of any dates that would be good or is it just wait and see what happens first?
I'll be around hopefully with new one end of month beg of May if thats any good - leaves plenty of time to try and get more interest from others!!!
let me know
