Great group picture, sorry I couldnt make it in the end. I sold my RS4 on Monday so I had no way of getting to this gathering. Looks like a I missed a great opportunity to take alook at various RS6's and to get owners perspective of ownership.

Great evening was certainly had by me, sorry I had to dash off but I needed to rescue my mother in law who was baby sitting and the London Pride was going down too well and more was wanted. Alas!

Scotty, that car of yours is amazing and all of us non-modded owners I think have been looking at our bank balances today wondering if and when the stage 3 mod is possible.

Great turn out, cracking lads, cracking cars and cracking pub... nice one Bob!

Was running low on fuel, so thought I should go as fast as I could before I ran out! :wink: :D

I thought for a moment that you were going to fly past me right at that camera on the A43 :shock: Thankfully we were all driving within the national limit for the whole journey so there was nothing to worry about!

Couldn't resist having a bit of fun with a motorbike on the M1 for a good few junctions, although I dropped off when it was raining heavilly as the nutter kept on going and I could never forgive myself if he had come off in the wet at speed.

Good laugh yesterday, the look on those guys faces in the A3 was a picture in itself!!! Although I completely forgot there was loads of stuff that I wanted to check out in others peoples cars like the RNS-E etc...

Really peeved that I couldn't make it last night...would have added another Misano RS4 to the line-up. Next time

Any chance of making it a regular "last Wednesday in the month" or something?

Sorry I haven't posted but only just got in .

I've got to say cheers to Bob for sorting the evening out and for sending me in the right direction to my home.

Fantastic sight all the RS6'S and the one RS4 which still looked blinding (got to love that Misano)


Has anyone been thinking of pimping their ride a bit more?
