Birmingham's 2 and a half hours from me. Where ever we go is going to be a bit of a travel for everyone.

Anyone know the show calender for next year? Maybe get a club stand at one of those instead of driving 3 hours to meet in a cold car park for a while?

Yeh i reckon a show would be a better option,will give us a chance to get numbers up too.

Not to mention Nottingham way is looking close to a 8 hour round trip for us southerners myself and perkins.

8 Hour round trip!! Fooook... Hardly worth it to stand in a car park..

Club stand for next year does sound good.

I'm up for a stand. Miles better option than freezing my socks off in a car park I don't know with strangers, haha.

You could wear a big warm jacket? We're not dogging... or are we...?

I'm sure that could be arranged....

But in all seriousness... A show next year sounds the best idea! Summer is coming to an end too, so dark nights will be coming in soon

Iye show probably would be better in fairness, if we all lived within a 50 miles of each other then the car park idea would be fine but its probably best making a day of it and at a show would be ideal. Dont want to be told off by the Tesco trolley boy for crowding up the car park.

Alex can give us the show dates & locations for next year then we can pick one which suits us all.

Be better for the forum that way, a decent turnout.

Show wins thats for sure,it makes more sense.

My car would have never done so many miles in a day if Derby was the final place lol.

Makes me jealous everytime I look at your progress thread and see how little miles it has done.
Wish my GTI had less than 40K on the clock, mines nearly reaching the 70K milestone.

It hit 68,000 today in town

Ben

Mines on 113k...

Boys your making me jealous!

They are good for 200K if they are well looked after so theres plenty of life left in her dude
I think the average mileage for a GTI these days is about 80-85K.

113 still isnt many miles per year though, 11,300 on average which is nothing really.

Im just about to hit 96k on the GTI, and 130k on the mk3. They just keep going

Indeed. When I have a chance, Ill get next years show dates up and we can sort something

We could possibly do a meet early nov/dec time at a weekend earlier in the morning then all go and have lunch together at a decent pub or similar?

Sounds good to me!

I would be interested too depending on location
