As we all seem to be getting on so well and many of the people that post here have asked me to I thought I would let you all know of the Essex/ Kent meet this month. Each month we take it in turns to share the event between the two regions. This month it is in Essex at the Halfway House on the A127 (peice of pie to get to) Next month it will be at Orpingtion in Kent at the Badgers Mount Pub near Pole Hill.. We have been alternatiing this event for many years.. All are welcome! It is normally very well attended. See this post at GSO for more details. http://www.granada-and-scorpio-online.com/forums/showthread.php?s=df6a54 1156d48371568493df97237f38&threadid=5454

Half Way House is a great pub - we normally have a bit to eat around 1ish. Dennis Clarke runs it for the Essex region - some of you will know him back in the days of the Granada Enthusiats Club. They bring some very nice MK2 Granadas to the meet. lots of Mk3s and a good share of Scorpios! All good fun.

Yeah, that's going to be a sad sight I was very nearly in the same boat though. I just popped out for 10 minutes and got cut up really badly by some old boy on a roundabout. How I avoided him, I'm not sure, but all being well we'll be arriving in one piece. I'll be easy to spot too. I'll be the one with the "geek sheet" in the window. It's just some info about the car I printed out. Maddy reckons I'm too sad for words

| Tiptronic? Didn't realise there was such a feature on those. I trust you've given it a good old test yourself Then again, I bet she's banned you from it.

Yo Craig.......... hows tricks m8y? Spose ive cooled off a bit . took the dog for a long walk and smoked millions of fags... LOL. As for your question ,your right. Lynn did pass her test in an auto. He car is fully automatic but there is "man mode" where you can knock the lever over to the right into sport mode and leave the gear ratio's as they are or use the lever to manuallly change gears. its fully sequential like a BTCC car..... HTH Cheers Nick
