Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by gost on Mar 18th, 2008, 7:37pm Hello everyone, never been to a meet before, so was thinking of giving iot a go! What is the forma t? do we all have to be show cars? mine is bog standard 2.3 ultima which iv had since november. Bit worried about the jouney, probably 5 hours from London, already been on back of AA truck twice!! Any tips gratefully accepted |
||
Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by Simmo on Mar 18th, 2008, 7:48pm Gost, I travelled up from Sussex last year for the first time stayed at a Travelodge on the way as you need to be there by 8am to avoid the rush. Had a great day and put some names to faces. Really good atmosphere and my car, as yours, is a standard estate which had a wash before it went. The great thing is to meet the guys and gals who previously have only been names on a site. Mine was a five hour journey as you suggest. If you want to get a taste try one of the local meets such as the Kent meet at the end of March. Details on the site. ;) |

Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by scorpio_man on Apr 17th, 2008, 8:37am hi there **update** Annie has said she was happy to do it, and I think it still makes sense with us being local, but if anyone else wants to take over, perhaps in the longer term that will be fine with us. We will assume Anne unless we hear a definite otherwise. I'm not sure how difficult it will be to include all three groups but do like the idea of a joint effort at the very least we could get sites next door to each other which could work well. Do you have any contact details for the right people to talk to in these other two groups it's a while since I met them down at that fabulous 100 plus car Granada/Scorpio do in Northamptonshire. Anyone reading this who is interested in Harewood, (see meetings on web site if you don't know what it is) please send usual details to anigriffin@NTLworld.com please put Harewood in the subject line and include your address for us send tickets. No money required at this time please (we usually pay on a day, hopefully Andy's got the right date as we haven't heard officially from Harewood yet will chase them) Hope you're keeping well and that we see you at Harewood in two months time. Best regards Richard could you also add if you are fordscorpio.co.uk, scorpiounleashed.org.uk or g&s online.com, in case we need to contact you using the admin for each site, in a hurry. can someone post this to scorpio unleashed for me. i tried contacting shez, but i'm not sure if she got or not. regards andrew |

Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by martin_rowe on Apr 17th, 2008, 8:53am Would love to attend, though may not be a scorpio owner by then, though could come in the works van (scorp est) if wife feels like 'slumming' it. |

Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by Snoopy on Apr 17th, 2008, 2:28pm I will be there in my new FORD ( Volvo) which I will hide away ... IF you lot will let me IN ... ;) |

Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by sector-9 on Apr 22nd, 2008, 11:02pm I'll let your Folvo in if you let my Daewoo (and if you bring a towrope for when it won't start) ::) Seriously though, I wonder how many non-Scorpios will be turning up in the future, and if they (Harewood) will disallow us as "exhibitors" if the trend continues?

Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by Baz on Jun 16th, 2008, 9:50am I went out the back way; the way they sent us back in 2005. All the gates were open and I just sailed out There were loads of cars queing up as well. Best to go out that way as you don't get caught in the lines of the paying public all wanting to get out!! Mind you there was only me, Richard/Anne and Brian left!! Good day, not as good a turn out as the last time I was there in 2006 but still good to put names to faces. Thanks to Simmo for fetching the Corsair bumper.... now if I can only get him to pick up that bootlid.... I'm sure mrs Simmo won't mind!! Thanks to everyone and I will put some pictures up a bit later Baz |

Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by grandadman on Jun 16th, 2008, 6:57pm It was our real pleasure meeting everyone and putting faces etc to the on-line ID. A special shout must go out to Andy a.k.a scorpio_man who caried out a very valued OBD-2 scan of my 24Valve Cosworth the re-assurance I received was priceless! b.t.w. I didn't buy anybody an icecream as promised - Shame on me 8) Thank you Anne and Richard for your seamless organisation :D We look forward to meeting you all next year - God willing !! Finally, a big thank you to all on the www.fordscorpio.co.uk website. It was nice to meet the man in charge Snoopy. ;) THIS (http://www.x100p.co.uk/showpic.html) is my selection of the show picture :) Where can I send the rest and what size? - grandadman |

Title: Re: Harewood House, Leeds Classic Car Show 2008 Post by Geoff_W on Jun 16th, 2008, 10:53pm It was really nice to meet up with friends old and new, you know who you are! Andrew that burst pipe must have been really stressful and the drive back must have felt like egg shells. Unlike "who dares wins Baz" ;) ;D I only thought about using the back way out and then queued until I drove past it the long way. Hey ho. Baz lets sell a secret map next time round 8) ::) Easy in and out that way! Great day and the Walsh scalp caught the sun with a few drops of rain to cool things down, looking at Daves piccies on the MSN site it looks as if I am destined to stare and point at things. Harewood 2008 had some really great other marques to see as well. I think I must get out with the 12valve more this year to some of the other meets Badgers Mount, Billing and Blackpool beckon. Finally a huge thank you to the Griffins, Anne you as ever really sorted it all out well and Richard your automatic gearbox rebuild was magic. |
