Impromptu Motley Cruise: Sat 12/12/9

spokey · Post by **spokey** » Thu 10 Dec, 2009 13:44

Since the weather looks promising for Saturday, I wondered if anyone felt like joining me for a short cruise followed by lunch, after which we'd all run away home.

Because it might be rather nippy, Zs are optional.

Haven't quite got a route set up, but it will probably start from the usual OK Diner at 09:30 for 10:00 departure and lunch will be at a point north.

I'm willing to extend the cruise if anyone's interested, but that will only be on demand.

There may also be a dawn raid up to the "starting point" if anyone is interested.

Confirmed:

Spokey
Dario + 1

Interested:

Dario and Carrie confirmed.

Might even get the roadster out for this one

Never mind, there'll be more next year!

No other brave souls fancy a "quickie"?

The freezing fog is making a dawn raid look ... unattractive.

Sorry Spokey.. I'm out on my own little blatt tomorrow

Another time though...

Like you I hope the fog isn't about for too long..

Thanks Spokey for a great days driving, brilliant route as usual

For those who couldn't make it .... you missed a good'un.

Spokey, just want to say that following you today was once again a pleasure.

I have to say that your choice of E46 3 series auto suits you just right.

It's a titanium silver E46 coupe. I'm sure if you look around, you'll see one just like it anywhere.

PS If you were that interested, you should have come on the cruise.

Come on give us a pic!

I was having to endure a particularly boring Xmas lunch instead of having a ZR blast.

What the ones with the paddle shift and speed adjustable gear change and a just a little induction noise?

Is this one of those gearbox reset tricks you were on about?

Would this E46 Coupe also include these ?

Rearrange to suit.......3MLCS

Does it have a fluffy dice ... and Alcantara steering wheel, gear lever and hand brake if so excellent choice

Verdict: Like drugs: expensive, dangerous in the wrong hands and utterly addictive
