Probably.
I thought Matt was going, and I normally see RichB there too.

Yes I'll try to make it Bobbber, still no 33 though, engine in pieces on my kitchen table and Sportwagon is now about 4 feet square!!
Will you be in your 'Over? (assuming the head gasket holds out!!!!)
Keep it real

There's only so many weekends in the year but it's a brave man who organises an event the same weekend as Beaulieu. |

Oh well, it looks like if I go at all it wont be in the 33. Might be a passenger in Mini or minari if weather any good.
The clutch slave is leeking like a good 'un. It's less than 7 years old and has only done about 12,000 miles. it was bone dry when i changed the 'box in march too- typical.
Going to get the part today, but can't see an opportunity to do it before sunday

Are we therefore saying there won't be a single 33 there this year then?

I'm taking part in our local Owner's Club treasure trail. This year they've decided that it's only open to Owner's Club members, unlike when Dave and I used to organise it.
Just in case - it starts at the Jack and Jill pub in Hassocks near Brighton at 10.30/11am and ends up for a pub lunch somewhere. _________________ Owner's Club 33 Registrar. Now from P4 & S2 1.7 QV

Had another great day out! Met John and RichB... Rich went around the circuit there and that sounded like fun!
Good luck with the sale of the Minari John... looks like a bargain for someone.
Cheers,

Hi,
Good to see Bobbber and Andy again. Didn't catch up with RichB this time.
There was only 1 33 there, the red s2 ARO*F that's usually in the concourse.
Lots of tacky Lamborghinis, one in two tone (max power) paint and a few nasty reg plates like L13MBO and the like - lottery winners perhaps??
I drove the Minari home- went well (as usual!) still for sale, but looking more likely that it'll be kept now
Next year i hope to park my 33 next to Bobbers p4 and maybe a few more??

Good to see you chaps, sorry it was only brief. Offered Bobbber the chance to be a passenger but he made some excuses about looking after his nipper or something, judging by the "Driving Miss Bobbber" I witnessesed at Spa, I reckon he was scared of going over 50mph!!!!! (Got my 145 up to an indicated 140mph!)
Maybe next year we might all have a working 33? I doubt it.... |

sorry, was there in one of our 155s this year, both 33s are "in storage" at the moment, but maybe for next summer, we'll break out the 16v, if i've got the clutch/brakes/suspension all done |
