Northampton Classic Audi meet - Page 5

Leg2562 · 04-05-14, 05:17 PM

We had a modest four vehicles for the meet, which was never the less enjoyable. It's always good to talk about your old cars with fellow enthusiasts.
It was good to meet Phil, Lee and John, and I especially liked John's Coupe quattro (I may be a little biased of course!) which he has owned since '91, and I thought I had had mine a long time having purchased it in '99. I hope you got that binding rear calliper sorted out?

Would be nice to see one of Phil's Audi 100s at some point when they're back on the road.

And good luck with the Crumball Rally for Lee! 3000 miles to cover, that's some petrol bill

Great choice of car though - the cabriolet was looking good with the sponsors decals all over it.

We all had the bonnets up at the same time at one point checking out each others rusty lumps (I'll speak for myself). General consensus was that we all wanted to steal the 20V turbo engine out of Phil's car for our own

Shame Tommy3G couldn't make it. We'll have to organise another meet for later in the year. I'd love to look over that black Coupe GT5S

Here are a few pics.

Agreed, always encouraging to meet up with like-minded enthusiasts.

Thanks for getting us organised.

Good to meet you guys, hopefully at some point we can get some members of other Audi forums along to bolster numbers, we are in a good area for it so could become a regular thing if there are enough of us.

Anyone planning on going to Audi's in the Park on the 10th of August?

I probably will if I'm not working.

Apologies for the no show guys.

Looked like a perfect afternoon in Northampton!

Will have to sort something else out with you.

I've heard there is a Wednesday every month at Earls Barton that has a load of classic cars meet regularly. May be an idea to check that out?

I've been sorting the dents and paintwork to get it back up to scratch.

Hi All,

Really good day good to meet everyone.

I will most likely go to Audis in the Park, would be good if we could have a stand and show off some cars.
