Just did some totting up, Over 60 X-Types are going with a few more to confirm. Apparently some S-Type are masquerading as X-Types as well, but I think we can forgive them for that :D

Morning All,

Thanks

Hi Bandit, just got back from the meet.

You could have just turned up, if you went then you would have had a good day. If you didn't go then sorry you missed it.

There will be other meeting throughout the year, I will post up details as and when they are due

It was quite funny rolling out of the service station in convoy. I was near the rear and there was some very bemused looks on other people in the car park

like wise I was at the back, the good folk on the M54 were shocked to see 50 or so X Types come past them, nose to tail, outside lane, 70 mph, a great day
