I have an STI-6 TypeR coming over from Japan and was wondering about local meets once it arives.
I am a newbie to the jap car industry so have never been involved with any of this scene before.

btw, I am in the Bolton area

Get yourself on the Dales run 5....a wee bit further down the page

Craft's runs always go well and he's also organising meet up points on the way to the main meet area

Pub meet Wednesday 15th Jan @ Wiggin Tree, Parbold - just off J27 of M6, or if coming from Bolton, get on A5209 and drive to the top of the hill after you have crossed the M6.

Should be a good mix of Evo's and Imprezas

Great choice to kick of the experince then

I am sure you will enjoy it.

As to the Thursday run, I can heartly agree it's a great laugh. It's at a good pace that most will enjoy. Range of power from sport's, the uk turbo's, our skoda's and of course yourself.

I do have fond memories of how warmly welcomed I was by Ian, Jim, Andy, Rich and Michelle on the first tun. Even got a cracking ride in Rich's/Michelle's 22B.

So when spring rolls out...till then Sir take care or come for a natter etc

Regards,
Colin.

Ianc : what pub? If your from round the Horwich area you may know my mate who imports Jap cars now. http://www.aisimports.co.uk

Jabbroni : Not decided on a colour yet. Probably either blue or black. I have put a deposit down on the car, I'm just waiting for the right one to turn up at the auctions. I put a bid on a MY00 TypeR V-Limited this weekend, but the car ended up going for too much money so we left it
Fingers crossed the right car turns up soon. Then I can be out in it this summer. The meets sound interesting. I'll be there.

We deliberately don't publicise the location - drop me an email (addy in profile) and I'll pass the details on. Feel free to come along before you get it, sure we can sort a pax seat or what are you driving now?
