Title: out and about thread Post by: Rocket Ron on June 13, 2009, 19:11:21 pm Lets see you cars out and about on the street
I'll start it off came back home on the coast road from Bridport this afternoon and stopped off for a 99 (ice cream to our us friends ) on the way back. Got to be one of the best views in the uk you can just see the 11th century Abbey in the back ground and Chesil beach running off into the distance to Portland (http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p82/rocketron_photos/DSC02181.jpg) (http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p82/rocketron_photos/DSC02188.jpg) must sort out those door rubbers ::) Title: Re: out and about thread Post by: speedwell on June 13, 2009, 19:39:02 pm can i play too ::) ::)........... ;D

Title: Re: out and about thread Post by: Rasser on June 15, 2009, 21:12:32 pm Trip to Hannover, Germany - 1200km total.
I was lucky enough to cruise some of the trip with some guys that knew how to take cool photos (my car, their photos) 100mph cruising will do that to your windscreen ;-) (http://i486.photobucket.com/albums/rr230/rasser_dk/DSC_00171024x768.jpg) (http://i486.photobucket.com/albums/rr230/rasser_dk/DSC_00221024x768.jpg) (http://i486.photobucket.com/albums/rr230/rasser_dk/DSC_02691024x768.jpg) (http://i486.photobucket.com/albums/rr230/rasser_dk/IMG_04051024x768.jpg) (http://i486.photobucket.com/albums/rr230/rasser_dk/div0221024x768.jpg) (http://i486.photobucket.com/albums/rr230/rasser_dk/div0251024x768.jpg) Title: Re: out and about thread Post by: Jason Foster on June 15, 2009, 21:17:49 pm Here's a couple shots from Sarge's spycam.

Tom, are those 356 wheels 5.5" & 4.5" widths? They look great, by the way. Rasser, that's one tough looking beige ragtop that you've got, there. Really dig it.

Thanks Mark - Good eye! they are og KPZ & Lemmerz 4.5s all around, the rears have approx. 1/2" more offset, so they look like 5.5s you can see the skinny 165s in this pic ;D Title: Re: out and about thread Post by: Rennsurfer on June 16, 2009, 01:10:37 am Thanks Mark - Good eye! they are og KPZ & Lemmerz 4.5s all around, the rears have approx. 1/2" more offset, so they look like 5.5s you can see the skinny 165s in this pic ;D They look great, Tom.

Sweet ride! Now I know how my car will look w/ T-Bars. ;D
Title: Re: out and about thread Post by: alfie the monster on June 20, 2009, 14:39:10 pm Because it was a nice day, and because my other half has gone shopping, I decided to have a little trip out. All of these are within a 5 mile radius of me, some cracking country roads, although tight corners, 145's, a 2276 and bouncy seats don't really go together well :o
First off Harting Down, I was going to drive round the other side of the fence to get some better shots, but I was given some dirty looks when I crackled in to the car park so thought better of it ;D (http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o340/jimbo2109/Home006.jpg?t=1245504848) Then I paid a little trip to East Meon, I'd say that 75% of the buildings are 200 + years old. Really nice little village, with a cracking pub! (http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o340/jimbo2109/Home007.jpg?t=1245504955) (http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o340/jimbo2109/Home011.jpg?t=1245504972) Then off to Butser Hill with views of the South Downs. (http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o340/jimbo2109/Home003.jpg?t=1245505032) (http://i340.photobucket.com/albums/o340/jimbo2109/Home004.jpg?t=1245505043) Not a patch on Sarge or Fab's pictures, I 'll try harder next time ;) Title: Re: out and about thread Post by: Rennsurfer on June 20, 2009, 15:09:54 pm Right on, Alfie. Looks like a fun trip. Also justifying ownership of your Cal Looker.

Well, it's the first day of Summer. I said I wasn't having anything to do with VW's this weekend (after the Classic bender), but who can resist a cool, cloudy day with sun peeking through every now and then.... Time to head for the hills for a few pics. ::) ;D Title: Re: out and about thread Post by: glenn on June 21, 2009, 20:10:04 pm Life's a Beach
