bristol

Always see a few nice golfs around st andrews, ashley down rd, gloucester rd ect...anyone on here? Also today saw a beautiful mk2 over on fishponds rd, highly polished, with chromed bbs rs's, seriously mint looking car!

 

i see a few in the same area. shame mines looking ratty at the moment so wont get spotted heh..

if you see a white J plater with a black drivers wing floating around give me a toot and a wave! (wet weather greasy roads and the **** in front stopping in the middle of a junction caused the odd cololouring oops )

 

i work by ashley down rd . and live in fishponds.
i see a nice black mrk2 with bbs in fishponds most mornings driveing past my house.
plus a nice mrk2 in tornado red and an oak green one a lot near ashley down rd .
(mines the blue one in the pic)

 

I used to have an oak green one parked on cromwell rd, theres a nice red one just off ashley down on chesterfield rd I think. Iv been driving through fishponds in my cabby alot recently, look out for me (one in sig but black roof + bbs)

 

ok will do

 

seen a golf exactly like yours last time I worked in Bristol parked on a hill just off the Speedwell road....I presume it was yours..v.nice! Even stopped after I'd done the job to get a second look!

 

I live in that area but my Mk2 wouldn't be described as nice (unless it's from a distance)
Where on A down rd do you work Dan? I'm up & down there a lot & have never spotted your car

 

Anyone claim that red Rallye that lives on Wellington hill West, Henleaze?

 

Not seen the red one but theres a very deep grey one works opposite my mates palce up hartcliffe way. i saw him pass me one day near arnos vale cemetery.

SkyRocketeer, i think ive sen your car before to. your nooorf brizzle arent you.. P'way?

 

is the red rallye the proper OEM one? iv seen the guy over ECP and at combe, dont think hes on here. theres a guy up the road from me who has two roccos and two mk2s at the mo but im sure hes not on here either.

 

im usually parked on shaftesbury avenue.
yeh i was working up the hill by speedwell rd

 

Matt - yeah I'm up the north side, though more Southmead/Westbury than Patchway.

The red Rallye looks the part, though I've not gone peering under the arches - left hooker and all the usual guff - enough to fool the amateur at least.

 

It's RichG60's he is, in theory, the regional host for Bristol. He doesn't often use the forum & last time I spoke to him wasn't a member any more

 

Seems like no one has spotted me

 

I don't get out much

 

Any of you guys fancy meeting up sometime?
There is the "official" CGTI meet at the Lamb & Flag, first tues of the month iirc, but I've been a few times & found them a bit clicky.
There seems to be a few of us around north Bristol so Glos rd might be an idea.

Any interest?

 

Yea im up for a little meet sometime

 

yeh im up 4 it

 

There's a well nice pub up on the badminton road that's VW friendly (especially roccos ) - nice big car park, and Food is top nosh too. I know it's a bit of a haul out of town, but we had a couple of rocco-meets there a few years back, so as long as we don't scare off the regulars, I'm sure the landlord wouldn't mind a few more petrolheads through the doors..

Not wanting to sound like an old fart, but we need to pick our venue carefully, as a gathering of petrolheads in the wrong place could quickly descend into a saxo chav-fest with section 59's issued to all and sundry

But, yeah, I'm well interested in an 'alternative' bristol meet

 

babminton road sounds ok to me .
