HI Marsh

Thanks for the info...
For me it would have to have to correct original plate it was first registered with not one that is more correct.

Would Steve Gray possibly know? He has all of the original factory documents and maybe there was some record there of the original registration number.

I appreciate that the number would be assigned at the dealership, but maybe the car went back to the factory for some reason and it was recorded then........maybe?

Peter, do we need to let someone at the CRC that we'd like to join them?

Hi Colin,
I think the general feeling is that it's open house and the more Cobs the better. If we wanted to join them for lunch then of course it would be polite to ask if they can accocomodate us.
Did you want to go to lunch with them or do our own thing?
Do we know if it is just five of us or are there more?
I can easily contact the local rep to check so that you know what lunch arrangements should be made.
Peter C
PS I have just emailed the local rep to check

Hi Colin,
Heard back from the local rep and a definite Yes, no problem in joining in with their activities including the pub and skittles.
For reference the pub this month is the Barley Mow at Walderton. About 9 miles across from Goodwood.
If however you or Mark prefer for us to do our own thing just let us know.

Me too :lol: If later we decide on The Kennels, I'm guessing this time of year we'll be ok without reservations.

Hi Guys,
Looking forward to meeting up.
I don't think the dash will be re assembled by then judging by current rate of progress.
I will aim for 11.00 and probably in the Audi A3 - light blue five door.
Yes happy to agree where to eat on the day.

PS weather update. 2 days of rain Fri & Sat should get rid of the salt for you guys with Ali cars. Sunday a tad warmer at 7C and a little sun.
