***MOTORS MEET - Sunday October 13th Portlaoise***

    Been far too long since we had one of them so we're organising a meet for Sunday October 13th at 12.00 at Midway in Portlaoise.

    It's exit 17 off the M7. It's impossible to miss but just to hammer it home this is the place.

    This is an informal gathering of like minded people that just wish to talk and look at cars and anyone acting the d1ck will be told swiftly where to go. That means no racing, burnouts, drifting - that's not what the meets have ever been like or will ever be like.

    What usually happens is we arrive, have a chat, get a munch and chat some more. It's a great way to get to know other posters and to (hopefully) see some nice metal. It doesn't matter what you drive , it makes no difference and everyone is welcome.
    As always, if people cant get there under their own steam and need lifts or anything just mention it and I'm sure something can be sorted out.

    I only subscribed to change name and they wouldnt give me the one I wanted "BMWJames" so I was forced to look at other options!
