    Just so I can clarify from my side of things and people can stop throwing sly digs. There is no problem with people meeting up, mini meets happen here and there and they themselves are good for the motors community. It seemed to me like this was organized to exclude a certain group of people from attending.

    People need to stop misinterpreting what others are saying, it seemed like there was enough people going to Cork that could have made the journey for others down worthwhile. Like minded people who enjoy a chat with people who would call friends and a munch.

    I have asked this question four times now and got no response, if 10-12 of us met up and didn't mention it on here in Midway you can be damn sure that group would be wondering why they weren't involved.


    I find it interesting the cavalry that have suddenly become active posters again in order to get a good swipe in.

    Would you ever get a car wash, fcuk sake?! Topaz were doing car washes for 1 euro! :pac:
    So today i bought an Bimmer :p

    Nice looking motor. The ST must be diesel-cheap to run if you can justify another €710 on tax :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,473 ✭✭✭YbFocus


    Lovely purchase SG!

    Well... almost. Too bad they're not providing a car, but can't complain about free track time anyway.

    It's like €200 for 20 mins in the 911, got it for the groom of the wedding I was best man at. It would be too much cost to them :)

    You need not go flat out, enjoy it, it will be good :)

    Well wear by the way. Fine motor!

    Quite a few people have said this to me now, I'd be afraid I'd wreck it tbh :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,585 ✭✭✭ba_barabus


    I got stuck in traffic earlier just in case anyone thinks it was an organised meet and you weren't invited :p

    Well tbh you are correct but now you're just being childish. As a "moderator" you think you'd act a bit less like a child.

    To all the people repeatedly making jokes about mini meets, cmon guys grow up a bit. There's a difference between 12 people and two people and if you can't see that well not much more to say.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,066 ✭✭✭✭Big Nasty


    Mini = small. Two people is a small amount of people. I have every right to call it a mini meet! :p

    So what if there was a meet with 9/10 lads? Yes we knew each other from Boards but it was completely organised on another site between ourselves. What exactly was wrong with posting the pictures, seems that people liked them being posted judging by the thanks?

    I think people are making jokes as the situation is childish and ridiculous. I don't think I've ever gotten an invite to a meet and have yet to take it personally.

    Is that number plate offset on that mondeo yoke 166man?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,363 ✭✭✭✭cantdecide


    And I was the star of the show. Even brought the family along

    This is my favourite song of yours...

    Uh oh!

    Yeah think it is Colm. Car is approaching 20000km as well and working well. Very good cars I think but fuel tank is a little small.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,902 ✭✭✭power pants


    im the person you always reply to on this forum. Perhaps being so upset and throwing a sissy fit has given you amnesia?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,328 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    Everybody's had their say on meet-gate. There has been a hands-off approach taken, in the interests that those with grievances get them out in the open and everybody get their points across. This appears to have happened.

    Enough is enough now though, it's business as usual with regards manners, rules etc.
    We need to move on from this, any more personal jibes/trolling/feckacting will be dealt with harshly

    This is not the place to discuss the dynamics of the "community", perhaps take it to PM. Any further discussion of this on this thread will be taken as trolling


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,473 ✭✭✭YbFocus


    Here's one to unite us all

    It was somewhat of a meet in spirit too!

    I decided to copy FN's photo (badly)...

    I have this car the past 8 years. First owner since import. Was my first car and now the girlfriend drivers it. Since my car gets so much love I decided to give the civic some love.

    The paint work needed a bit of tlc due to dullness, oxidation and some scratching. I did the following

    prewash, 2 bucket wash, dry, t-cut, layer of polish, layer of wax. I am fairly pleased with the end result and the girlfriend is delighted. I think this will earn me some brownie points ha

    Not bad for a nearly 17 year old car with 250k kms on her.
