Nice to see a fellow T5 owner on the M25 (between jct 10 - 8) yesterday afternoon. Was the first I've seen round my way since I made my purchase in January! Good morning to green T5 man anyway.

Yeah, saw you got blocked by a sensible audi driver hogging the outside lane! Never usually enough spare road to open up the turbo at that time of day, so was a welcome change. Might see you again as I do that stretch every day back from work. Happy M25-ing!

Are any of you heading up to Avon on the 2nd April? Would be good to combine volvo special-powers on the way up.

I shall be avoiding the south and north circulars as have been caught through east sheen and hanger lane too many times on the weekend! Even with the roadworks the M25 seems to flow better for some reason. I've arranged to meet Gibbo at jnct 15 on the M40 at about 0915hrs, so perhaps we'll cross paths on the way up? Mine's a bog-standard maroon 854 (not a Rover like in my avatar!).

I take it your not racing then Nik?As if you atr i think 0715 would be a better time to meet up to get there by 0830.

Nah, I'm only watching. I thought 0915 was a bit late actually. What time are the other watchers getting there?

Nik,
It's about 15 mins from the motorway so if you want to meet at 09:00 to allow for traffic / entry etc we will be in the place for 09:30ish.
I don't know what the entrance gates (queues) etc are like @ Avon?????????
If you come off @jnc 15 onto the A46 (2nd exit) the first left is called Watery Lane i'll meet you there cause i can't remember if there are any layby's on that bit of road?

Just let me know mate?
