Lets organize another one!
What are the thoughts on location? Last time everyone seemed happy with the location, but perhaps with it being likely that more people will be in attendance at this one, the location might need altering...
FYI - the location at the last 'Berkshire Meet' was Showcase Cinema, Loddon Bridge, Reading Road, Wokingham, Berkshire, RG41 5HG.
The last one was held on a Saturday at around midday - how does that sound again for everyone?
Hopefully if we get enough feedback at this stage, we can set a date that many can attend :happy2:
-
Sounds good to me! :happy2:
-
Count me in... :party: any date after 7th June is good for me :happy2:
My car is in the bodyshop this month :innocent:
-
2nd thoughts,
Just had a look on the map where it is... its too far... i live in Leeds - it will take me 3 - 4 hrs to get there... and a further 4 hrs back.
Don't fancy full day driving =/ :sad:

-
Hi everyone - you can find details of the 'Dubs in the Park Event' 2009 at http://www.dubsatthepark.co.uk/ (http://www.dubsatthepark.co.uk/). Normally quite a good event, I may well go as only 5 mins from home. Normally some good photo opportunities.

....
Have just been reading this and thinking I might go.....Then I realised I won't have my GTI.....But (if no more delays!) I will have the latest Audi S4. But it wouldn't be the same without a Dub :sad:
-
Lets get the mk5 there in force!
-
Ohhhh I'm gutted that I can't attend!
-
me neither, flying upto knockhill on saturday!
-
Has anybody going got a miltek? I want to order mine but want to no the sounds of non res and res! ?
Mitch
-
I have a full turbo back res Milltek :wink:
-

-
I'm hoping to get to Dubs in the Park - it's only 10 mins up the road from me.
-

I might come, but in a new 2009 Audi S4 (no apologies for boasting about it!) - I assume I can still attend if not in a VeeDub.
I've got a big mileage to do today and also on Saturday, so I'll see how I feel. I'll PM to swop mobile #'s with Hedge if I come.
:happy2:

4. RedRobin (+S4)
What sort of time are we thinking of meeting, guys?
Sent you a PM, Hedge.
-
It starts at 11 so anytime from then? Meet in the show? Or before hand?
Mitch
-
^^^^
Possibly a good idea to meet nearby and go in together - Might be easier than trying to meet up inside, but I don't know as I've never been there.
-
how you manage to get yourself a new S4 to play with RR?
Got the brochure thru this week.....£35k base price! woah.......
-
^^^^
Sometimes it's who you know rather than what you know :wink:
Someone being very generous to me - All will be revealed in my review in about a week's time.
This one is the 7-speed DSG S-tronic version :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove:
-
theres a shell garage nearby if any good ??

^^^^
Phylis!!!!! Whoopee! Do you want to meet and convoy up, my friend?
-
Unsure as to whether Shelley and kiddies might come along as yet to make a day of it, so unsure as to what time we'd be setting off as yet. Ill let you know Robin :wink:
One of my pescara's is on, but its the wrong colour!!!, paintshop made a Boo Boo :sad:, and are gonna redo it in the correct colour, so finished article wont be for another 10 days. (In time for Superchips though :happy2:).The 1st correct colour alloy is being fitted monday morning, and every 2 days, the 2nd ,3rd, 4th go on :party:
-
^^^^
No problem - Just let me know by mid-evening Saturday please. Hedge is suggesting me/we arrive at his place which is close to the event.
I'm at Castle Combe all day tomorrow so don't be concerned if I don't post here until the evening.
-
What time you guys meeting? You could meet at a little pub/resturant near by called the peacock farm? Fairly big carpark and it about a quater of a mile away if that
Mitch
-
We will probably be coming in from the other direction from Crowthorne.
-
What time you guys meeting? You could meet at a little pub/resturant near by called the peacock farm? Fairly big carpark and it about a quater of a mile away if that
Mitch
....Then I suggest that Hedge and myself and (probably) Phil, continue on from Hedge's and meet you at Peacock Farm - Post code?
^^^^I've just read Hedge's post^^^^
I hope there are no peacocks at Peacock Farm! True story - As a younger lad I once had a girlfriend whose family had a small stately home and peacocks in the grounds. Someone with a very shiny Bentley visited one weekend and some strutting peacock saw a reflection of himself and, being convinced it was a rival male, did very serious paintwork damage to the side of the Bentley. So, watch it, Phylis!!
-
Ooooh! I think I might be able to make this.
Will probably bring along wife & nippers. I'll speak to the boss when she gets it and put in my application! :grin:
-
^^^ i shall leave her Filthy Robin......... had a wash all of 3 days ago :signLOL: :wink:
-
Ooooh! I think I might be able to make this.
Will probably bring along wife & nippers. I'll speak to the boss when she gets it and put in my application! :grin:
....That's great if you do, Phil!
I'm at where you and I usually meet (Castle Combe) the day before.
So, should I bring the S4 into the event itself or leave it at Hedge's as I was going to do?
Does your moby still start with 077 and end 431 ?
-
Ooooh! I think I might be able to make this.
Will probably bring along wife & nippers. I'll speak to the boss when she gets it and put in my application! :grin:
....I'm sure you meant to write "when she gets in" as in "gets home". Although that is perhaps another effective way of gaining a day-pass! It's supposed to work the other way around though - You'll say yes to anything at certain moments :evilgrin:
-
LOL - yep when she 'get's home'. She was wanting to go to this event months ago when I saw it advertised in VW Camper magazine so will hopefully make it.
Yep, you have my correct number - I also still have yours saved :happy2:
Bring the S4 in Robin - I'm sure all would like a good oggle at it, including me :wink:
-
So we just meeting there now?
Mitch
-
ok see you in there then, 11 on the dot :smiley:
-
Yes, Robin, hedge and Myself are arriving together, so keep an eye out for 2 ed 30's and a S4 Audi. :happy2:
-
....
Mitch & NB07 - Have we got your mobile #'s? Hedge, Phil Mcav, and me, are meeting up and arriving together.
I'll PM my moby # and we can hook up if you like.
-
I will hopefully be coming along as well so ill keep an eye out for you guys (well your cars!!)
Mine is recognisable be a "saints" sticker in the back window!

....Not just any S4 either! 09 plate supercharged Avant plus all the extras and Milltek quads. I've just driven back home from Castle Combe in it and am feeling as high as a kite!

-
^^^^
Alex, do you have any of our mobile #'s? - It makes it easier to hook up if you like.
I know my car will be the only 09 S4 Avant there, but there'll be so many cars.
-
i must be the only person in the world without a mobile!! i know hedges car and philys so will look out for them :happy2:
-
Grrrr. I'm starting to have 2nd thoughts about going to this. Torrential rain here at the moment and I only live about 17 miles away. The thought of dragging wifey & two young kids around a muddy field in pouring rain is not appealing at the moment. I'll see what the weather does over the next hour :sad:
-
Yes it is persisting quite heavily at the moment. :sad:
-
not looking much fun by the weather here :confused:
-
Latest update from Easthampstead Park - absolutely peeign down with rain, not looking good. Am in 2 minds whether I am going to go and I only live 3 mins away.
-
.......and then the sun comes out. :smiley:
-
suns out boys im heading down shortly i only live a mile from it and its lush!
-
Well weather held off, spotted Mitch's Car but didnt see you mitch!!. Some lovelly
cars campervans, and nice to have a good chat with Dominic (DomT) Ian (hedge) and the Batmans sidekick Robin, even though he was refused entry to the show wis his Boom box Audi :laugh:.
Enjoyable day. Phylis was shiny untill i made the journey up :sad: :sad:
-
I was out in the work van all day today and kept seeing all the lovely Dubs making their way to the show. Wish I could have gone!
Can't believe that Robin was refused entry in the S4......! Its not even as if its a run-of-the-mill Audi, its a very new and rare model! But i s'pose that it isnt a Dub....... :confused:
-
I saw your car phill and the ther ed30's! Spotted anougher gti parked near mine!? I didnt see any one tho! Was floating about till 2 i thought it was a good show tho! Its getting busyer every year!
Mitch
-
i thought it was gonna be just too wet we went bowling instead sorry guys didnt think any one would be going?!! :scared:
-
Well I went in the end but waited until the weather improved. I think I arrived about 12.40pm. I saw some of your cars inbetween the showers. Not ideal weather and I was kind of less mobile with the wifey & kids. Anyway, here are some pics from the day. Mods....feel free to move if you would prefer them to be in the Photography section. :happy2:
Robin - I didn't call you as I thought you didn't make it (no S4?) but i've since that you weren't allowed in??
Don't know why as there were Seats in there!!

^^^ Images fixed :rolleye:

Great pics tarmac!, nice to see Phylis attracting attention with the Cf wrapping. :happy2:
-
Thanks :jumpmove:
Ithink you beat me to that :happy2:
-
I meant to add; just as I was leaving this afternoon I noticed that someone (assume a dealer / employee) had a black MKVI GTI there. Anyone get a good look at it?
-
I Didnt see it, i left with wifee and kids about 2pm, when the rain decided to make an appearance.
-
oo nice little picture of mine there cheers dude! i need to go to a propper meet and see you guys i didnt meet anyone!
mitch
-
I didn't meet anyone either. I think they could have better organised the event by having either club stands or maybe section the different types of vehicles together ie campers area, Beetles another, GTI's......
Can't really fault the event though for £5 entry. If the weather was good it would have been a perfect location.
-
....
I enjoyed the day - I always enjoy meeting up with fellow enthusiasts, and there were some nice Dubs there - A good selection. I must sort out and post some pics.
I'm soooo enjoying the supercharged S4 and getting more and more used to how she handles - Exceptionally!! Although the Milltek is a first stage development exhaust and is boomy in 7th, the sound is awesome. I'm only managing 19 mpg - I wonder why! :evilgrin: She's supposed to do around 30 mpg.
-
Robin - I didn't call you as I thought you didn't make it (no S4?) but i've since that you weren't allowed in??
Don't know why as there were Seats in there!!
....I was allowed in but the car wasn't!

I've got loads of pics to sort out: This Dubs park event, JapFest at Castle Combe, pics of the latest S4 Avant I've been driving, pics today at VWRacing.
