Righto - let's try and get started again. 2012 saw some fine evenings with great food and better company. I propose a curry at a great restaurant to start things off. Sometime in March that suits the attendees. The restaurant is the Yadgar in Govanhill, Glasgow. It's about as 'native' as...

Hi all, I have just become a proud owner of a W211 E-class 320CDI and found this excellent forum so thought I'd join. Coming from the dark side of owning a BMW, I find the car to be an awesome cruiser with tremendous power when needed. The car needs a few minor things looked at which I will...

Ok,shoot me down now,but I have been to a lot of countries around the world and I have never been to Scotland.I really enjoy ***'s touring posts and I would dearly love to go on a little driving tour of my own after the summer - say for 5 or 6 days taking in as much as I can. I realise that I...

Off the scenes I have had discussions regarding this. I did think about March but the weather is a little iffy. I am leaning towards August/September time as per last year. It also allows us time to enjoy Ian F's trip, and focus on this afterwards. I've devised two routes.... Here is the full...

If anyone lives in or near Ayr, could they send me a pm, please? Many thanks.

Batten down the hatches and put a few bricks in the wheelie bin :D

Hi guys. I am looking to arrange a meet for us in Glasgow over the next few weeks or in the new year depending on what people think. We could do in my indys big yard where he would be able to answer all our questions,do some Star diags and maybe even if you wish we could get a quality remap...

Having had Olly (PCS) replace a leaking ABC valve block (surprise suprise) recently, I deceided to take the SL to Scotland, and boy was I glad I did. All my friends thought I was mad and should take the Jeep, as it's Scotland and it's full of potholes and mud tracks they said. How wrong they...

Well my R107 500SL has behaved itself for 600 miles barring a few minor issues which are being resolved... so a road trip beckons. My dad lives in Dunnet Head which is the Northern most point of Mainland UK, and normally if I drive up, the A9 is my route, however, this time I want to do...

This is the year that I intend to do my Scottish tour but I have two options. Option 1) I have always wanted to visit Islay (Think Laphroaig), the choice is flying up from Southampton to Islay for 2 days. or driving up from Hastings and travelling over from Kennacraig on Calmac Ferries for a...

Huge favour to ask in terms of a quick look over a car to see if it looks worth the trip... Car is in Mount Vernon in Glasgow. If anyone is in the area would be very grateful Regards David

Custody of the family Labrador for a week demands another caravan jaunt into the wilderness. Hoping the weather might be kind we booked a week at Cambusdarroch on the Sands of Morar just south of Mallaig. By yon bonnie banks. On the way north. Loch Lomond in the Autumn sun. Our home...

Fresh from a brilliant day out in the sunshine and a wonderful GTG ....... Let's look at the next item on the agenda ....... another curry night. Let's get the ball rolling and look at some dates / venues. Mid Oct anyone ?

Many thanks for all those who helped me plan a trip to Scotland in May. Despite the odd thing not going exactly to plan, such as hotels full on days I hoped to stay, forcing changes to my itinerary, and a very hungover friend putting me almost two hours behind travelling up from Glasgow to the...

Council chiefs are being chauffeured around in vehicles with number plates worth millions Half of the country's local authorities own private registrations. Some are believed to be worth as much as £500,000, putting them among the top 10 most valuable plates ever issued in the UK. The majority...

Really need an indie I can trust to do good honest work for a fair price. I live in the scottish borders (northumberland - mid point between Newcastle and Ediburgh - Hawick to the West). Can anyone suggest someone who can care for my E 320 CDI auto estate :confused:

Who's all from Scotland???????
