Northern AMG Meeting - 27 May 2018 - National Coal Mining Museum, Wakefield

[Dogbreath]

Great to meet up again Lee, hope you can make Shildon. The Strines are definitely better in an A45, but Paul managed to bottom his out somewhere, think he was trying to catch a C63

I thought I’d took my sump off..... big fat E55 not made for jumps and dips, great day tho pal

Thanks Lee . It’s a bit of a testing road, Paul bottemd his A45! The North York’s Moors roads are definitely more E Class Friendly

Great Photo's, looks like a Great GTG + A S63, nearly as rare as my CL 63 Bi-Turbo

Thanks Andy great GTG and the weather played ball! Sorry I missed most of you as I decided to go down t'pit and came back to my car at 12.15 to find it on its own!!! Got home safe and sound today in about 3.5 hours, but that's 'cause i'm a southern softie so averaged over 32MPG

Hi Steve

Sorry we drove off without you , didn’t realise you had done the tour, hope you enjoyed it. Glad you enjoyed the day out “Up North” , I’m going to dig out my passport and hopefully venture South to one of the meetings later in the year. For what it’s worth you got the “Organisers” award for most Carbon Fibre

Catch up soon

Andy

Lovely day for a drive out, see some quality cars, have a decent breakfast and get dragged around IKEA. Saving grace is that the Mercedes AMG and Porsche dealers are just across the road.

Andy, here is the link to the place in Bowden:

howden, bistro, restaurant, afternoon tea, waterwheel, food,

Check it out tomorrow

TTFN Derek

Hi Derek

I had a drive out yesterday to find The Waterwheel, a great find, thanks for pointing this one out. Had a chat with the owner and it’s going on the list of possible venues as he’s very “Car Club Friendly”

Many thanks

Andy

Unfortunately John the museum required significant Public Liability insurance and lots of paperwork to be able to fly the drone there. Despite our best efforts to get stuck in the middle of Holme Firth we are about 5 minutes too soon for Tim to get the drone up on Holme Moss.

Note to self : Better planning and communication with Tim on the next drive out to make sure the drone is airborne before we unleash the beasts

Unfortunately no drone footage this time - next time hopefully!

You could get a C63 for twisty bits and keep the E63 for motorways

PS found some more twisty bits yesterday around East Yorkshire

That S63 coupe makes me want to sell my children into slavery.

Done already Tim! That thing of yours doesn’t hang about mind!

Amazing how much you can push out of a 1.8 isn't it!

Apparently Tim’s 1.8 thirstier than my C63

Drive it like you stole it. I suspect with depreciation and maintenance factored in...
