JAG Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Being as this is my first car I've never been to a meet as such but after goin out in the bitter freezing cold for a few hours 2nite i realised, this is fun! These are a few shots i took from earlier when moi and jo-ep91 had a little Maidstone mini meet I seemed to have a lot more pictures of the backs of the cars than i did the front... To cold to be fussy thoIt was really wierd seeing pretty much the same car look so similar but so different, beats watching tv and waiting around to go to bedReally want a turbo now.... Also just picked up my clear indicators and side blinkers from toyota which i should be slapping on 2moz when i get back from uni ;) JAG*Anyone else from Maidstone or nearby fancy having a little meet before bluewater?* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
