Midlands Meet - Photo Thread

[Dan]

Right, the picture's you've all been waiting for!

If your going to add your own pictures please blank the plates out as people like Jonny have alot of moneys worth of equipment and wouldnt want it being stolen by some twoker.

Thanks people.

[Dan]

These are the 31 pictures I took.

I'm REALLY happy with the picture's ive taken.

If you want any of the pictures without the border, blanked plates and a full size photo (about 4 times the size of these) just ask me on msn.

Safeee.

lol

[Quiksilver_TR]

Some nice pics here. Looks like a good turn out to.

[Fuzzy Orange]

Funny thing is he aint joking - a merc did that thing where he overtook leaving me to break in the middle lane - so I pulled out and chased him
Got up to a silly speed (wont post here - it was 70ish officer ;)) and then pulled back in behind the merc to see Mark dissapear off down the outside LMFAO

Mark how f*cking annoying was that people carrier on the way back - kept overtaking me and leaving me stuck in the inside lane braking hard for cars - then when I undertook him coming off that roundabout he went nuts...

If you're driving a big fat people carrier than can barely struggle to 60 in 12 seconds, GET THE F*CK OUT MY WAY

[Tuscan]

I had some fun on the re-turn motorway journey ;D

[leeds106]

Mark how f*cking annoying was that people carrier on the way back



i enjoyed the MR2 driving up my ass

moved over let him pass then did same to him all way to 120 when he gave up lol


BIG UP THE QUIKYS hehe

[Fuzzy Orange]

Yeah that cracked me up - he nearly drove into me, i moved then was about 2ft from your bumper at 80-odd (whats wrong with people?)
So you moved then pushed him down the A1

Why do people force themselves passed when they havent got any more power left anyway LOL

[Freedo]

what about go karting? ;D

[leeds106]

[Fuzzy Orange]

We NEED to find a karting centre somewhere in the middle of us all and get a karting day organised!!

Love the one of the back ends. :)

[Fuzzy Orange]

Yes awesome shot of the backs

Plus I love this one

http://i175.photobucket.com/albums/w153/106owners/DSCF0287.jpg

Everyone chatting - looking at each others cars

I cant express how happy I am that regional meets have taken off already in the 1st month of the club running, this normally takes a year or so, its great that everyone is already like a family :D

Plus I am over the moon to see so many standard lights and "subtle mods" instead of body kits
I think the factory-modded look is gonna be the next big thing as people realise that 106's are an awesome car as standard, and a few subtle little smoothing bits here and there can make them one of the best looking cars in the world! :D

See you all hopefully at the yorks meet ;)

[Dan]

Couldnt agree with all that anymore mate.

We all get on so well, all have very simular ideas for mods which is rare with a car club.

Not one bodykitted 106. Brilliant.

[Dargs]

*il drink to all of the above ;D

Pics are wicked dan 8) 8)

[Ali...]

ino this was tlkd about a few pages bk.. but the mk "cruise" thing isnt anymore old bill got on top of it! evryones moved to bedford apparently around 150cars are ther on a sunday night so ive bn told ? so if u was thinking of coming down mk ways 4 another meet.. only takes 25mins to get to bedford from mk! plus thrs a heavy go-karting place we cud hit up ;).. !

No one was gona come down for the cruise ali, Its full of chav gays with Corsa's.

As for the go kartin, i think it wil be further north so its in the middle of everyone?

[106gtirich]

hi guys, looks like you had a good meet then. I didn't even know about it or would have come up to introduce myself.
Whats the crack with the rear light thing then, everyone hate anything but red?
Hope to speak to all soon

Rich

[Dan]

Rich

Anything other than standard rear lights look gash, unless its them MR ones... :P

[Tuscan]

Because their half standard ;)

[Raz]

Because their half standard ;)


amen...

Raz

[106gtirich]

Ah.... I see. Well I'll wait until I have bought some standard lights until I come and introduce myself then ::)

[Dan]

Haha.

Please dont say you have lexus lights?!

[Tim]

looks like a good turn out, shame i was on a plane then! maybe there should be one near norwich for me and nick? :P and nath and zippy are from near ish

[106gtirich]

Unfortunately yes, lexus light :( however, in my defence they were already on the car when I bought it....... what do people on here think to the morrette twin h/l conversion??? ::)

[Jimbo]

Love it! Just a tad too expensive for what it is IMO.

[Dan]

Morette's arn't bad, they can look awesome but can look poo.

They ruin the smooth lines too much for my liking.

[Tuscan]

I really dont like them they look alien lol. Smooth is the way.

For some strange reason i like them on black 106's lol. Maybe becuase they dont stand out as much...Duno

[106gtirich]

ok well thats fair enough :) I'll hopefully get some standard lights back on it then soon. one more question for you all though, what do you think of a blue 106 with white 205gti 1.9 wheels on ??? I've been offered a set for a reasonable price and quite like the idea........ Rallye style or just crap??

[Dan]

If thats yours in the picture then im unsure, would look the dogs on most blue cars but you got a different bodykit and dont think it'd look right at all.

[Tuscan]

If it was a standard kit he cud pull it off eeeeeeeeezy. Post some photos up mate. Frnt-side.back

[Rallye James]

On Indigo blue (S2 Rallye colour) they look great, however on a pearlescent coloured car, like the one in your sig it would look a bit odd. IMO white wheels look best on non-metallic cars ;)

[Tuscan]

I have metalic paint ;)

[Rallye James]

I have metalic paint ;)


Lol! Still looks OK on metallic, just suits flat colours much better I think

Just my opinion ;)

[106gtirich]

hi guys, my car isn't pearlesent. Just looks that way in sig. It is almost indigo blue, but is actually a custom 1 off paint.
I know these pics are not great but they are all i have at the moment....

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b228/RICH1976/Image013a.jpg

And also I already know it needs lowering :) just working on that now.

[Dan]

Would look 100x better with standard bumpers.

[106gtirich]

in your opinion..... which I respect but I like it.

1 more.

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b228/RICH1976/PictureM-1.jpg

[Rallye James]

I would normally say I don't like kits, because to be honest I don't, however if you have to kit it, that doesn't look too bad. I've seen a lot worse.

It's been fitted and painted properly by the looks of it, would be better when it's lowered. Just lose the rear lights I would say (and so would everyone else on here really :D )

[106gtirich]

I agree Rallye, however, this is how the car was when I bought it and considering the money the guy had spent on it, I think I got a bargain. It was professionally fitted and smoothed etc at a top bodyshop, which is responsible for many cover cars. I already have the springs and am just waiting until I can afford to get the torsion bar lowered too. Also looking for some standard lights at the mo.

[Rallye James]

Sounds good :)
