MRK1 Gathering 13th June 2010 Mosney Ireland

[MR2MK1]

Hi Folks
The North East Vintage Car Club(Ireland) Annual Show at Mosney will be held on Sunday 13th of June and we are looking for as many Mk1 'S to attend as possible .Anyone who is interested can contact myself Alpha13,scoobyblue or rockinhorse.or we can start a list on the forum Also anyone who is interested in going on the 12th and doing an overnight in a local hotel let me know and i will see what i can find out.If we get enough people we hope to have our own area in the show.So lets see how many cars we can get from both North and South or further afield everyone is welcome.
Colin :+: :clap: :clap:

[alpha13]

ok. if we can get an idea of definate numbers of cars going as soon as possible, i can have a chat with seamus the organiser and see about our own area, rather than being put in with other groups like the toyota club or that.. think it will help us to get more awareness for the cars and the club if we can have them together and away from the toyota club... just an opinion.
so i for one am definate for mosney with bumblebee
who else we got??????
cheers

[corkcorolla]

I'm 99.9% certain to be there in the MR2.

Touch wood i'll be there anyway in some sort of Toyota but i'd love to have the MR2 there,park up with the rest of ye.

[alpha13]

ok guys... if you are interested in going to mosney with a mk1, olease let me know... i still dont have any idea of numbers and as such, cant really get on to seamus to see about organising our own area, if it is possible..
so can whoever is planning on going can you respond on here again... even if you have already commented before..
thanks guys

[MR2MK1]

[MR2MK1]

No problem just add your name to the list trying to get as many MK1s as possible :+:

[alpha13]

ok! is that a definate 8 cars then at least???? if so i can start to work with that with seamus the organiser of the mosney event... please respond asap!!
thanks guys!!!

[scoobyblue]

its 5 on the list mark , i was waiting for baldy1 to confirm if he meant 2 x mk1mr2's and i noticed that ronnie hasnt added his name yet that would make the 8 if those are confirmed , has anyone heard from rockinhorse? :think:

[MR2MK1]

Not heard from Ronnie in a while but i think he is a definate .
Mark think you should at least call the guy and get some sort of feeling for what we need to do about getting our own patch especially now that we are getting the media from the club.

Colin :+:
it would be great if you could call him mark , get the lowdown on what is exactly involved, fees etc :+:

[alpha13]

ok. leave it with me... i will try and get in touch with him over the weekend and find out what the story is...

[MR2MK1]

Hi guys do you think it would be worth while contacting some of our the local toyota dealerships / autopart suppliers to see if they would want to advertise with us /sponsor us on the day
Just a thought :wave: :)
Colin

[corkcorolla]

I'll defiently be there. :+:

I wont know til nearer the date if I can drag another few with me.

[alpha13]

ok guys. i have spoken to seamus about getting our own patch for the mk1's.
there is no problem with it whatsoever. we have till mid april, end of it at the latest to let him know the situation, how many cars etc etc, i told him i would let him know and get all the entries and send them in together to make it easier to process, and as such it will also mean we will have continuous numbers which will look better for us as a club to others :) :)
so mid april is the deadline for mosney for those who want to be together as one club of mk1's
cheers.

[alpha13]

right... i was on to seamus over the weekend.. they still dont have the application forms done yet... i gave him my e mail address and asked him to send me an application as soon as he has them done, so i can send them on to you that want to go. he reckons it will be another few weeks...
so if you are interested in going to mosney, i would ask you to make sure you have your e mail address with pat on mr2mk1ireland@gmail.com so i can send the application on to you as soon as i get it.
thanks.

The application forms are now available to download from the nevcc web site along with all the details for the day .What way do you want to work this?will we all download the forms fill them in then forward them onto you with payment this way you could enter them as a club rather than us sending individual ones in or if anyone who is going on Sunday to Beaulieu they could give you thier forms with the payment. ,Let me know what your thoughts are on this.
Colin :+:
http://www.nevcc.net

[alpha13]

thanks for the mail last night colin.
i attached a copy of the form to an email and sent it to all those in the contacts list on the mr2mk1ireland@gmail.com address.
i will bring a few paper copies with me on sunday for those that want to fill them out then, as for the rest the easiest way is to fill out the application form on the computer or fill it out scan it and then email them back to me. then i can print them out and send them in as one lot, makes it easier for us and for the organisers of the event which should work to our advantage too.
as for payment i am not sure what the best way to arrange that is yet... i can get it off those on sunday that are going... the problem is that one the application goes in with the money there will be no refund to whoever decides they cant make it so suggestions are welcome inregards a solution to this... dont imagine it will be a problem.
mark

[MR2MK1]

Good one Mark i will give you mine on Sunday and i have ten copies printed for Sunday to give out so if you think that will be enough dont bother printing anymore.
Colin :+:

[alpha13]

good man colin :) :) should be more than enough... i will bring along more of the buisness cards with me..

[scoobyblue]

unfortunately i am going to have to withdraw my name from the mosney show as after our easter sunday meet i will be selling humphrey. if needed i will do an article on the meet for the magazine, but due to personal reasons i will be selling the car and will advertise it very soon on the site, failing a sale there it will be on the open market but i will point the new owner towards this club as it has been an invaluable help in learning about the car. i would also like to thank all the members for their unselfish advice and friendliness over the past few months and wish everyone success and happy motoring. i will be passing the flags and banners that richard kindly sent to us in ireland for the mosney show to mark or ronnie or colin who will hopefully carry on the lao duties . they practically do it themselves anyway and judging by their enthusiasm and dedication , they will do the club proud. as i said i will post the car up for sale in the near future with more detail and pics and hopefully it will stay in the club :+:

[alpha13]

:( :( :( :( :( sorry to hear that pat :( :( :(
please god it wont come to that *fingers crossed*

[Monkeymax]

:( Really sorry to read that you're selling it Pat. You've contributed a fair bit to the club too so I hope you stick around at least for the social side!?

[alpha13]

i second monkeymax's thoughts, and sure the rest agree too pat!!!

[MR2MK1]

Yes i agree totally and I had this conversation with Pat yesterday when he told me about his intention to sell the car. We all value your input Pat and definitely don't. want to loose you as you are a very valued member of our club here in Ireland. I think i can speak for everyone and say we would all like you to stay with us in some form or other even if it is just to have your say and advice on any matters that may arise. :clap:

Colin :+:

[scoobyblue]

thanks to all for the kind sentiments and if and when things improve i will certainly be on the look out for another mk1 and of course register with the club again, i will see you all on the 4th and chat then :+: , for anyone interested in meeting up earlier colin has arranged to meet at b&q carpark at 10.30am where there is a sale on in silicone for tbar owners :lol: :+:

[rockinhorse]

dont think your gettin away that easy pat...we know where you live..lol.. see you on sunday for a yarn..hopefully i wont need to drive down in my wellies and u boat hat.. :shock:

[MR2MK1]

Might need to bring your own silicone as i think all the stores are shut on Sunday :lol: As long as i have my plastic seat cover i will be happy :lol: Hopefully the weather will be kind to us .I got the car taxed yesterday and had it out for its first run last to find i had bad sterring shake at around 60mph not good so went this morning to get it checked out as i thought the wheels were out of balance .It turned out one of the tyres had a flat spot on it so put 2 new ones on the front and got them balanced so problem cured would not have wanted to do the drive on Sunday the way it was.Also the car is going in for a full respray end of next week so hopefully will be looking well for Mosney.Toyed with the idea of doing it a wild colour :lol: but just going to keep it the origional Mica blue pearl.Catch you all on Sunday

[scoobyblue]

this is just to confirm that i have now given beaulieu house the final figures of 7 cars and 13 people
ronnie
mark+1
colin+1

for those interested colin has arranged to meet at b&q carpark in newry for 10.30-11.00am for a bit of a chinwag and then we will all meet at beaulieu house for no later than 1pm. i think the soup/sandwiches/tea/coffeeetc are at 1pm , then the tour after that which should see us all finished up by 2.30pm at the latest. hopefully the weather will be kind to us and i will see you all tomorrow :+:

[alpha13]

cheers

[MR2MK1]

Mark

Colin :+:

[alpha13]

come on guys!

[scoobyblue]

come on guys!
i apologise guys for not b eing in touch recently but as mark and colin know i have my reasons. i must say that after chatting to everyone at beaulieu house , you all would have been raring to go for mosney. i would like to hope that the enthusiasm shown over the last few months has not died out . it is after all in all mk1 mr2 owners and members in ireland 's own interest to make these events a success. mosney is the perfect showcase for these great cars and a brilliant opportunity for increasing awareness of both the car and the club. the greater the membership ,the greater the knowledge base and after all it is not the kind of car people buy as either just a mode of transport or an investment . you need to be dedicated to the concept of the car and it's good points as well as the bad points . i just wish i could be more active at the moment but hopefully will rejoin the fold soon . as for the moment any members over here should get in touch with mark or colin and give a reply to them either yes or no for mosney, it is no good deciding not to go and then sticking your head in the sand until it all dies down. the success of these events depends solely on the participation of the members not just sitting at a keyboard throwing questions at the forum. basically i am saying that we have all benefitted from the clubs forums with free technical advice and readily available parts so, IT IS TIME TO GIVE A LITTLE BIT BACK BY PARTICIPATING IN THE EVENTS KINDLY ORGANISED BY COLIN, MARK , RONNIE AND THE OTHER ACTIVE MEMBERS OVER HERE!
just to end this particular rant i am sure that any members from across the water would be made very welcome and it would be an ideal weekend break for anyone on the mainland :+:

[rockinhorse]

made the short trip to shanes castle on mayday and of course made b line to small classic display... :clap: behold a mark 1 n/a white over grey. interviewed, briefed, counselled and passed on as much points about mark1 club bennefits as possible.. even filled him in on how much banter and p... taking he can look forward to :angel: .. give him my cotact no. regards goin to mosney.. but sadly like many others will have to wait on some sort of reply if any...still think being forced at spearpoint is the only way to encourage some owners .. :? maybe just hookin on da auld tow rope trick is best.. :+: one can only try.. seen a few red cars in local town lately but always goin in wrong direction.. why is that.. :problem:

[scoobyblue]

maybe they turned and went the other way when they saw you coming ronnie :lol:

[MR2MK1]

Hi Pat
Great to hear from you and thanks for the encouraging words of support for Mosney but as you say the only way we are going to make a success of or runs and events is by the attendace of as many members as possible and sadly as ronnie has pointed out i think it would take some kind of explosive device to move some people.Well all we can do is try try try.
Anyway i will be at both Mosney and Ballymena regardless and have my entry submitted for both so anyone else who intends to go get your entrys in as the price for Ballymena goes up after 20th of may currently £8 for car driver and 1 passenger so not an expensive day out.
So come on guys get your entrys in and enjoy your cars

Colin :+: :wave:

[alpha13]

good to hear from you pat :) :)
there is 6 for mosney. we will just have to make the look of our stand.. if we get one, as good as possible and make the other owners take notice of us.. then we should get more interest. hopefully.
keep in touch pat :) :)

[scoobyblue]

keep in touch pat :) :)
will do as much as possible .i think things may be on the upturn and i may be able to avoid selling humphrey. in the meantime i would appeal to every member over here to make the effort to make mosney and proove to everyone that the mk1 mr2 is the classic car to own, after all, the more interest in the car there is will help improve values and availability of parts. Be proactive and make this thing work, the turnout for beaulieu house was brilliant and it woould be a shame to take a step backwards at this stage!ONWARDS AND UPWARDS :+:

[MR2MK1]

Hi Guys
Just got an email from our chairman Richard to say he will be attending the Ballymena show on the 26th .He will arrive on the 25th for 2 nights .
More details to follow
Colin :+:

[alpha13]

hopefully that will be the case pat and you dont have to get rid of the car :) :) heres hoping :+: :+:

[rockinhorse]

dearest colin, :angel: i will be keeping you company at ballymena but you may be asked to change the odd dirty nappy and bottle feed a 7 month old but hey thats another bonus of running around with us modest owners in our classics.....i will be handing out as many club cards in the beer tent as possible...or until the wife finds me.. :lol: take note mark mosney is just around the corner ... :P :lol: good to see young pat still tapping on the keyboard and some mighty speaks as well..by the way have prepared a super edition junior.. and will take its place on the dash ..usual spot.. :+: such idol hands .. :oops:

[MR2MK1]

Ronnie i changed my first nappy nearly 20 years ago and finished about 10 years ago so sorry out of practice but will bring along some air frshners just in case of accidents :lol:
Anyway get your entry in as they go up in price towards the end of may you can do it online at there web site.Robin says he will be there as well so thats 5 to date and if Pat is able to attend with the car as we all hope he does we have 6 ,might get a club pitch yet ,i think i will give them a call and see if i can wangle something as far as the numbers go

Colin :+:

[alpha13]

just do what i did colin. use the we are only beginning and at the early stage of setting up the club.
thats what i said for mosney... hopefully it works and we get our own patch for it.. time will tell. :)

[MR2MK1]

sounds good will keep you posted
Colin

[MR2MK1]

[MR2MK1]

Mark
It is Mica Blue Pearl but as you say it looks black in the pics wanted to stay with the original Toyota colour :+:
By the way myself robin and maybe ronnie are coming down on the 12th for the show have booked into city north hotel do you know it? they told me it is only a couple of minutes from Mosney

[MR2MK1]

Ok guys jusy over 2 weeks now to Mosney, as you are all aware this is our first show as a club and i am really looking forward to it and hope you are as well. :clap:
The guys on the mainland are sending me a club gazeebo over and it is due to be picked up on the 28th of this month and i think they are also sending another flag so we will have plenty of club media on display to promote ourselves.The other thing i was thinking about was food for the day ,i was thinking of picking up a couple of disposible barbecues and bringing them down.Ronnie looks as if he he is a good cook :lol: Well all suggestions welcome .Mark what do we need to do about getting in ,are we going to meet up first ?as i mentioned in an earlier post a few of us hope to head down on the 12th but we can talk about that later.
By the way it is still not to late to enter so anyone out there is welcome to join us :D

Colin :+:

[alpha13]

well first off... as part of the entries you get 2 tickets for free coffee/tea and a sandwich for each entry aswell as your entry prize thing...
as for getting in.. i reckon it is easier if we all meet up before hand and head in together.. makes things easier to manage for us,them and we look more profesional and better organised.. and who knows maybe other mk1 owners that would be there might come up to us early and go on our stand...
i plan to get some pictures printed from the 3 previous runs and put on a board or something, sort of like a timeline of our events... and take some in mosney so we can have the board at ballymena with mosney pics too.... what do you think colin????

[KMK11]

Hey Colin,

have just seen your car pics now...looks impressive! Engine bay is pretty clean, have you refurbed the tvis & cam covers?

She'll look awesome after a few coats of wax...mica blue t-bars are 8-) 8-) 8-)

:+:

[MR2MK1]

Hi KMK11
Thanks for the kind words and yes the Tvis and cam covers have been refurbed
The car is nearly ready for the road again with most of the trims re fitted and new wheels and tyres hope to have it completed for weekend /early next week so will post some pics of finished article soon hopefully
Cheers

must agree guys very enjoyable day for all and we done ourselves the world of good with our first proper club stand, anyone who approached us seemed to take a great interest in our goings on..the fact they were offered celebrity chef burgers and hot dogs was only a minor factor.. i would like to point out that i did not eat all the menu as my camrea spy seems to have got me every time i was munching..needless to say i did stink of barbque when i got home.. however this did mean i got to watch a world cup match in peace..i must admit good days crack and the fact i had to push that cosworth up the m1 on the way home was the perfect end to the day .. :lol: :lol:

[alpha13]

:lol: :lol: :lol: hope you told them to get a good car for next year ronnie :lol: :lol: :lol:
