Re: MRK1 Gathering 13th June 2010 Mosney Ireland
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 :+:

:( 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!?
Re: MRK1 Gathering 13th June 2010 Mosney Ireland
i second monkeymax's thoughts, and sure the rest agree too pat!!!
Re: MRK1 Gathering 13th June 2010 Mosney Ireland
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:

Re: MRK1 Gathering 13th June 2010 Mosney Ireland
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
