cough *albury* cough

Resty, it's not in Albury, the Sydney guys are too poor/soft/lame/uncommitted to drive to Albury!! Actually, if it didn't cost $200 a litre for fuel, that might be a viable idea... Heck the Sydney guys won't even go as far as Canberra, Adam and I did for Rally of Canberra!!!!!

The idea of a joint cruise would be a great idea one day but given the current make up of students and young people, there's a tiny chance it'll ever happen.

Zetec,

You've got a short memory mate! Wasn't I there at Canberra?

I love Danny's idea of a yearly EUROFORDCLUB meeting.

i'd have no issues with driving 3-4hrs for a cruise. done the bathurst run a few times before with no problems.

but seriously, whats to do in albury? i think more people would be interested in cruising for 3-4hrs if there was something significant at the end.

although in saying that, there are some people who are just too poor/soft/lame/uncommitted to drive even out to springwood

Even I drive from Melbourne to get to Springwood cruises!!!

Eddie, I apologise for not making it clear that you were there, I was referring to the young whippersnappers in Sydney who didn't accept the call to come along. You were a given since you practically organised the whole thing!!

Should be okay, I'll keep the date in mind.


...and to reply to an earlier post... No, 1998-2002 Cougar's in Australia are German (America only made for their market and their quality was not as good as the Euro ones).

For the first time ever, I have to agree with what Josh Is saying here. I will start thinking/looking for places we can meet at central to Melb/Syd. Sureley we can make this happen, No doubt
