DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

On Saturday (26th) myself, Ian and Paul got together at a sutiable hostelry in Cardiff (or rather just outside) for the 'Mini-Meet' - nothing to do with small BMW's I hasten to add, but rather the select nature of the group!!

All three cars were (of course) as intended left hookers and all 3 ex US, Ian's 912 looking particularly fab, but I loved the wonderfully retro colour of Paul's....lots of admiring glances and interest in between our discussions then we headed off for a short cruise.



We headed off along the nearby Penarth seafront, again much admired, with a couple of piccies even being taken by others as we drove along - who knows, maybe 911 owners of the future??? Then into the Vale of Glamorgan for a 'blast' only for the selected sections of road now sporting a '50' limit and random Japanese saloons to boot!!

Never mind tho, it was great to meet you guys and see a couple of early Porsches in the mirror.

Watch this space everyone, we will be planning a full day pretty soon to take in some lovely Welsh scenery.....and we promise not to say the words 'Grand Slam' once......well okay maybe I lied about that bit!!

Cool pics,
Saw a big ugly bloke at VWoodstock with a Chartreuse car like that - wonder if it's the same bloke! Was he throwing biscuits at you?

I'm not that big! I just have an underactive thyroid gland..and I'm big boned. That's why I throw biscuits, because it stops me from eating them.


It was great to meet up, have a good chat and go for a drive. The cars really did seem to get a fair bit of attention, we even got a wave from a 996 cabriolet driver! Just got to work on those boxter drivers now. I'm definately up for the full day meet.

Sounds a great idea

we'll have to book the sunshine again!

any thoughts on starting venues / routes?

It's normally good to head up towards Brecon past the reservoirs...

Ian

Yeah - that's a pretty cool route.....here's a piccie from my former life with a Newbee:



Pontstill reservoir - very cool place for a run!!
