Are there still any vacancies in the LMR?

I've recently joined the world of MINI and would be interested in a few meets and days out.

Hi Bob

The Black Pudding Run

Have you heard of this run, I believe its run by the MG owners clubs and its done around, Bury, Oldham and the surrounding areas, I have a copy of the run notes and would be interested in arranging a LMR run similar to theirs, might need some local information to make it work.

Steve

Thanks Steve.

Never heard of the Black Pudding Run, but i'm not that far from Oldham and Bury so i might be able to help out with a bit of local knowledge. Let me see what the notes and i'll see if we can sort something similar.

Bob.

Hi Blackadder, i know Greenfield well! Live in Delph, just on the crossroad with A62 at Delph Station. Don't think i've spotted you yet but i'll keep my eyes peeled. I'm now cruising about in a DS/B MCS with spot lights (previously a white E30 with black alloys).

Never had any experience of Rochdale's, but Bolton (myself) Manchester (Girlfriend) and Liverpool (friend)

When my girlfriends passenger door wouldn't unlock, she was told it was selective unlocking (depite me explaining to her it wasn't that and they may suggest it) even though she'd told them the boot would unlock at same time as drivers door.

Next thing was when her car wouldn't lock itself, she was told maybe she wasn't pressing the button hard enough She was then told despite her car not locking that earliest they could look at it was 2 weeks! She then asked what was she supposed to do sleep in it.

Anyway they fixed it and said it was a dodgy connection.

When the door started not unlocking again she took it to Bowker in Preston (she lived in Manchester) who replaced the door wiring as it was damaged wiring (not a connection) and it looked to have been half repaired.

Williams after sales service was one of the main reasons I bought my second car (and started servicing my 1st 2nd and now 3rd cars) from Woodmans in Blackpool.

Long drive (50 mile+ round trip) but worth it for the piece of mind.

Depends what time, i usually head off towards Oldham up the A62 about 07:20.

I have to ask, why do you work in Greenfield if you live in Bolton? Seems like a fair old trek everyday.

Ahh reet well usually around there anytime between 7.30 / 7.40, as for the travelling 60miles there and back but its worth it good company and its a good run there too there's actually 3 of us who work there from bolton so 1 in 3 ain't bad
