Ok on the 27th August we will meet in Ravenswood Court in Montrose, Just park next to all of the other Fiesta'z.

Meeting time is 1:30PM not sharp but try not to be too late we will leave by 2PM latest.
Let me know if your still coming, if your just going to turn up please be there before 1:45PM

Make sure you bring some gold coins $4 to get into skyhigh and or some extra cash for a drink or so.
Bring along cameras and vid cameras as it would be awesome to catch some footage of the VIC outfit

If anyone needs more information just contact me - my phone number is just next to my location on the left of this message

Take it easy people..

I might take a trip to sydney or adelaide soon in the fez so if anyone is keen on catching up im cool

JD2004 · 23-08-2006, 03:21 PM

OZXR4 · 24-08-2006, 08:41 PM

luke it is a myth. i will be there in the grandad of the euro cars the mk1 mondeo.

OZXR4 · 24-08-2006, 08:57 PM

Time has come for the eurofords to stand up and be counted. we need numbers for this cruz. post if you can make it it is a small cruz so everyone should be involved.

Yay i have reached 100 posts. about time.

Fled74 · 25-08-2006, 12:32 AM

I'm definitely going. I told my boss two weeks ago about the cruise and he let me have this Sunday off. Just got the CAI installed and I can't wait to take the Fez for a serious run.

I hope more than three people turn up!

JD2004 · 25-08-2006, 08:36 AM

thats the spirit lads!! Jump on board people because ive done a fair bit of work getting it this far!! It would be good if melbourne could show our colours and let the rest of the states know we really are interested in having things organised!

Keep it real people!!

Well when I organised a cruise and only 3 cars turned up, I thought it was a bit of waste of organisation since about 10 people said they would come. Would've been easier to ask the 2 people to come along for a drive that day due to me having their numbers, but maybe one day the eurofordclub can go on a cruise

Sorry to hear about your effort!! it would be awesome to think that people enjoy their cars as much as to enjoy it with the rest of us!! share your passion with us, it doesnt hurt to take 4 hours out of a day to meet up with some people and show our cars off... really..

Ok well enough of my whinging im going back to polish my car.

take care people and see your ALL on the cruise

Well true don't think all of us would've fit in the pub

zetec · 25-08-2006, 06:57 PM

More that the Fiestas would have had trouble keeping up with the 2 Foci. It was bad enough waiting for Danny... (Matt runs and hides)

JD2004 · 25-08-2006, 07:35 PM

i appreciate the fact that a little fez wont be able to keep up with a foci, but we all need to understand that comparing cars to cars is useless its driving ability as far as im concerned, as we could whinge untill we are blue in the face about how good another car is ... who cares?? ... i dont... at the end of the day its not what type of football that wins the grand final its the team that kicked the most goals....

One only needs to watch this small video to understand the true meaning of knowing how to drive a car. rather than just steering it

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PTNcU_MNUw

So as drivers we should enjoy our own cars and accept the cars which we purchased and try to better ourselves rather than to slag anothers lack of punch in the engine department

I hope everyone is keen on a good drive, i assure you that i will probably be one of the slowest runners but thats because il probably have precious cargo (my lovely partner).

Keep the interest coming along guys!! its excellent to get some people along!! be sure to invite a few mates if they feel like a hint of drifting (RWD cars obviously which excludes the eurofords unless someone has gone hardcore and done a huge conversion.)

xurbanx · 25-08-2006, 08:05 PM

I'm not sure at this point, since I've only $30 to last me till this coming Thursday.

Scareybear · 25-08-2006, 08:39 PM

Have fun guys, hope all goes well, watch out for the idiots on the road.
