A bit of 'unlicensed' cross pollination here, but something I read about on the Ozbenz forum and I would really like to go to myself and obviously would like to see as many other benzes as possible. David the organiser is a really nice bloke and would surely welcome the more the merrier. I'm sure most of you know John Green and a really interesting bloke to have a chat with and he will be there with wife and one of his kids. Dinner and a wrecking yard, how could any woman resist that! If I can get away from the farm (will be negotiating that today) I will be there in my 116 with wife and kids (although I am pretty sure they will bail out after the Duck Inn.

PS The Duck inn is a great place to eat but not a huge place so probably need to book ahead or risk not getting a seat at a table. I think they do simple bar food though. Anyway, you can reply to me if you want to book, or contact David via Ozbenz or even go direct to the Duck Inn which you will find in the phone book. Table booked under David I think it said somewhere.
HELLO ALL!! PLEASE NOTE THE AMENDED TIME:
Hey folks, who wants to jump in their Mercedes and join us for Lunch and then a Cruise through Adelaide on Saturday 29th December?
Lunch will be at the Duck Inn, 393 Main Road Coromandel Valley from 12pm - I've booked a table of 8 so there are 4 spots left at the moment - please let me know if you want to join us for lunch and I can increase the booking if need be.
From there, we will travel to U-pull-it Lonsdale and depart on the cruise sometime between 2:30 and 3pm, winding our way down the coast through Brighton, Glenelg, Henley Beach and then finishing up at the carpark of BIG W at Cumberland Park. I've done this route before with the Mini Club and it was great for crusing! We should finish up sometime around 5-6pm depending on how long everyone stands around ogling everyone elses' cars. Any benz welcome, tell your friends (open to anyone, not just Ozbenzers). I'll probably have a sneak peek at the stock at the wreckers beforehand, so feel free to overall-up and join me too!!
