Hi I joined recently and thought I should say hello.
My GTM Coupe has just been passed and is now on the road.
Lots of bugs to sort out though.
Going to try to get to some rallies this year Newark for sure. Thats quite close for me.
Will put SKCC sign on the car roof, yes it has a roof.

Another member in Peterborough! That makes 4 of us. Two tigers a Westfield and now a GTM. If you are interested in other makes I run the East Anglian Tiger Owners Club. We don't restrict members to those who only have tigers and welcome anyone who shares a interest in cars.
Have a look at http://www.EATOC.org.uk we have our next meeting a week on Tuesday details on the website.

I used to know a guy with a GTM in Market Deeping with one as he lived next to a friend of mine.....

Looking at that page...

The Cat belongs to an owner who died - no idea where the car is now.
The Avon has been sold on to someone else (I think in Essex)
The ERA HSS - no idea where that one is now.
The R6 belongs to Mick Grant (not a club member any more)
As Ade says the Super 6 is his.
The ERA30 I think is up for sale now.

I like to keep the pictures up to date ;)

Hi
Thank you for the welcomes.
Giles: it is a small world as I live next door to the other 2 members that you mentioned.

Although the car is finished and legal I am having troubles mainly with the gearbox. I had it out of the car three times before with selection problems. It is better but not right yet. Early days though, only been on the road a week. See photo.
I am building a bigger engine with newer gearbox. They will not be fitted until winter as I plan to use what I have over the summer.

Roger hello and welcome. Sorry you haven't had the usual bombardment of greetings but a lot of us have just come back from a weekend in France on an Historic Rallye (we may have mentioned it a few times :D ) but I'm sure everyone will be along presently to say hello.

Good to see you on he road and hope to see you out on a run with us presently. What "lump" are you running and what are you "preparing" to put in it?

Once again welcome.

.........Neil

Welcome why not come with us on the Stoneleigh trip.
You will have a few extra passengers if it starts raining.
