As the title says post them up. If they are events that take part on a certain date, please include the date.

Places to go, Places with something to see (inside or out), Places for a nice drive with a good lunch stop, Ideas for weekend jollies. anything really.

Good idea for xfire for owners to suggest venue locations on .org.

Perhaps all responces should be forwarded to www.crossfires.co.uk for attention of Paul our currently leader.

This route will enable him to check them out and if viable slot them into the 2013 calender of xfire events.

Lets get the ideas flowing - Guys, what have been your fav meets to date, either this year or any other years.

I did look very closely at a Wales long weekend tour but was way too expensive.

I do recomend the French Ralley Historique at Laon. 4 days of fantastic driving and fun with a closed street circuit on the Sunday all-in for around £180 p/p. Deposits due in November, I have reserved 6 rooms allready for those that went last year.

Other good ones: Brooklands, Castle Combe, Chatsworth weekend with a drive, etc

I went to a couple of shows this year with a friend that has an Austin Healey both were very good apart from the lack of a single Crossfire.
Helmingham Hall Gardens. Good show and had in informal sprint up the driveway that was quite entertaining. It is usually an anual event arround the same time of year.
The other one was at Little Gransden near Bedford Little Gransden Charity Air & Car Show 2012
The vehicle show was ok suffering from the distinct lack of Crossfires (apart from mine in the car park) and when we walked back to it at the end of the day there were people round it keen to ask questions. A funny thing was on the way to the show we stopped in a small cafe called Wally's in Acton near Sudbury for breakfast & when we came out there was another SRT roadster in the carpark & straight away recognised the plate as Dal (Good to meet you by the way) had a chat about how great the cars were before continuing to the show & not seeing another Crossie all day.

I only joined a couple of months ago so don't know what happened before.

PS: It was good to meet you to Steve, it was and odd coincidence lol

More dodgy dealer shenanigans...?
This is the same car on Autotrader @ £7990:

Chrysler Crossfire 3.2 V6 SRT-6 2DR AUTO MASSIVE SPEC 2006

£5790 is a lot better but surely too cheap for an '06 49k-mile SRT - shouldn't we be smelling a rat - or a ****-up?
And isn't this on the wrong thread...?!

The Mrs and I would be up for this

I might be able to get another 2 couples interested (sadly there not Crossfire owners though) would they be able to attend (they have MX5's)

Great, any vehicle will do - we also had a Range Rover with us last time!

The booking details are on the attachement - be sure to mention you are part of the UK Crossfire Group when booking to ensure we are all together in same hotel which I think is Ibis at Laon. If you are not a mamber of the UKC Group please get in touch through the website and get on the mailing list for updates to this and other events.
Also please lets track bookings for this in here. Booking deposts (£100) start from 1st Nov, but be quick it fills fast.

Nice One! I will start a new thread for this so we can track. Can you confirm names please. They need to book direct and state they are with UK Crossfire Group and must be in same hotel Ibis Laon.

Hi Steve,

The Names are
Darren & Jo (Mrs and I)
Colin & Julie (MX5 Driver)
Tim & Karen (Also MX5 Driver)

Would it be easier if I simply pay their deposits etc myself?

When can we start booking from?
