when is melbourne having another meet?

[CMF_jay22]

just wandering when melbourne is having there next meet, would be good to see some custom micras

 

[CMF_deNs]

No idea, as nothing's been planned as far as I know. Would be awesome if we had one though. Didn't think there were a huge amount of active melbourne members here anymore.

---dens

 

[CMF_jay22]

im a member only had my car for a little bit, nothing done to it yet. so it would be good to see some others.

 

[CMF_evade]

you can see mine before i rip it apart haha

 

[CMF_deNs]

Better have it soon then Is there anyone else from melbourne that'd be interested in it?

---dens

 

[CMF_evade]

Not many people in melbourne anymore by the looks of it

 

[CMF_NissTrust]

well i'm sure the K12 will throw a lifeline to the ailing melbourne micra community when they bring it here...

 

[CMF_mipcar]

I'm always up for a cruise. I agree though that there are not a lot Micra members active in Melbourne.
You see a lot of Micras getting around though. I am on the road a lot every day and would see on average 2-3 Micras a day.

Just recently drove 2 cars from different yards both were the electric blue, both were SLX's.

How they have been looked after counts for a lot, both had around the 130,000k mark. One drove quite well. The other was in poor condition with a rooted clutch and drive vibration.
The interior and paint on both was holding up very well.

[CMF_NissTrust]

yeah i see a lot of micra on the road now days

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Out of interest. How many Melbourne/victorian members do we have that are still active with Micra cars on the road?

Mychael

 

[CMF_jay22]

i am one, but only just starting to do it up, hopefully have most of it done in 3 months.

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Can all the active Micra owning Melbourne members reading this please submit your names and area you live so we can make a current list.

[CMF_jay22]

Jay hoppers crossing

 

[CMF_deNs]

Yup *puts hand up*

Christophe - SE Suburbs

We should have sufficient numbers for at least a small cruise. Would really love to see some peoples micras

---dens

 

[CMF_evade]

aaron - city - will be running.....soon..hehe

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Good stuff guys, that's 5 cars so far. (counting my two).
Hey Cisco, is there any way you search the sites database to find all members listed in Melbourne/Victoria.
Then I could "pm" them to see if they are still active with cars.

Mychael

 

[CMF_deNs]

T'would be a good idea. Just went on another R31 cruise today and it's made me want to meet some of the other micra members in victoria.

If we set a date, stick to it and get a route planned out early, then it's definitely possible.

---dens

 

[CMF_mipcar]

I posted a message elsewhere about getting some more slips to put under peoples windows. to encourage more ppl to join.
I've had no responses to that posting so I might just see if I can design something that I can post as a file for ppl to download and print out themselves.

We need more transfers to advertise the site as well.

Mychael

 

[CMF_deNs]

Who had those transfers in the first place? Maybe we could find out who made them up and get a small run of them done for those who don't have them already.

---dens

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Cisco. (This sites founder) got it all started. He's still lurking about and posts occasionley but is out of Micras for now.

Mychael

 

[CMF_deNs]

Yeah I know all about that, thought it might've been someone else who did it but that's cool. Maybe he could shed some light on this.

---dens

 

[CMF_nippon]

Hi guys! you can add me to the list.Just bght a white micra super s.Still doing bits. m living in the city.Let me know about the cruises.

 

[CMF_Gary Fintelman]

[CMF_MICRA_MAN]

I'm a current member here in Melbourne (James - mornington peninsula) with a 97 Micra. I'm interested in a get together of Micras. Keep me posted!

A decent list so far.

---dens

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Yep, agree. Might be more on the list but as we are currently the only active ones. That's the numbers we need to count.

Mychael

 

[CMF_SxOxAxD]

Hey guys.
I'm a new member, have a 95 micra Super S that i'm doin up. Keen to be part of a cruise in Melbourne....Count me in.

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Cool. We'll just keep this thread running as it is for say another month.Then we can get down to organising a meet somewhere.
How does that sound to everyone?

Mike

 

[CMF_jay22]

i won't be ready for about 2 months
but after that im cool for whenever

 

[CMF_mipcar]

No worries. We can start planning in the month for a meet a month later.
We want to try to get as many on the run as we can. So better to make a date to suit everyone.

Mike

 

[CMF_jay22]

sounds good i think the earlier we start planing the better, just so everyone can make it

 

[CMF_rapsody]

[CMF_Brendon]

why dont you click on the events and cruises thing and create a meet/ event. then people can put down whether or not they can attend, then you wil get good idea of who is going

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Yeah good idea Brendon. I'll look at the calender and see what I can come up with.

Mike

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Done and posted. okay guys, I've given you a big lead in time. Up to you now to get your **** together and come along.

Mychael

 

[CMF_deNs]

In case people are wondering where you can find it (or if you're lazy).. here's the linkage

---dens

 

[CMF_bethpegs]

hah i should come check it out. leave mine at home tho! be good to check some of them out. no one really bothers with micras in SA

 

[CMF_bethpegs]

another Q. roughly where are these meets usually held? im seriously thinking of coming over for a browse. perhaps even drivin from adelaide- the micra should handle that i hope!

rough idea of a location?

 

[CMF_evade]

lol could make a meet point in my backyard..i could introduce you all to evade in its post-turbo days glory

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Ya got a big back yard Aaron lol.
Beth, We try to make them central for everyone. With somewhere to park the cars together for viewing and to have a sit down lunch so we can all chat. Then usually a drive with a bit of sightseeing.

Depends on numbers first, then the most central location that can meet the needs for parking and food.

Mychael

 

[CMF_NissTrust]

i will try and make it too

 

[CMF_bethpegs]

cheers for the info! hope you all don't mind a novice

 

[CMF_deNs]

Just a quick reminder for those interested to post their interest or confirmations up on the events/cruises page:

http://www.micra.com.au/community/events/event-details.php?meetid=34

Just a month and a bit 'til then! Time to get your cars looking pretty

---dens

 

[CMF_Gary Fintelman]

guys i would love to come along, but im away with army reserves that weekend... any chance to shift it one forward or back?

 

[CMF_deNs]

We're likely open to negotiations so we can fit it in with everyone's needs. Will wait to see what mipcar says but might be good

---dens

 

[CMF_mipcar]

I'll check my diary.If Date change probably make it a bit later. Stay as is till I check.

Mychael

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Ok. I would still be free to make it for the 28th of October. That would make it one week later.
I'll change the date in the event calender listing.

Mychael

 

[CMF_mipcar]

Date altered in the Events listing. For me on that weekend can only be the Sunday, Saturday not an option.

Mychael

 

[CMF_deNs]

Will try and keep that weekend free Considering this was just an expression of interest kinda thread, should a new one be made to separate the discussion now that a date's been set?
