Day out in Surrey.

[dafman50]

I am for people in and around Surrey looking to organise a day out to meet owners. Two ideas are Brooklands or a country museum near m40 m25. Please give views

POS dates end September or early October this year.

That's a great idea Graham, I'm up for it and the diary looks clear most weekends in either September or October. Would be great to meet some more fellow Daf enthusiasts.

Good idea. Brooklands do hire. Theres a piece on their website, under "Venue Hire".

Hi although I sold my 44 some time ago I still look out for DAFS I don't know if anyone follows The Bearded Explorer on You Tube but one of his recent barn finds was an Orange 44 reg WAD 672 J with 25356 miles on the clock. It looks almost new, The only contact I have is for a firm near Aston Birmingham who were removing some scrap metal from the site, they are H W Taroni Metals Birmingham phone [phone] I hope someone in the club can make contact it would be such a shame to see such a good car go to waste Regards to you all Daydoodler Cornwall

I remember going to see that DAF 44 in Sutton Coldfield probably ten years ago.
It was sitting in a "house clearance warehouse".
I don't think it was ever sold to anyone in the club (if at all) and really can't remember how much etc was being asked for it at the time.
Such a waste and a shame, when this sort of thing happens - I guess that they then sellers (as would happen now) would think it worth the price of an Escort, etc.

But it doesn't work like that!
