BIRDS Open Day

Serjames · 07-29-2008, 09:45 AM

Spoke to Kevin Bird today who kindly let me and a collegue park in front of his shop whilst we visited a Client.

He's invited me n a select few (Cheques made payable to Serjames - C.O. Coutts) e90posters to their party that they are having on the 22nd August.

Kevin has just opened up a FAB new site here....

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&sa...05472&t=h&z=18

And wants to show it off to prospective customers. He's planning to get a band in, some good nosh and a beer or two for those that aren't.

SO if you're interested and can make it let me know. Plan would be to carry on into the night I think so it should be a cracker, and if you've ever needed an excuse to ask about the Quaife diffs, or the other awsome mods available this would be a perfect opportunity.

I think the Birds mobile will also be there which is a very sorted demo car for test rides...

SO any takers ?

Steviejay · 07-29-2008, 10:14 AM

Would I get to clean your car?

LOL!

Yes?

Then your on.

booforty · 07-29-2008, 10:26 AM

I will be in the Lake District

Hoops · 07-29-2008, 10:38 AM

I return home from holiday on that very morning - about 4am - but would very much like to come down depending upon what time it starts etc??? I am very very keen to get the LSD fitted so would be cool to chat to the guys there etc. Let me know.

creepy coupe · 07-29-2008, 10:45 AM

If he's cracked the 177 bhp diesel ECU I might be up for it.

Serjames · 07-29-2008, 11:17 AM

lol the car stays a LITTLE cleaner than the bike, did, but NOT by much !

I think they are planning to start in the early afternoon, after lunch, it's a bloody good excuse for me NOT to be stuck in Leeds or something on a Friday, so I'll be there for sure !

TimsterC · 07-29-2008, 11:30 AM

Hi Chaps,

I may come down. I will not add my name though. Depends on some other matters I have to attend to.

Either way I will not be in need of any refreshments etc, so no need to count me. But I would like to eventually visit Birds and use them for services etc.

dxb335d · 08-17-2008, 07:34 AM

hmi1750 · 08-17-2008, 08:17 AM

If I'd known Ian was so generous I'd have asked him to pay for my exhaust.
