There was a problem with note 6 in the original conference, hence 
it hasn't come over. However I saved a copy and the following 
reply is all notes to date.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    The address to write to for the RS Owners Club is:
    
    
    
    		Jan Le Clainche,
    		80, Reepham,
    		Orton Brimbles,
    		Peterborough PE2 OTT
    
    It costs (roughly) 25 pounds per year to join, and you DONT have
    to own an RS to join, there is an associate membership scheme for
    non-owners/admirers.
    The club is open to all "RS" models (excluding Citroens)...Escorts
    and Capris..there is another club which caters for the MK1 models,
    (I have the address for that also, can't remember it right now),
     although the RSOC also welcome MK1's.
    For those of you who have the "lesser" (relatively speaking) Escorts,
    the 1600 and 1300 sports..there is also an owners club.

    It is the TSSC -> Triumph Sport Six Club!
    I have the address at home - so if you're interested let me know!

    Julia,
    
    I have a Spitfire Mk3, and an a member of the Triumph Sporting Owners
    Club (TSOC).
    
    I don't have the address underhand, however, in a couple of weeks
    I could put in about 5 addresses of Triumph clubs in the UK, as
    well as the various registers, unless someone could beat me to it
    :-).

    I tried in a seperate topic and failed, so I'll try here instead.
    
    Does anyone know of an owners club for Renaults like the current
    5 Turbo. I believe there is an Alpine/Gordini owners club, but 
    am not sure if the new 5 is eligible or where this club is.
    
    Any ideas ?

�      Does anyone know if there is a Vauxhall SR1 owners club out there?
    
    How about rep's anonymous ?
    
    What would you want from an 'owners club' - advice, cheap spares ?
    
    Whatever, I would have though that a 'Vauxhall Owners Club' would do,
    assuming that there is one.  Why the 'SRi' distinction ?

    Is there an accompanying Club for 'partners of Allegro owners' ?
    In much the same fashion as Alcoholics Anonymous have an associated

    to their relationship.
    
�	so why not an SRi O.C.???
    
    Does this mean there should be a Vanden Plas O.C.
    for the 'up-market' Allegro ?
    
    Or is it the Allegro GT O.C. - for 'go-faster' All-aggro's ?
    
    J.R. (who thinks Owners Clubs should have a raison d'etre,
          such as the rarity of the car {or parts for those cars}
          or the chance to meet like-minded owners - whereas in
          the case of SRi's I would expect the 'like-mindedness'
          to be related to company car budgets...)

            I don't see whats wrong with having a specific  club for a
            specific type of car.
            Anyway I would be looking to join whatever was available

    club or not?
    
    If not,should my local Vauxhall garage have details of such a club?

Re. .56

There is a Vauxhall/Opel owners club based in Norfolk,  however it is totally
useless and takes your money and delivers virtually nothing....

Ask your dealer about the Vauxhall Performance Car Club,  I think the Astra SR 
qualifies for membership,  although they are strict about entries.

    I think the problem is I have never been able to truely trust the GTE.
    
    The Triumph just seemed to be so much more predictable compared to the
    GTE (though there is no comparison in straight line speed...).
    
    Anyway it's nice to see I a,m not alone in my love for the Mk2 tank!

    Hi
    
    Thanks for the reply, I've acquired a 1958 Series II, but also I shall
    be purchasing a Discovery in the near future and was wondering whether
    there was a club that covered all models. 
    
    I'll give LRO Magazine a ring, thanks for the number.

6.2Citroen meet...VAXCAT::RKEPellucid PussycatThu Jun 20 1996 09:539
	Goldy, one day recently, was causally reading cars in the Deathpark
	car park, and she came across one snippet about a Citroen meeting
	somewhere in the distant north, sometime this month.

	Does anyone here know anything of this meeting - and would you tell 
	me about it?

6.3VAXCAT::GOLDYI dreamt I met with BehanThu Jun 20 1996 11:025
    I seem to remember the meeting being in Peterborough. Can't find
    anything on the web about it although I did find some good pictures of
    Citroens, even a CX 25 GTi Turbo!

    It was Peterborough, emphasis on the 'was'. I got the details from the
    Peterborough Tourist Office. The meeting was last weekend but they gave
    me the organiser's name and phone number.
