    Where is this 'Ace Cafe'?
    I've tried searching but can't find a location.
    What goes on there?

    Thanks

    It's the monthly French Car meet... You will get a load of RTOC peeps, as well as potential members. Boys (and girls) in there Pugs, Saxos, etc... not to mention the bikes! It's a great evening to chill/chat and catch up, as well as admire the newly cleaned motors with blinging engine bays... It's not a Max power meet, honest

    I think you missed the 'wink' smiley at the end, which is used to show that somebody is joking!

    Lighten up, and chill out!

    Why is everybody so serious these days? What happened to the good old rtoc lightheartedness?

    If you can't take banter I would give the ace a miss.
    None of its personal but light hearted fun, unless you drive a seat leon.

    Mate its all in JEST he was simply saying google it,in fact Bill J would be one of the first peeps to help you out with any issues on here as he has,but its been taken the wrong way.If everyone took every post seriously no one would chat or turn up for any events at all

    Re: 21st Jan - Ace Cafe Renault Meet

    Question is would it be worth a 4-5 hour trip to go one of the meets?

    Over the years ive seen so many pictures taken of cars there I didnt know if it was a garage, shop or actually a cafe!

    Not worth a 5 hour trip for French car night. Maybe some of the mad bike days if your into mayhem but Definatly not to see a handful of Renault 5's and Saxos.

    I wouldnt mind travelling that far for a camping event but any other events would be based on their merits. Except the pod if you travel it.

    Is it worth a 20 minute drive from Ruislip?

    Oi, I'm from Leicester! And out of the 10 people that own a R5, 5 of them are projects, 3 are in the garage, 1 broken down last week and I turn up in mine

    As for me bag, I need some where to keep my food (or a spare fooking block)

    I've not seen more R5's in one place than the Ace Cafe meets, on a regular I mean, ND not included!

    P.S. Phil did turn up at the last meet, he was the one doing the car boot sale in the corner (Mike, be afraid!!!)
