Indeed, you are correct my friend, but so there is no confusion, our April 19th event is NOT related to the Ancaster swap meet...

We've had several people observe the date, thinking it would be the Ancaster meet, but it will in fact be in Toronto (north york),

Full details to follow!

Hi.

I would like to support your club, and attend when I can. I'm in Niagara, and have a '72 XJ6 and '99 Super 8.

I'll be a vendor at Ancaster so I can't attend this meeting.

If you can private mail me at dadsfarm@computan.on.ca I'll send some Leatherique free prizes.

Thanks, and good luck,

Rob Laughton

It's official, JaguarForums.com/Canada first club event of the year!
We start with a "Jag's'n'Coffee" morning meet in the West-End... 9.45am @ Starbucks Coffee 6020 Hurontario Street, Mississauga.
10.30am sharp, we depart for Eurocharged Canada, ETA 11.00am @ 300 Supertest Road, Toronto.
Eurocharged is a local tuner shop specializing in euro-marker cars! This event is presented by the TrueNorthEnthusiasts Group, who are graciously hosting Jaguar Drivers for this cross-club season opener!
- - -
I encourage all the west-end members to attend the morning coffee meet, conveniently located one light off the 401...
Eurocharged Canada is located near dufferin&steeles, so for everyone coming in from the city, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, Barrie, feel free to just meet us there for 11.00am or later...

More details to come as we approach the date!

So far the forecast is ok, so we expect make it.
Other than snow, we live on a gravel/dirt road that gets to be a gravel mud road once it rains and I try to avoid it at that point.. weather so far is saying a chance only of showers up here.
Lawrence.

It was a pleasure to meet everyone today for the 'Jaguar and Coffee' event.. I went to Euro charge with the group that stayed on, but it felt so disorganized (or maybe it's me thats disorganized), that we left fairly quickly.
We could see that food was being prepared, but I did not get a good sense of the purpose of the Euro Charge portion of the day.
Still, all good experience.
Lawrence.

My wife and I left early at the 300 supertest area. We had the same feeings about the meet as "mulmur". Still it was a new experience and met some nice Jag people at the coffee shop. Perhaps another meet for Jags will come up.

Hey guys, totally agree, it was a bit of a zoo when we arrived; that damned ramp closure of Allen road forced us to detour and arriving the 15 minutes late cost us...

I've been to the eurocharged season opener meets two years running now, and they've been well organized... This time around, I think they were just overwhelmed and more, as the turn-out was staggering, and maybe management was caught flat-footed...

Bitterly cold too... sorry for the scene at the event, our next meet will be a lil' more low key...

Thank you so much for coming out guys, and your feedback is always welcome!

We came in from the east end,arriving at 10-30am.It was a zoo! Not our style--the cheque-book boyracer crowd. We left around 11-30 and found a nice pub for lunch.
