A cruise has been organised by a good friend of mine and has been posted on many different forums. And we would just like to say that we would love to have alot of VL's make the run to Newcastle with us.
Cars making the trip range from Nissan Pulsars (members of Pulsar Group of Australia) to the mighty Commodores of many a different club. I personally drive a VN Calais and am looking forward to the trip.

Would anyone be interested in even driving through Cessnock and out to the vineyards to have lunch at Calais Estate Vineyard. Good spot for photo shoot aswell. Of course I would have to approach them, but I'd say they'd be keen if enough of you guys were. It only takes about half an hour from freeway, then you head through Branxton and straight on the New England Highway all the way to Newcastle.
Just a suggestion but hopefully people will be keen. Nice wine too. Maybe all of the cars in a photo shoot there may end up in their brochure too :idea:
Do we all get free calais Estate hats??? Yeah there are heaps of good spots out the vineyards for photoshoots, if it doesnt piss down like anzac day.

03-05-03, 11:44 GMT+10#13 Do we need stickers? the cops can be a bit two sided if we are together for a reason. Generally in Newy they will leave you alone unless you piss em off.
There will probably be a lot of ****box 'P' plate tag alongs, so stickers might be a good idea, i can get these made for a couple of bucks and dish them out at the servos, numbers have to be pretty accurate though
