Yes it would be nice IF we could all roll up to the CafÃ© at 11am when the meet time
is scheduled to start...but for those travelling some distance it might not be so easy.

SO....would those intending to come please 'post up' on here ASAP so we'll have some
idea of numbers, AND...if you can make it for an 11am 'parade' of our 454's into the
meet....P L E A S E

(I will obviously be attending as I have a few items to collect from mr singh +
a door grill to hand over to jmariog....plus there's a plate of chilli-cheese-on-chips
waiting for me with my name on it....LOL)

ME. i will have to swap my saturday morning at work with someone, that shouldn't be an issue

cecil · November 08, 2021, 09:44:14 PM

Looking more likely here

mr singh · November 09, 2021, 08:13:27 PM

so far it appears 3 454s may have a pre meet meet. ill check back later this week to see if we have anymore attendees.

CrazyG · November 10, 2021, 02:39:51 PM

It could be 5x 454's...Me, mr singh, cecil, jmariog....
and maybe my daughter in her 454 AMT 1.3...frenchone.

I am not able to make this sadly

jmariog · November 10, 2021, 07:27:56 PM

Yep I will be there, looking for a speaker grill please Mr G.

there appears that there may be 5 other forfours at ACE this weekend after seeing a post on the Smart Forfour facebook page.

i, for some reason feel that the 453 forfour is more accepted than the 454 at meets.

Me thinks that is only because it looks similar to the 453 ForTwo....
Whatever the reason, it's still a Renault Twingo...whereas the 454 doesn't look a bit like a Colt.

jmariog · November 13, 2021, 01:25:07 PM

So think 5 454's in all

cecil · November 13, 2021, 07:14:30 PM

A super time. It is great that events like this are opening up. Great to talk to other enthusiasts.

CrazyG · November 14, 2021, 02:00:56 PM

Twas good to meet up and see friends...and hope fully a sign that
we'll see more at the next Ace Cafe meet in April 2022.

I'm surprised so few of the many Forum members in the London &
surrounding areas NOT turn out for this meet....considering it didn't rain !

When all of this bull****t situation will cool down and my 454 will be "in Ordnung", it's an idea to test it on a long drive, all the way to the UK. One long road trip.
Who knows....

drove my old 1.1 from Leeds (UK) to Dillingen an der Donau (South Germany) with a boot full of luggage AND 2 passengers and it managed ok, so there is no need to worry.
