Leeds/West Yorkshire Social Meet 2026 12th April at the Motorist

[RotationsSorted]

Follow on from the other posts, placeholder post to arrange a social meet around the North Leeds area spring/summer 2026. Probably a weekend day tbc

Mildly off topic, but spotted a lovely white R3 going through Yeadon/Guiseley on Saturday, if that’s anyone on here? Scottish plates

I was in the wife’s Volvo estate at the time on the way back from Yeadon dump, which is definitely not a trip the RX8 does

Yeah that was probably me, I was in Yeadon between 1 and 3 ish. My plate starts with SD10 which apparently means it's from Glasgow, which is news to me. Might help explain the rust though

Looked great going past mate. My first RX8 was ST06 so recognised the Scottish plates. As far as I can tell, that car is still on the road so they’re obviously somewhat protected from the salt

Look forward to more info

Hello people,

How's the MOTs and SORNs, are we ready to get a meet in the calendar?

Based on previous discussions, I think weekends would be best for most people, but we can double check.

I have been looking at a couple of venue options:
- The Motorist - They have casual car meets every Wednesday from 5pm and Coffee mornings every Sunday from 10am
- Meanwood Park
- Roundhay Park
- Skelton Lake Services
- any other suggestions?

I'm on the road post MOT, I've had a look at some of the events the motorist do and it looks quite good. I'd definitely be up for a coffee morning there.

I can do pretty much any Sunday over the next few months except for the 29th. Wednesdays might be a stretch for me, I'm about an hour away and I don't fancy hitting the rush hour traffic to get there

I’ll be taxing the car on the 1st of April. Hopefully mechanically all good, it’s been on the trickle charger over winter.

Like the sound of the motorist, likewise Sunday is probably better for me as getting from work in Bradford for 5pm on a Wednesday would be a push. I’ve got various weekend stuff on over the next few months, so probably best a date is agreed on and I’ll hope to get there.

Missed these messages! Mine is also getting taxed on Wednesday. April 12th or 19th works for me!

[TimeTravellingToaster]

I can't do the 19th but I could probably manage the 12th. The 26th would be best for me if anyone else can make it

[RX84EVA]

I was originally thinking every first Sunday of the month, but looks like the 12th fits the most people this time, so let’s aim for that?

Perfect! It's only because the first Sunday is Easter Sunday that it doesn't work for me...

[RotationsSorted]

12th is good for me, count me in

RotationsSorted can you edit the post's title to include the agreed date?

Cool beans. What time are we talking about? 10?

[TimeTravellingToaster]

I can probably get there between 10 and 11

[RotationsSorted]

I’ll aim for about 10 as well. Not been before but I gather can get busy. Hopefully the one car park where others will show a bit of respect when it comes to door dings tho

[BigRedAngus]

That's my RX8 taxed and back on the road! Forgot how much fun it was to drive compared to my lifted truck.

Look forward to meeting you all around 10 then!
