Fast Marina Magazine

Spot on mate , lots of info and a good laugh as well !!!

I think so. Even if you don't go to shows or meets then the spares you have access to is fantastic what with the new repair panels and other lines being looked into.

I think it is all about keeping the cars active and in the public eye. The club helps do that!

Taken on value alone, I'd say yes. £18.00 for 4 colour magazines per year, club contacts, club stands at car shows, meetings, access to spares, commissioning of panels etc.

Yes some clubs do some of these things for less, but I can't think of any car club doing all of this for the same cost.

Think about it - well less than than the cost of a tank of petrol per year.

Nicely put Chris.

As a matter of interest - what method of payment is available for us other-worlders to join..?
I'm keen to secure access to parts - although I know I may pay a little more for freight...

Cheers all,
Kilroy

definetively !!!

Of course it is!..but then I`m probably biased!!, I personally think there is no better way of keeping the cars alive than by joining the club and inter-acting with other members, of course this site is brilliant too, but the club gets people together and gets things done, like the spares and technical know how, you also get 4 colour mags a year, which Andy Walsingham puts a lot of hard work into., which gives you loads of interesting articles and features, i have found it a great source of new friends over the years too. ..go on you know it makes sense!

I'll second that Kilroy!!

Hi Kilroy

From memory, the overseas membership is £21.00 to cover the higher costs of magazine postage - we have to use relay pigeons rather than single pigeons for delivery. The exact costs are on the application form.

To pay - some of our overseas members use PayPal direct to the treasurer. We charge £1.00 on top for this option as the darlings charge us for the service.

I have yet to get round to the electronic application form, so the quickest method is to print off an application form, complete it, scan it in and email it as an attachment to the membership secretary. I can PM the email addresses if you are interested.

Hi Chris, you can PM me those details and I'll join up.

You have a PM.

Ive only just joined the club myself and i think it is very good value, the quality of the magazine is exceptional, i just had a look on the members area of the website found it very interesting...pete 8)

PM'ed you Chris.

I've found joining to be really useful so far, only had my Ital for 2 months but enjoyed the forum ( i know it's free) but all the useful info from other members, the mag is great, and the members area is really useful for parts/contacts especially stuff you just can't find in a normal googl search.

Not to mention the National at the weekend, had a great day and it's really useful to be able to see other cars and know what you need to do to your own to get it back to the way it should be. There are some lovely cars out there and they are a credit to their owners. Next year I hope people will think the same of mine.

I'm a member now!! :mrgreen:

How did you manage the payment mate..?
