Roof Over Britain Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Aye Jim, I hear there's a motion for the AGM to change the club name to the Austin Owners Club! JW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Hi John, I don't think that name change would go down too well lol, but it would be nice maybe next years Show to have the Austins together for a photo shoot. I make it 1 x K2, 2 x k3's , 1 x k4. 2 x k9's, 4 x champs and there must be more that I can't think of off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
