Any other Riley Elf/ Wolseley Hornet Owners?

Post by Coco_ChanElf »

Hi - if you have a Riley Elf or Wolseley Hornet you may be interested to know that the Elf Hornet Register has just set up a special section on their free forum especially for Irish Elf and Hornet enthusiasts. This is to enable us to swap specifically local (Ireland) information.

It would be nice to see you there, I am hoping I can get a few Irish Elfs/Hornets together for fun, maybe at the Spirit of Dunboyne, or maybe just hook up for a cup of tea somewhere?

Myself, Johnny Murphy, Paul Kelly, and Eamonn Foley all own Hornets. Barry Oliver has a Riley Elf that's been in the family since new. There's definitely a few more in the club.

Thanks, Woody! :)
You should put pics up there of your progress anyway, you'll get plenty of encouragement and advice there if you want it. I love seeing ongoing restorations.

Billy, that's brilliant. I hope you'll all pop over and introduce yourselves there, and if you're interested in an informal get together let me know, I'll put the kettle on!

Do all please nip to the Elf Hornet Ireland forum and introduce yourself, your car and where you are!
I will def. arrange a meetup if enough people show interest and you fancy a get together and a cup of tea.
:) Nice to meet you.
