Thanks to the organisers for arranging this. I thought it was a useful discussion.

Someone mentioned that it is possible to import GQs into Angola and that they could be imported here too.

Where are they made and where are they imported from?

Been giving this some thought and have some questions;

1. I know it is early days but has there been any feedback from Nissan?

2. Are we going to be seeing the submission made to Nissan by the club or is that a secret?

3. Does any member of the committee receive any financial or material benefit from Nissan or the club or the clubs members?

Does anyone have a summery of what happened at the meeting?
I dont really want to get involved in this and how I feel has already been said in this thread.

But I will still like to know the outcome of this and what exactly is expected from Nissan SA

As we stand today, not. It is on my To Do to follow during the course of this week.
David M wrote:2. Are we going to be seeing the submission made to Nissan by the club or is that a secret?
The submission to Nissan was not under the Club banner but from Glyn in his personal capacity.
David M wrote:3. Does any member of the committee receive any financial or material benefit from Nissan or the club or the clubs members?
The current committee is: Glyn Demmer, Kobus Pienaar, Vaughn Ashford and Cedric Warner. None of us receive any financial benefit from Nissan for being part of the committee. At this point in time Nissan has very little to no input in the running of the Club - we are a group of private individuals involved.

I know that Glyn was involved with Nissan from a personal capacity and what his relationship with Nissan is at present, I am not aware of or in a position to comment on. I will PM his contact detail to you and you can confirm with him in person if required.
Groete/Regards,

George Brittnell
