TOYBOY Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Gutted. The Z world has lost one of the greats and will be sorely missed. Our thoughts are with Liz and family at this sad time. RIP mate. Quote
Ken Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Very very sad news. Every time i met Martin he made me smile, a true gentleman, my thoughts are with you Liz. RIP Martin. Quote
jmacd Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Just reading through all the comments - Thankyou all for your kind words about my dad. Although I haven't met most of you he always spoke very fondly of his many friends and good days spent with people from here. Joe. 17 Quote
Martin W Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Gutted......... One of Life's Giants.. My thoughts go to the family Quote
andyvvc Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 RIP Martin. A true pillar of the 350z UK community. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him. He couldn't make it to the recent Scotland trip that a few of us undertook, but he still spent the best part of an hour on the phone to me helping me to get a decent B&B sorted for several of us for the return-leg stop over in the Lakes. An absolute star who will be very much missed by all. To mention all the times Martin has helped (just me) would fill up this thread. To recollect all the times he has helped many hundreds of members on this forum would probably need a new forum of it's own. Legend. 3 Quote
mbs Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Sad sad news, there aren't many Martinmac's in this world, we will all be poorer after this terrible loss. Quote
350 Russ Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 So sad to read this, thoughts go out to his friends and loved ones at this tragic time. RIP Quote
SteveRS Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Such sad news, my thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time. Rest In Peace Martin. Quote
bytespc Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Strewth.......R I P Martin...thoughts to all his friends and family at this sad time. Quote
Jud1 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 V sorry to read this, though I didn't know him - it's clear that he touched a lot of peoples hearts. Our condolonces to his family and friends. RIP Quote
Chris`I Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Such terrible terrible news. Saw it on Facebook this morning and only managed to get on the forum now. For all the old timers that know me, you know I'm not an emotional person (Amanda fequently questions if I have any) and I well up every time I read something about this such sad news on Facebook or the forum. Amanda was shocked to hear the news too. I think I'm not stretching any truth in any way saying he was a legend in his own lifetime. RIP bud 11 Quote
GIXXERUK Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 can't believe this ! I met Martin a number of times and spoke via pm's, a massive loss ! a true gent and has been said.. one of life's givers sad sad news ..........absolutely gutted ! Quote
jumping350 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Really sad to see this, my thoughts are with the family, more people like Martin needed in the world Quote
stanski Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Both myself and Lucy are stunned and saddened by this news. Our thoughts are with Liz and Marts family. Like so many old timers on here,we have known Martin and Liz for a number of years. Martin was a cornerstone of the club, he really was one of the most helpful and friendliest people I can honestly say I have met in my life. No matter what he would go off and make things happen, usually from his ships wifi all hours day and night ! (I have the emails to prove it!) He will be very sadly missed and even now he will be up in heaven complaining he cant get a internet connection,to arrange the next Lakes meet and making a deal with God so just for once it wouldn't rain on the day! I can still see him , fag end hanging over the drivers door with ash dropping on my windscreen as we drove behind them with the roof down! RIP Mart 2 Quote
cmck13 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 RIP Martin, God bless, my heart felt condolences to the family, another gentleman in a worthy place. Quote
Wendy Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 I too had not had the honour to meet Martin, so sad to hear this news none the less. I agree we should still run the Lakes event in his honour. RIP Martin. Quote
SteveM Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 I can only echo what has already been said so many times.. such sad sad news R.I.P. Martin Quote
steve916 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 R.I.P Martin Didn't get to meet you but I thank you for the knowledge that you have shared on here. Quote
GT4 Zed Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Just got to hear this terrible news and very stunned! Truly one of the great old timers and very nice chap! What a big loss to the forum and especially to his family and friends. May his soul rest in peace. Adieu Martin. 4 Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Didn't know the chap but it's completely obvious he was a much loved person from all the responses . Very sad . Quote
AK350Z Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Damn it, such a sad day today. As a local I often popped down to see him in Cark and was gutted to learn of his passing today. Like many owners, many of my fondest memories from the club involve Mart to some extent, numerous Wales meets, Jockland hoons, Lakez, local meets, just-calling-round meets, and many others. A pillar of our little petrolhead community. Goodbye Martin, may you always Rev In Peace. 4 Quote
370Ad Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Such a lovely guy, very sad news indeed. Martin was so helpful in organising Japfest last year under the covers. RIP my friend! Quote
