Guys a D3 does not cool down that quick, suggest be there a little
earlier, open bonnet, pull engine cover off and let it get some air.
I'll bring some tig welding gloves with, as they are thinner than the
ones you get with a recovery kit. Remember us shorty's need a box
to stand on to work 
NB: each one should bring some rags to stuff around
the EGR to prevent the gaskets falling down into the depths 
which results in the removal of the bottom engine protection plate.
and it is easier to work with a 1/4" drive

I'm in, thanks for offering the venue Heine. Will bring some tools, rags, gloves, and, seeing as I am not the tallest either, my own box to stand on
cost of entry? A packet of bacon and a (extra) case of beer?

This is getting better and better
Just to make sure the engines are really cold - I suggest a sleep-over preceded by short detour via Teazers to pick up some sleeping bags (pun intended).

There will be warranty issues - assuming they have to open the engine for some reason - but otherwise they should be undetectable
