Glad they stuck us together, and no parade stuff, or any of the other gumph that was supposed to be I'm the pack!

Chaps. URGENT NOTE

Regarding the arena parade. I've contacted the organisers and we should be included. They can email you a ticket if you get in touch either by phone or email. Details on the link at the start of this thread.

Sadly I'm unable to travel the North Sea and enjoy your company in beautiful Wales this time. The memories of last years' event are very special.
To make it worse I know that my NBF will be around as well (possibly wearing a Dutch football shirt) and a newly wed proud father from down under who's wedding pictures I would love to see.
Wish you lots of fun. And Schumi: good job organising the event.
Warm Blistering greetings from Sicily. bye bye

Hi folks,

Regrettably....... You know whats coming next don't you frown

going have to take a rain check on the meeting.

I've been invited down to west wales today to watch the rugby with family which will mean plenty of food and particularly drink so will need to stay the night.

Hope you have a nice day and hopefully see some vids posted on the forum of the grand day out?

It was a very good day. Even better, it didn't rain.

Plenty of interesting cars about.

Your Coupes look great.

It's a massive show ground!

What was your favourite car there (apart from the Coupés' of course)?

(Have accumulated many brownie points today on the Mrs birthday) smile

It was a great weekend - Thanks Toby and Anna for putting us up!

My favourite car at the show was that Tangerine coloured Jensen Interceptor FF (engine bay shot above). It was MINT.

It was a great venue. The house and grounds are stunning.

Just as well it wasn't today though. It is absolutely peeing down.

Fav cars on show:

Merc Gullwing
Jensen FF
Triumph GT6
Mustangs
Cobras
Pontiac fire bird and trans am
Couple of Alfa gtvs

Plenty of modern stuff too. Lots of RS turbo and STs.
Mint Mk1 escorts.

Fairly easy site to get in and out of. Only minor queue at start.

Perhaps we can make it an annual FCCUK event..

Indeed, had a good day, nice to meet fellow cloud9, although I didnt ask anyones forum names, silly boy. And sorry I wasnt around so much, had to try and keep the wife happy for 8 hours, not an easy task.

Not sure it would've been so fun if it rained. I've got lots of piccies, will upload later at home.

The Jensen was amazing. Looked like a brand new car. He wasn't shy with the loud pedal either by all accounts. Great back story with it too.

+1 for doing it again.

So many nice cars, but the Stratos wins the show for me. Not sure if it was real or a kit, I dont care, it was lush.
