OK cool, so some interest then!
I'll look into trophies/rosettes.

The good thing none of the cars are trailer trash, they will all be driven to the show, so everyone should be on a similar boat. (no bringing your boat kev...)

Is there a car wash nearby?

It might be worth getting there a little earlier so anybody that has travelled from a distance can spruce up their motors.

If its bad weather on the way up, they'll look more like we've been following a rally on the back roads \:D


This is how it should have come out of Torino!

Just gave my Coop a wee wash today seeing as it was nice and dry so I could see what I need to get sorted out .

If there is a "Best looking coop from a distance but when you get closer you see it`s speckled front bumper" award then i`m in with a chance \:D \:D \:D .

Oh mannnn..too bad i can't make it for this or I'll blow everyone out of the water \:P \:D \:D

Dave, your bay looks clean enough..the problem with using flash when taking photos is that it'll bring out all the imperfections..
