Hull Motor show pic heavy
A dry sunny day greeted my run up to the Hull motorshow in the shodow of the Humber Bridge.
At 6.30am the M11 was lovely and quiet and with the cruise selected the Sterling was in its element.
I arrived at 9.30 (after only stopping for petrol) still feeling refreshed and could have easily done another 160 miles. Relax its a Rover
There were two 800s all ready at the show. The red Sterling belonging to Simon the organiser
Whilst the lovely Vitesse belonged to Chris
Gary and Chris turn up and after a shuffle of cars we have a nice little group
Wheels clean, then a cuppa
Not only is it a rare W reg but low milage as well.
Some of the other cars
This made an incredible noise
This belongs to Howard, Chris (silver Vitesse) Dad. The photos do not do the colour justice. App it was a one off V8 made for a managing director of MG/ROVER.
The other extreme
All it lacks is an MG42 on an AA mount
Yank Tank
This was lovely
One for Richard Moss
Garys Coupe looking lovely as always (thanks to Chris's polishing )
This was cute
??????????????????????
I Know what I'd have out of this line up (and it isn't German)
Any clues
Aaah isn't it sweet. Its a Trojon which was a British built Heinkel made in Croyden.
Name that dash
Another shot of that lovely Vitty
Heading home
A long old day but nice to meet some new faces and well done to Simon for organising the show.
The Sterling wafted me home in elegance and ran sweetly all day.Lovely.
Hope everyone else got home safely
Till next time

Re: Hull Motor show pic heavy
It was Simon who bought the nightfire Sterling from us. He said he was going to join the forum, but I don't think he has yet. Glad P33 GMW is still looking well.
Glad you had a good day and thanks for the pictures.

Re: Hull Motor show pic heavy
WOW ! a Buick grand national GNX ! that is so cool and very fast even today. I am not a tire smoking muscle car person but a GS(X) or a GNX, yes please.
My other american dream is a 58' Plymouth Fury / Belvedere or a 64' Buick Riviera, real elegance.
Those MK2 800 fastbacks always look good and that low mileage Vitesse is like new. It looks like you guys had a great day.

Re: Hull Motor show pic heavy
Kate - I reckon I'd go with the Dodge Charger rather than the SAAB (by now you'll all be beginning to realise that I like Yank cars).
I have to laugh when I see Trojan cars - given that in "Trojan" is the American equivalent to "Durex", you have to wonder what that says about the person inside

A terrific day in a pleasant venue, and we stood out as a group with the four cars in different colours with the sail flying high .............
This will I'm sure be an annual event so next year hopefully we can get up to BLMC day attendence.
Some supplementary pics including some of my arty farty nonsense ones .......................
A pleasant day out with the weather holding firm (just)

What's that worth to a strapped council coffers......100k ?, most councils have sold these 'luxury' number plates off now, Hull seem to be resisting ....
