You may wish to re-phrase that.

Chris's trailer looks good there.

Done.


I'll let Chris tell you all about the crowds that swarmed his trailer.

Thanks for the flattering pics Rich. :roll: :lol:

I was so busy looking at other cars and talking to people today I took no pictures of our stand at all. :roll:

The trailer proved very popular. I was around all the time but lots of people took interest and I spoke with quite a few that seemed to like it.

Gets lots of notice on the road as well. Pretty sure someone trying to get a good look in a laguna about 3 miles from home nearly wrote my car off from steering as they turned. :roll:

I have loads of others from today which I'll add later.

So these are just a couple from Saturday.

My brothers 827 (ex my R reg) my fastback and Rich C's fastback sat so a chap could take a photo of them

Image

Our camp before Rich's tent was up. It was a totally random photo this. Just timing that Rich stood to cover the front of the trailer as though I've planted it there. :lol:

Image

The stand on Saturday. Better than some, Saturday is the quiet day. Far busier on Sunday.

Chris, is your trailer still open in the front or what does it look like now?

I wish I could participate in a meeting. Maybe some day...

Looks like it was a good weekend, good looking cars and really like the trailer as well!!
I have always wanted to come over to the UK during summer and checked out a few car shows! Better start saving or win lotto!
