It was a pleasure to meet you OH25 and Susie, reallly glad you had a good day despite the weather, make sure you are not a stranger and come to another show in the future.

H2o over and out

Hi, the overall stand looked great and shame about the weather. The Police car was really nice and would have been superb if could have been pictured with the Met SD1 also in the show.

Did we get a stereotypical photo of the cops posing with their ride?

Out of curiosity Kate, which other vehicles are in the historic collection? Is there a list somewhere?

Cheers!

I have your Greene King Parasol Mick! my back garden looks like the local beer garden, i'll try and get it to you.

Someone also left behind a blue and white bag which contained two ice packs,let me know if it's yours and i'll try and get it to you.

Ah, that would be my cool bag! I kind of had a feeling as we drove away that I'd forgotten something!

There was also a couple of other 800's parked in the single make field.

Hello whoever you are, both cars were really nice.

I saw those and thought they were other members that perhaps didn't have space on the stand. Incase anyone searches via google for their own car after a show [I'm not the only one?!] they can get routed here and see the club.

Cor those last two look very well polished...

Looks like a great day out - work conspired against me as usual

Really missed out on the police 800, as well as all the others. I will make a meet sometime!!!

Well done all

Those V8 Monaros are a bit common - if I bring mine back it could well be the only V6 in the qwhole of the UK!

Thje aeroplane trailer (caravan?) looks like it was once a Piper Commanche and the Thunderbirds style CX is certainly unusual.

Shame about the weather, but already looking forward to next year. Glad everyone enjoyed it! Bit tight on space really, perhaps book a larger stand next year?

It was good to see the effort that people made to get there, and get there on time, with most travelling a fair distance, and cars turned out well too. Chris's collection of flags, bunting, poles and camping gear is as impressive as his trailor, which drew a lot ot attention. The Police car, complete with information sheet, stole the show, with lots of attention. Kate & Susie certainly had a long day. Hope you can find a cartridge to fit Kate. The Catering Officer certainly supplied, and cooked, some nice grub, thanks Phil.

The CX and Piper Commanche Caravan was there last year year.

I was the only 800 in the One Make Parking Area last year, so it's really good to see others appearing. Did anyone give the cars a Club leaflet (although it may have ended up a bit soggy)?

Great photos - thanks to everyone who has posted them.

Pity about the weather, but here's hoping for dry skies at Lichfield in a couple of weeks. That said, I would like to see some rain at some point while I'm in the UK.

Bromley clearly needs some MGCs, though, I haven't seen a single one in any photo.

YOOU could rectify that next year Rich

I'll echo your call for decent weather at CITP. There is an outside chance I may make it

Rich there are some different photo's on PWC but no MGC's sorry
