Top quality day and the weather was fabulous as well.
Spotted....

F40 (x2), Enzo, 308, 348ts, 355, 360, 430, 458 and Daytona.
Gallardo spider and a lush silver 400GT, 1928 RR, 40's Bentleys, loads of E-types and a D-type, DB6&7s and a beautiful 5. Lotus stuff from pretty much every decade of the company. Jensen Interceptor, Marcos Mantula, Aerial Atom, Camaros, Corvettes, Challengers and Chargers. 240z, old Anglias, works rally 70's Skoda....
There was an awful lot of nice stuff. Both cars and err, passenger seat decorations.
Oh and 2 very clean mk1s and my solitary mk2.

Yeah got some quite nice stuff but I don't get on with image hosting sites for some reason. I could put 20 into my gallery I suppose...

You parked pretty close to that hog roast wagon Rob?! I had to tell a kid off for pawing at your passenger wing when his mum wasn't watching what he was doing.. I didn't have the heart to tell him to stop jumping on your bonnet though :mrgreen:

Some nice stuff there this year as usual, seemed smaller though.
If you can't see the angle, you're in trouble.

I was there too! Yes it did seem a bit smaller than usual...but two F40s... :thumleft:

Must get my GTR on there, keep meaning to. :mrgreen:

I spotted three minty MK1s actually, two MK1 club boyos (Ken and friend) so had a nice chat with them.

Talking of seeing children on cars...I did see a stupid woman sit her child on the bonnet of a testerossa. :pale:

Well just whittled my photos down and since I only took the camera out for about 45mins I've only got about 50 decent shots with maybe a dozen of those being really pleasing. I might have another go at Imageshack... maybe.

PS. Sorry I missed you Olly. Yeah I did worry about chip fat! Got told where to park otherwise I'd have been next to the D type, or maybe an old Lotus.
