Yes the TR drivers stand looked really fantastic. A real credit to everyone. Here are a few pictures to wet your appetites!

I just would like to thank Phil not just for organising this

But also giving me a lift in and out of the nec.

I will tell you this my feet are killing me from walking about

I did not think it was going to be such a big a show

That's 2 full days now and I can honestly say I have still not seen it all yet

I have had some really good comments about the car with Rimmer brothers over looking at it

Analysing all the modifications and walking away and nodding in acceptance (I hope..[:D])

On the way out tonight I stopped Mike Brewer (from wheeler dealer) had a short chat

And a photo with him â€¦[:D]

If it's not broke don't fix it.

Good comments - I should think so, your car looked stunning. It was good to meet you.

The Rover P5 & 6 stands, the SD1 stand, the other Triumph stands, the Austin vans, there are a couple of super caravans and camper vans, actually the whole place is brilliant!

Have a great day.

Wow! What a fantastic day. Just got in-only complaint- not enough hours in a day. TRDC stand was brilliant, I'm glad I managed to meet a few of you. I did get my picture with Mike & Edd and chatted to them both. (Brilliant guys)They are not doing a 7 this series but say they are planning one for next series. Edd even asked me if mine was for sale. I loved it all, but my favorites had to be the Mustangs- especially the Shelby- and the TVR's - and the Apollo. Thanks Guy, for the sit in your lovely 7. I'll be going next year 4 defo. x

Stevie

Thanks for showing me and my brother the photos of all those Imps on Friday. Is there anyway you could post them on the forum?

Also could someone please take a photo of the Austin "woody" Stationwagon as I realised I had forgot to take a picture? Only 3 like that left in the world.

Please Please
John

The "Woody" is close to the where the Vanden Plas stand is. It is positioned next to the Austin Hurse. Up the stairs where the Auto spares are being sold. (sorry can't remember the hall number.)
