They all looked different didn't they? I like the Ford parts and sales delivery van just before the Avenger

grockle ˈɡrɒk(ə)l/ nounBritishinformalderogatory plural noun: grockles a holidaymaker, especially one visiting a resort in Devon or Cornwall. Got this from a local online daily, with some old Motors 1973 http://www.devonlive.com/hilarious-film-of-driving-through-devon-in-the-1970s/story-30483237-det...

Thanks Nick I would have been surprised if there weren't a few XR's there.....It looks great as do all the photos taken.

Yes the advice given does seem silly and obvious :) But, you do have to remember that there are plenty of people who are less fortunate than ourselves, who might require such advice. Honestly. Common Sense for most, but for a majority they do need this information..... What about, "Get on Mobi...

Brilliant pics John
Must be nearly every model there that was ever made.....
That Mk4 Cortina 3.0S could be the same car that I saw locally last month.

Nice to see the Orion, which as you say is a rare sight nowadays.

Sold for £17015

Nice one Nick
The standard of those cars looks great, and plenty for any Fan Good weather too

Hi Nick,
I always make a note of the dates a few months in advance, and put deadlines down when I organise the XR shows.....
they creep up on you and can easily miss them

As you say you won't pay more than the exhibitors Have a good one and post some pics

Andy

The Sierra was a damn fine car and I bet this one, when sorted out, will give you and your other half a lot of pleasure. I've owned quite a few, from a 1.6L up to Cosworths and they all were good cars to drive. Paul. They are quite a comfortable car for an older :ford: Ideal for the older driver :w...

Is it because Nick's navigating the way there, and they weren't sure if they'd get there on time.......



Andrew.

Have a great day.
Nick, why aren't you and John exhibiting

I'm one of those that hates taking my capri out in the rain. I took it to a show the other week and it rained on the way back. Funnily enough when i was driving in the pouring rain it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. Maybe i should enjoy it more. Exactly like me :wave: But when it's clean an...

Good find What model is it?

People love the Sierra's at car shows....Look forward to some pics

It's your car and you should have it how you want it But always keep the original parts so it can be put back to standard if or when you want.

It always seemed a pity they discontinued the option of Carla trim on the 2.8i in early 1983. Im presuming this only happened because Ford wanted to visually separate the Injection from what had now become the entry level car, the LS which had Carla trim (albeit non Recaro) now that the base, L &am...

Really...... I watched Dr Who with Tom Baker, but never a huge fan of any of the others.

The best kids show ever? It's got to be a contender but I'm glad that they changed Bungle, that one looks scary! https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DGj0-8hXcAEsdLg.jpg Next to Tiswas it probably was one of the best.....I watched that a lot, Zippy was great :D Rod, Jane and Freddy there too :guitar: :agree...

it's got a Renault 30 or Volvo 265 engine. Yes, I believe they are made up from parts of all kinds aren't they. Allegro door handles and suchlike. There is still apparently a large supply of available parts from the stocks they had left over from back in the day. When Wheeler Dealers did their DeLo...

Focus Fair :?: :whistle: I was offered to go as a mate had a spare seat in his car, but too far and not for me that one. I find many shows are now full of modern Fiesta/Focus ST and RS....... Nice cars, but I don't want to look at them all day, or listen to the owners revving the nuts off them eithe...

About time too ignorant sods..... Mobile phones are such a pest. A mobile phone is fine as now you can't seem to get by without one, to call and text is all you really need, but they have far too many apps etc. Are people that worried what other people are doing on social media, that they have to s...
