Hi Rob,
All I can say is wow! All of the cars look absolutely superb, and the mark 3 on the Meguiar's stand must surely be the one of the very best Capris in existence.
It looks like you had a brilliant day, thanks for uploading so many wonderful photos.
Andrew.

Thanks Andrew, I have to agree. That 2.8 is an amazing car, deserves to be a museum piece.
Surprising how many Capri’s were on show. The Uren Stampede car was there too in the entrance but didn’t take a picture as no one seems to like it ..

Cheers Andy, there were some great vehicles there, can’t speak for the rest of the weekend but numbers did seem to be down on previous years, didn’t have to que to leave the car park which was a first. Still plenty of people to get in your way of taking photographs though

Thanks Jason, there was an extra hall open this year (hall 8) which added to the time needed. We didn’t hang about & there was still lots we would have liked to have seen more of.
Forgot about this one in hall 8;

Thanks for posting. Great pics and a good variety. For me I really like the Cabaret, something about those special edition 4 cylinder cars.

A mate locally has one in red/silver that's currently in storage. It needs tidying and some welding iirc. Often talks about reducing his collection, but not sure if he would sell it....
