Colder than it looked Jason. Although I have a little sun burn :? or maybe wind rash :lol:

It was a good morning with 5 of the best 2.8s out there I reckon :cool:

They were stunning in fairness. Still undecided between the classic fastback & the modified moderns. Would be nice to have the choice :D

Modern for daily use and classic for weekends :D

You wouldn't do many miles in them as you would be working most of the time to pay for the petrol :beer: :beer: :beer: :lol:

Yep, a brilliant day thanks Jason. As Andy said, it was much colder in the morning than it looks, although luckily I didn't see a drop of rain all day.

Hi John,
You don't have to turn up at silly o'clock. Plenty of other cars turning up later like 10 o'clock, we only got there early to get a spot in the tarmac car park. It would be great to see you at one of these meets :D

All the best

Thanks for the compliment on my car John.
It came out the bodyshop January 2018, so is still fairly new, not completely flawless but I'm a fussy sod :lol:

As Neil said officially the meet is 9 - 12, but many arrive alot earlier and some later. 600 cars were there by 10.00!!
I would arrive later if required and leave later, it just means most of the day is then taken up, not sure Andrew and Rob would be up for that.

Hopefully catch up with you at Brooklands in September....The list is now up for names viewtopic.php?f=21&p=371147#p371147 :cheers:
