Booked into a caravan park for the Saturday night and probably coming home Monday.
There is 8 of us going, 4 capris! It’ll be an interesting convoy going down from dartford Saturday morning!

I know that feeling!
There’s just a big ford show going on at Sandown airfield.
Should be something different?

Re: Isle of Wight takeover May 19
Well. That was an interesting weekend. If you liked RS focus or fiesta then you’d be in heaven!
About a thousand cars there and only about 30 classics. One other Capri there but that was it.
Disappointing to say the least. We had a good weekend in itself, driving round the island drawing lots of attention from the locals. Many pictures taken of my car which was nice.
I’ve got a few pictures now need to work out how to add them from my iPad!

I know Rob took his Capri but that's still a dissapointing turnout of classicsStish704 wrote: ↑Tue May 21, 2019 4:42 am Well. That was an interesting weekend. If you liked RS focus or fiesta then you’d be in heaven!

I bet there was more interest in that 30 than the 970 'Fast Fords'
As long as you had a good time that's the main thing
Some good pics on the other thread

Re: Isle of Wight takeover May 19
That's a shame. Thought you had a few Capris lined up to go. Some dropped out then did they?

Re: Isle of Wight takeover May 19
It's not really not for old school Fords, more new Fiestas & Focuses.; I'd enjoy it for a laugh if you go with mates, but glad I didn't go this year at least.
