Littleover here... I remember a few years ago when the Derby area had some really good meets on a Sunday morning... talking cars and looking at cars.. It would be good to see a meet in or around central Derby..

The regulars are still here, from years back when we used to fill car parks and get dozens and dozens out on a hoon. We didn't go anywhere, and we still meet up each month. We must be an unliked clique though, because no bugger else turns up these days, generally just the one table in the pub is required!

That's the reason for the unit being up there, I prefer to take money off the Notts and bring it back to Derby! smile

I am sitting in a B&B having started a 12 month contract today at a big internationally famous engineering company based in Derby, and am currently looking on Rightmove for a studio apartment with triple car garage, in order to live more comfortably 4 nights a week, in or Near Derby. Obviously the holy grail does not exist.

I think the Bentley is now in the safe hands of other PHers?

Yeah my house is round there, must admit the sound of the Ferrari brightened up my day a few times.
I am nearby too, used to see that 458 all the time, lovely car!

Not quite a Ferrari... But if you see / hear a meaty sounding Mazda that could be me.
