Sorry, gonna drop out of this one as the run is just a bit too far south west for me. Looks like you will get the weather for it.

Nice range of cars on the list.
Feel free to drop in or drop out as fits your day.
Sadly I won't be there all the way to the end now with other things coming up....just follow the route and have fun.
Post pics or videos on here if you can.

I'm going to have to pull out of this one folks, really need to sort the Beemer's cam cover gaskets before attempting anything like this, it's a getting a bit stinky now!
Will be ready to the next one though!

Can someone please remove me from the list? Having to use my phone at the moment which is q bit awkward!

I'm afraid we ducked out after the coffee-stop but thoroughly enjoyed the run and want to say thanks for organising it. That will be the car mothballed till spring but I have a couple of wee jobs to do.

Also need to look at finding more power over the winter after realising there was at least one car there with over three times my 150-ish horses!

Good to see everyone this morning, ducked out then kicked myself as it got drier.

I said to Likesachange that I'd show him the Lemons video, had a brief look and and you made the cut.smile

Had fun today cheers guys! Was happy with the 4wd as it was my first run in the wee A45 and didn't want to bin it in the wet but hopefully the first of many. Checked the trip computer total miles 256, drive time 5 hrs 30ish mins av consumption 17.5 mpg. Happy days despite nearly reversing off a wall.

Ha that's a brilliant video, thanks for that and good to meet you. I knew I recognised the plate on the 993 when I was at Le Mans and now I realise it was from a similar meet as today a couple of year ago!

I tried to get a vid today but had the drone in the air when I saw the cars coming they were all stuck behind a wagon or typical Sunday driver plus my fingers were numb from that I've cold wind so the little camera footage I got was very poor.

I'll post them up and get a link up but there honestly not really worth watching but shows the potential when weathers better. Considering the wind it's pretty steady.

And thanks Barry for organising hope your having some birthday beers!

Great array of cars!

Edit: now I see the footage on high quality on ipad the lense seems to be misted up too lol!
Here's a little follow of the classic 911

After a wet start this turned out to be a right blast, brake dust on my wheels that as a rule just is not there on other
trips out that we have been on. Big thanks to Barry for organising, looking forward to any future trips.
