JG look on the stamford round table web site, they have posted a picture of every car that was there. Sorry, would post the link, but don`t know how, computers not my strong point!!
Anyway there are a few pictures of white 911`s, so maybe one is yours.

Glad you found the site guys.

Apologies for the complaints about the banner, but that sort of stuff happens at shows. It wasn't as bad as the complaint about the dog that was sat by the Meteor when it started up though.... I will find a way of keeping you apart next year, perhaps by creating a new category of 'Exotics' for recent, but interesting, cars and keeping 'classics' for cars over 25 years old.

If you want your own area so you can put banners up etc, then let me know and we can sort something out.

If any of you are local to Stamford and fancy helping out a bit next year with marshalling on the day (the peak arrival time is around 10-11am), then I wouldn't say no!

All input gratefully received.

Thanks for the feed back Steve. I hope to get a few more of us to the show next year as it will appear on our events line up on www.phea.co.uk . Possibly an 'exotica' area may be worth considering as there was a few nice examples as well as us.

Yeah. The toilets were a problem as the council had closed the french loo on Cattlemarket and don't intend reopening it due to the cost. We'll have to put some on for next year, but it looks like it will cost us around £300, which is a big dent in the money we raise for charity.
