Oh yessss its the black one, I've never experienced anything like it, that car quite literaly took my breath away, I have driven some really nice cars and I would have to say that it was the best so far, previously the best being a Murcialago.
Only disapointment was the part ex price for mine, seems that they lose money quicker than my wifes purse!!!

Had a great time, thank you for the hospitality. I felt like a little kid sitting in the F1 and was VERY tempted by the finance on the Exige. biggrin
nice pics Annie thumbup
They are lovely pics Annie. I think its difficult to photograph cars at these events as I always end up with background stuff in the way. Your photos are great biggrin

Big thanks to Mark and the DHM crew and the caterers thumbup

great run great day thumbup

I’m not sure where we and the rest parted ways but we kept expecting you all to come flying by us, then we had an unintentional detour of a few miles and joined paths in Holcot!

it’s official the Midget even with it’s pigeon restyled grille is faster than Google maps, er, map biggrin

5 years is too long to wait for the next one, perhaps something could be sorted for next year smile

Did I see some of you guys turning left in Chapel Brampton heading towards the Brampton Halt? Really must try and
make more meets but always seem to be too busy...

They look good enough to me, Annie. Looks like Mark and DH team put on a good day, in the tradition of the 'old' Obes-organised Northants Runs. Would be nice to see them making a more regular comeback as they were always good fun.

A big thanks to all the people that managed to make yesterday a fantastic success! thumbup

We were even lucky with the weather cool

I promise that we won't leave it 5 years before arranging it again and hopefully you'll all be able to make it next time smile

Out of interest, & I'm guessing by your name - are you Gary & Traceys daughter? I seem to remember a long time ago giving you a pax ride in my old Chimaera from the pub when you were tagging along with them in their Coupe.

As for this run - bugger I wish now I checked the Northants forum more often. I was a regular ont he old Northants runs when Obes used to organise them, the last one I did being the 5 years or so ago from Dovehouse.
I also need to get down to see you (Dovehouse that is) at some point as I want a change but want to talk through some options with no sales hassle - no intention of selling mine until I know what I want. I was with my friend John the day he bought the yellow 968CS a few months ago.

Blimey - doesn't time fly! That pic brings back memories of my old Chimaera. Lovely car and I do miss it.
I really need to get out on some more runs so will keep my eye on this forum in case another crops up. Hope you're all well anyhow....
