Sorry I was late with the Bentley. Only finished bolting it back together at 6.00! First trip on the new (Porsche) wheels and new brakes. Really improved. Off to Castle Combe on Friday.

Thanks for all the great comments.

Great meet again
Shame the weather put most off.
My journey in the Speedster from Bedford down M1 round M25 was all dry with the roof off all the way there and back.
Was bloody cold on way home though hahaaaa

Sadly had to miss due to the weather.
If I had remembered that the i8 was going to be there I would have come in the daily or something, I really fancy a proper look at one of those in the flesh as opposed to Geneva motor show.
fella at local Porsche club meet had an i3 the other night, OMG never again will I laugh at electric cars, those things absolutely fly from standstill,may have to go visit BMW soon.

Great meet once again!

I forgot about this bit though "planes/helicopters leave/land AND have access to stroll around some of their amazing planes kept tucked up in the Hangers."
Did I miss how to access this part, didn't see any flights at all this time?

I had four kids and two mums with me this time (long story) so came in the lovely big old e-class 7 seater bus, maybe back in more fun metal next time. For some reason Umair didn't want me to park this one in the golden circle biggrin

A good evening. Marred by (a) not having time for a drive in the I8, and (b) - much worse - the damned roads round there caused me to not only bash the front splitter twice, but hit a long crappy pothole and graunch a wheel-rim. Pants frown

Another great meet smile

Good to see such a mix of vehicles all in one place.

A handful of snaps from my phone on here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152170...
(Think that should be viewable by anyone, but shout if it doesn't work)

Looking forward to the next one.

Umair, I'm sorry I had to miss this one. Urgent family matters took me elsewhere. Looks like it was an excellent evening and the i8 a definite bonus. Just hope that Vines can repeat the gig next time.

so I guess you'll have to be a super car owner to be able to attend one of the private meets?

Looking forward to the September meet non the less!
