Grinnall Scorpion III's. We own the last one to arrive.

Huge fun, and they put a smile on everybodys faces. Always get more attention when parked than Ferraris, etc. Don't buy one if you're a shrinking violet.

Smile at all the cars that pass on the motorway or dual carriageway, because most will have people taking your photo on their mobile.

Named because they make every one grin biggrin. The two tone colours suited them.

If I'd seen that dead fly on the front of our Scorp, I'd have cleaned it off! Sorry Kev. wink

Another note of thanks, a wonderful mix of machinery and no snobbery, the smart roadster collective enjoyed it throughly.

Looking forward to the next!

Hello, new here! I thought I'd share my photos of the day smile

http://www.duperouzel.co.uk/misc/carsintheparkoct07/ - Cars In The Park Pics (111 in total)

Over 200 Cars on the day. Awesome turnout, some surprises like the Lambos, Nobles, R5 Maxi, RS 200etc.











URL above for more pics.

I was with the I-VTEC/CTRO lot in my CTR where we had a BBQ etc. Great day out. Went in May this year also, where the turnout was smaller, but still a good day out. The next one is in April where we will no doubt expand and bring more food biggrin

Also, I'm the guy with the light Jeans and dark t-shirt with the camera looking down on the photo of the BMW 2000 above biggrin
