Anyone happen to know where the interview clips they filmed will be going up? I got singled out and would like to see how cringeworthy it was.

same here lol

I gave a thumbs-up to the camera (they told me to) on the way in.

I'd love to know where/when this video will be available.

It was a cracking morning. Had a good laugh and enjoyed seeing some really lovely cars. Made a pleasant change for a Sunday morning.
Hopefully I'll have a car that I'd be happy for other people to see next time and can drive there myself.
Thanks guys for putting on a good event

Nice one, thanks.

I'd just like to say a huge thank you and hats off to the PH team for organizing Sundays event. It was mega!

Fantastic venue and it was great to see so many people and cars turn up! Had a good run up from Beaconsfield services on the M40.

[havoc]

Great event - probably the best SS I've been to (even if you did have to walk miles to see all the cars).

Big thanks to all organising and hosting, except for Stuart who had to spoil things by turning in his lovely lilac 214 cabrio!

P.s thanks to the modded gtr (sounded like thunder), m5 and the 350z for the 'fun' trip home, was worth the dead flys haha!

It was fun, and I agree the sound of the GTR was unreal. It seemed to bounce of everything. I was in the 350z and owe the M5 driver an apology for nearly pulling out in front of him..sorry.

I was in the GTR with my matee in the M5. He initially took the wrong turning but
soon caught us up on the M40. We both really enjoyed that run home. Next time i'll actually use my 'race' mode....

Is yours the white one?

Incredible sound when you went past us on the way to Silverstone, I've never heard anything like it! I couldn't help but laugh in amazement

Yep thats the one.

I have a full titanium exhaust with y pipe- as u said, it sounds mental!

Gutted i didnt come across some 911's.....

Did like the Lambo in yellow, tray or no tray

Must add my thanks to all the Pistonhead folks and Porsche for organising the sunday service. It was a great way to spend a sunday morning.

Although I must admit, being called a "legend" by at least two of the PH Hi-Viz contingent did somewhat make my day.

I would have said hello but you were always walking past too fast

I've put a few pix here :-

Thanks for a great morning! This was my first sunday service, but certainly won't be my last! there were some absolutely gorgeous cars on display. I really need to make more of an effort to talk to people though, sorry guys.

[Paul v8]

There was so many lovely cars there , my camera died taking pics. lovely play with the grey lotus on way home.

I would have said hello, but I don't know what you look like. I probably saw you at some point.

Well now the dust has settled and we all had a sleep, I figure it was time to say a BIG thanks to not only Garlick but to all the PH team for what was a fantastic morning.
All your hard work paid off and with 700 plus cars to park it was no mean task.
I really did have a great time and the fact that my timing was spot on to "blag" a GT3 "party bag" demo run really made my day!!! It even made up for the M40 Motorway "works" Mini whooping I got LOL I'll get him next time ;-)

So once again thanks from one very happy Pistonheader!!

Already looking forward to the next one.................

[Professor Peach]

My first PH event. Fantastic time. I've never seen so much exotica in one place (well not the automotive type anyway). My motor has never looked so naff! Oh well. Nothing a lottery win wouldn't sort out.

Cheers to all who organised it!

Hi Pete

Porsche have said that they will let me know this week, as soon as I know we'll publicise the result.

[Gizmo!]

Raffle? I didn't know there was a raffle.

Not that I'd have entered, mind

[fwaggie]

Many thanks to the PH crew and the Porsche crew for all their hard work and organisation.

I was expecting very, very long queues but was nicely suprised by a relatively short wait and then greeted by scary men at the end of it

Very nice bacon butties served by very nice girls.

(Would have been nice if Porsche had moved the ticket desk for the rides to it's own desk and opened up the whole of that table to serving rolls / coffee, would have sped up things a bite, but I'm sure they'll lay on two food vans next time now they know how hungry we are!)

Best cars of the day for me where the red 2 door Opel coupe thingy (just what was that?), the cream Porsche 365, the Mini next to it (bonkers), Stingray (I only spotted this as it was leaving sadly), the red Lotus with its under bonnet porn on display, and the titanium / muted gold GTR.

Is that GTR standard inside? I had a good look and it is the first one where I thought "Oooh, that's a bit tasty" rather than "Oooh, that's a bit naff", I'm now looking through the classified trying to find a similar one

The best looking attraction was definitely the gorgeous red head with the long hair whom I passed downstairs in the Porsche Center as you were looking at the white Panamera. My group had just been finished shown round and were being politely ushered out.
