When it comes to driving I think Dougie knows who the Daddy is.

Gutted, i'm going to have to pull out of this. Having been waiting for two months for a date for my drive to be widened they have finally decided to do it tomorrow and I need to be here! AGGGGHHH - on the plus side, more space = more cars.

will have to meet everyone another time!

Being half German, I may nip over there tonight and lay a towel out...

It will be floating in the pool when you come back out!

I would have liked to have come to this, but can't due to prior commitments, as it would have been my first time meeting other owners/pistonheaders!

However my VXR8 will be there representing as it is in for a service/LS7 clutch/a few other things!

I shall be taking the advice of people on here n pop along n see what's about and maybe put some names to faces

Although I'll be comin in German metal I'm afraid!!

IIRC, the cameras on the M1 were live, when I last went along it.

[VinceM]

Safe to assume all cameras are live!!!!

You missed a good showing, showers all the way there, but mostly dry once arrived. Over flowing with cars, really awesome turn out, and the convoy up the M1 was pretty special too. When we all rumbled out of South Mimms services, that got a few onlookers

Someone mentions pics?? Hope they work....

[ARAF]

I didn't realise Sams old car was there!

Nice pics. Can I say thanks to Andy and Roger and others for a great meet. Also for work on our car, excellent service again, well done all round.

[chrisgixer]

Just wanted to say thanks

To Rob for the Taxi ride, and Monkfish for a grand day out, and the the brakes.

I turned up very late but blagged a cuppa and had a chat with a follow Monaro owner. Not someone I've seen before the have a Silver CV8 with twin grey stripes looked rather good

We have a little play on the way back across to the M4. Think I upset that EVO

Surprisingly dry looking.

I see ARAF didnt want any mud or dirt on his nice white ute!

That was valet-parked. They obviously appreciate the finer qualities of goods vehicles.

Some good pictures there Mark. Thanks to Monkfish for today a good meet and good drive out. Enjoyed the drive through the roundabouts nearby on the way up!!!!

[Tattooboy]

Big thanks to Monkfish for a great open day, shame the weather was stty on the way up but hey ho !!

OCD kicked in so car is clean again, and I can confirm that black IS the fastest colour !! So fast in fact, my rear number plate fell off on the A127

Thanks to R8Black and Major Monaro for pointing out my dodgy headlight, got home, checked the bulb and it was working fine (nearly blinded myself checking it) looks like it wasn't seated properly, hit a bump and it dropped a bit? Anyhow, re-seated it and it's now working fine, I do like a cheap fix

Jez's new electric car is very it looks just like a VXR8 but it's whisper quiet !!

[r8black]

Great day some real nice examples there today,
Also starting the cleaning process again with the R8 it's FILTHY
