A few cats out of the Burghley 2016 bag.
Discussion
Up to 418 now.
IF anybody's out there looking in with a Track or Race car I'd be very interested to hear from you please.
Also I'm looking for a few more GT12's to make a colourful stand alone display,we have 3 already but could still accommodate a splash more colour.
I'm all ears…….
Vantage Magazine who will be present on the day have just contacted me and kindly donated a years subscription to the magazine for our raffle or auction.

We are now at 430 Cars registered with plenty of room for more.
Neal from Nicholas Mee and Company has kindly donated the following, http://www.astonstore.co.uk/product/Aston_Martin_P...
All very posh don't you think,anyone for a cucumber sandwich.
Rob Sealey the MD of Sealey Power tools of Bury St Edmunds has very kindly acted upon my request and forwarded a 1100 watt variable speed Polisher to go in the R and A.
Another package arrived yesterday containing another AM Hand Bag,a OEM DB9 indoor car cover,a very smart AM Carbon fibre Pen and propelling Pencil set along
with other assorted items…..
Looks like we have the makings of a cracking R and A as our front bedroom is now starting to resemble Aladdin's Cave….
Any dealers looking in please don't be shy, if you wish to donate please drop me a mail: edwind.cunningham@btinternet as your customers are more then likely to be there on the day and
I'm sure they would be pleased to hear their dealer of choice getting a mention.

Have you read through the thread as it might offer you a few answers.
We have a Burghley House register toward the top of the page that might interest you should you wish to register an Aston Martin if you wish to join in.
It's a large gathering of Aston Martin's which will take place at Burghley House,Stamford (PE8 3JY) with accompanying trade support and various displays etc.
There will also be a couple of fly pasts it would appear during the day involving Hurrican,Spitfire and even a visit from a Lancaster.
Aston Martin will themselves be there in attendance with a factory display as will other leading specialists.
Add to this the social aspect,the raffle and the auction and a few surprise features and attractions we have the makings of an enjoyable day which is all for the benefit of our chosen charities for this season.
I would have pm'd you but you don't take mail so if you have any further questions or indeed would like to register I would welcome your enquiry @ edwind.cunningham@btinternet.com
I hope that helps a little with your posting…..

On a roll now……..
Just had this evening a knock on the door from a Haymarket representative delivering a treasure trove of R and A donations.
2 Complete sets of Vantage Magazine, right from the get go along with a selection of motoring books and a framed signed print by Tim Layzell which was a front cover on an earlier
edition of the magazine.
On top of this they have provided a voucher for a years subscription to Vantage Magazine so to Jane and the staff at Dennis publishing.
I also want to say thank you for all the support both on the forum and behind the scenes from Haymarket,I'm sure we will all welcome Ollie and any of the team to Burghley.
Earlier in the day a parcel containing 2 remote DB6 Models arrive care of the team at Works Service, these will go to the raffle for any big kiddies amongst to win…….
I had one of these last time round and it proved a very popular addition to the raffle,I'll have to see if I can find any more...
Thanks Justin for sorting these.
A final knock at the door this evening was from a former colleague who had kindly popped round to donate a Professional DeWalt 18 volt battery drill for the budding Barry Bucknell's among us to drool over.
This may go to the Auction as its an expensive bit of kit but a great purchase for the wife or partner as they can do there own odd jobs then without the need to go bothering you when you want to fiddle about in the car or watch the football.
Not a bad result for another round of pure Piracy,cheek and brass balls……...
