I am going with my wife. My car is gonna be in the display area which means I have to be there all day which I am not sure about. Don't know if I will be able to keep myself occupied for that long!

Are you 2 heading up the A3 Peter? Wonder if the cars really do have to be there all day....Wilton show cars, by comparison, certainly weren't interested in hanging around longer than they wanted, despite paying public missing half of them because of it. Billed to be big so hopefully interesting for a while. We'll probably sit and lazy the day away watching countless shiny, fast things go fast in a shiney sort of way, up the runway....Wonder if any TG crew will show.....?

I dont know what route I will be doing until my satnav tells me! I doubt topgear will be there, nothing in it for them. My wife is only gonna stay for half the day, she is coming up in another car. Once she has gone I guess I will just watch the totty stroll by.

If you park in the pistonheads area i thought you could go when ever you want.

So would anyone like to go up in convoy? I think I need to be there by 9am. I am bound to get lost so it would be good to have someone to follow!

it was a brilliant, early morning sight seeing Pete wizzing off infront too! Very tidy machine. Enjoyed our first meet Pete - more soon?! Thanks Fatboy for the warp speed, atom harrassing ride in the Viper at the end of the day! Privledge to get a few laps' ride when Vipers seemed to be in demand as much as the Fezz'zz''zzsss, Lambanginininis and GTRs smile



another Pete chasing Ice Cream!




love the reg plate biggrin


few F40s




pearly white Gallardo


imminent thunder!


car contrast
