Well the sun is out so as long as it stays dry the 456 will be out tonight (windscreen wipers packed up 2 weeks ago in a heavy downpour on an Italian Autostrada at 130 mph )

It was a small turnout and no Ferrari.

Saab Viggen, two Z06's, NSX, Exige and BMW M Coupe. Those cold dark nights have taken their toll already.

Still, I think we enjoyed it. There was a lady a little influenced by drink who asked if the Corvettes were Ferraris so we said they were but after kidding her for a while, we told her twice they were Corvettes and off she went saying they were lovely Ferraris. LOL. She sat in the Corvettes and then the NSX and said she was going to give us her honest opinion and then said she couldn't decide.

Small turnout or not, it's always nice to be able to talk about and drool over cars.

Perhaps we should leave it for a while and see if we can get a better turnout when the acceptable weather comes back round? I liked Lusifers idea of a S Wales PH run, so maybe have a think about that...?

It might have been a small turnout, but all the cars were nice. I just wished I had remember my coat. It was freezing. It was nice to meet the owners as well. A run sounds like a good idea.

The British weather is unpredictable and bad and the Welsh weather is even worse, even in the summer. It's a shame we don't have an American diner in Cardiff where we could look at the cars from inside.

There is always the possibility of a Christmas run one dry crisp day but what with the one hour of daylight we get, it might not be brilliant conditions and everywhere is shut.

Still, there's always a run to Avon Park raceway next year to drag them cars down the quarter mile.

Looks like the 456 has a faulty / blown Cat sensor. Being collected and taken back to Bob Houghton's in Northleach tomorrow. Hopefully not a big job.

Will bring it up next time.

Good laugh again, though it was a lot colder than last time.

Nice to meet everyone again
