Outstanding day at Lavenham! A record *20* cars attended, including 2 x Ford GTs, 2 x Ultimas, a complete nest of Vipers, 5 x TVRs, Ferrari, Corvette and more. I reckon we had over £0.5M of cars on the stand!

In chronological order:

An expensive neighbourhood:


What car would phillbrettguy have if he wasn't so shy and retiring??!


Wall to wall automobiles:




A replacement Darren. Sorry mate, you're redundant!


Nirvana for crankedup:




The 'extra lights' pack:


Held to Ranson:


Bacardi becomes the first person to drive his car through the PHEA gazebo:

Now you see if you'd turned up, you could have disguised yourself as a bush, sidled over (in an unconspicuous manner) and swapped the trim over while the owner wasn't looking...

You could always buy it Darren...



The stand...



The art version... (see, it worked Phil)...



"Ladies and gentleman, this car's worth £300,000,000..."



One for Patrick...



And customer service award of the day must go to Phil...

"No, it's not my car..."
"I don't know anything about it..."
"If I had a pound for every time anyone asked me if it's Clarkson's car and does it break down..."
"Helen, can you get my camera out of the car, I can't, in case anyone asks me anything..."

But there's no phone number listed frown

"Restricted to 145mph" I don't think so! They weren't restricted back then nerd

Don't suppose anyone knows whether that GTM was at Snetterton yesterday?

It was a great day out, and I just wish I'd felt a bit better. Even so I think I managed to capture the highlights nicely.

1) Every so often some really quite rare turns up to one of these shows :-


2) The excitement of going in the ring almost overcomes Patrick :-


3) The bird shows it's true colours, drops its pipe and shows it's a lazy fraud forgetting to hide its engines whilst on display :-


4) Out of fuel the bird lands, but still its hapless handlers can't find it, even with all their radio gear! Another show goer takes a snap, but I don't have the heart to tell him that at that distance it'll look like a spec of dust using that instamatic wink

Nice pic's phil, I think that picture of me should have a baloon saying

"Oh my god, did he just say £300,000,000.00 Beam me up Scottie"
