The official count is now in and the total comes to an amazing 400 no more, no less and not a fix, it was spot on 400, I am totally amazed, thank you each and every one of you for turning up, especially as the forecast was for heavy rain, it didn't (only on the way back home), I must also say a big thank you to all that helped out on the day, you did one cracking job once again, (too many to mention) the figure branded around on the day was wrong due to so many turning up in one go that I had to rip some tickets out of the book and collect further up the queue to try and get people in quicker and so the order and plan went out of the window but the back up count worked a treat and was right when the tickets were sorted out.

So good to meet some great people there this time (didn't get chance last year), again there are too many to mention but you know who you are.

I hope you all enjoyed the weekend and had a safe journey home.

Not long home - spells of heavy rain on the way especially around Birmingham & M5, but thankfully it held off at Chatsworth and we had sunshine instead.

Many thanks for a well organised day.

A big thanks from the Kent contingent. Well worth the trip from our corner of the country. We were gobsmacked by the attendance and Chatsworth made a great venue.

Cheers

I obviously got there too early as I arrived in rain with the roof off. Much the same on the way home as there was a torrential downpour as I entered the village. Cured with a couple of pints in the pub opposite and a coal fire.

Good turnout - well done to all who attended.

Unbelievably well organised. Fantastic sight as you came over the bridge and looked right.

Makes you wonder why when so many people made the effort to turn up in spite of the forecast that they're not made anymore.

Bring on the next one

Many thanks for organising this event Kevin and helpers, was an absolutely great day out, from the run in, seeing all the cars parked up from the approach road until the trip home and 'spotting' the marque on the way home again.

Fantastic to see so many examples out and about.

Brilliant day, thank you ALL so so much for making it what it was. I'm a newbie to the TVR scene and was made to feel welcome immediately.

Thanks.

SEAC doesn't sound too shabby either. I heard you pull up in Baslow when the numpty wagon moved out of the way.
