I went yesterday great show no ultimas in sight anywhere not really an ultima type of show noticed the sporting bears rides, great charity thing but no ultima there either.


Mad sale prices for classics now , everything seems to be going mad price wise.

Yep Mark was there today and was busy giving drives

He even got himself and the car dragged up on stage by Mike Brewer.....excuse the photo quality from my blackberry



No other Ultimas spotted today around the show, but lots of other nice metal...oh and fibreglass wink

Yup, 'twas me up on stage & giving Dream Rides, flying the Ultima flag. I really enjoyed the day, the car was very popular. My lunch hour was cut short to 30mins to continue giving rides, with only another 10min rest in the afternoon, which is great for the charities supported by The Bears smile

The Ultima didn't miss a beat all day (again). The biggest issue was traction as the roads were cold, partly damp and loading / unloading passengers cooled what little heat I did get into the tyres. Still, the passengers liked the "right foot traction control" and howling induction from the ear-height air filter biggrin

Special thanks must go to the cute 20'ish yr old girl from Oz who for 20mins squealed & giggled solidly, you made my day!!!
