Tickets are at the post office. Despite having to go down in my £600 Galaxy, this year I feel more excited than ever! If I get there, playing cambelt roulette.

Excitement building by the day!

Talking to my mate this morning and between us (apart from a F-off big caravan and Range Rover Sport) we have one passport and three tin foil roasting dishes. So, all in all better prepared this year than most!

[The Tea Boy]

Just had confirmation my tickets are being sent tomorrow and all stickers have arrived too

That is amazing from the front, the side don't look right though does it?

Except from pic nr. 3, which seems to be a different car, all pics looks very dodgy to me!

More and better pictures, albeit rather small, on the Oldtimer Manchester site linked on that page.

Not the same car!!! Just look at the shape of the headlights, the shape of the air-intakes, the location of those intakes, the shape of the cockpit, the position of the windscreenwiper, etc. etc. etc. ......

Pic nr. 3:



A pic from the link just provided:

Oh come on, who cares weather its exactly correct in every detail, that's got to give you a massive buzz driving that down to le mans got to be better than driving a euro box?
