Supercar Meet Sunday

[Beefmeister]

For that is what March 20th 2011 shall be known as from now on...

So there was the Mulberry Meet, Dads Day Out at Dunsfold, Graypauls Secret SCD meet and the Stuttgart 9 meet, all on the same day.

I was going to say that it's a shame that these weren't all joined up to make one big meet, but that's pretty much what the Wilton House JayKayBi do is really.

I'm just gutted that I wasn't able to make any of them!

[jtremlett]

Well if you had gone to Dad's Day Out at Dunsfold you would have been the only one because that's on Saturday 14 May!

Oh cock and buggery.

It was a bit of a North/South thing yesterday (and there were a couple that weren't on your list too)

so

An XJR-15 at the head of the queue? Thats a rare sight indeed - any photo's of it on the move? Havent seen one up close for many years.

Last one i saw was parked next to an XJ220 on my boss's driveway many years ago. The car that the XJ220 should have been had they retained the V12 that was going to be in it.

Nothing fundamentally wrong with the XJ200 - it was bloody quick - apart from the final engine choice.

Thanks for the heads up on what the front car was. I was going to post asking for its identity. Never seen one before- a rare sight indeed and very impressive.

There was the S9 meet too:

Thanks I was one of the organisers for this meet and our newest partner Graypaul, were excellent hosts for the meet. The drive over from Donington was quite surreal as I was in convoy with a 458, CLK DTM, Rev Roadster, Veyron Supersport, Murcielago, Diablo, Muira, the list goes on!
We have plenty of video footage of the event which will be available to view soon. In the meantime see this teaser clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fKoZrewYM8

Seems that a member of the public was lucky enough to see the display: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lZxkSVfJoA

The Spyker's did come from the South though.

Looked like a stunning meet, but how on earth did you get your hands on a Veyron SuperSport? Did not know they started delivering customer cars yet. Looks incredible, as does the Reventon Roadster.

[fatboy69]

Great photo's from sundays Nottingham run. Anyone know of anything similar in the Gloucester area over the coming months?

Sadly the supercar theme seems to somewhat non-existant in this dump of a city. Plenty of chavs in stty souped up Saxo's but very few decent cars anywhere.

I never thought owning a Maserati would make me feel inadequate!

credit where credit's due, that ^ was the simply the best convoy and open day-type event that we have ever had the privilege to attend

The Spykers were courtesy of another one of our partners Supervettura

Supersport was a real treat, that and the Rev Roadster, DTM, Muira, BAC Mono, De Tomaso Guara, 300SL, Countach, 275 GTB Alloy... the list goes on.. Some pics below show the others cars that made the day very special. Plus we raised £1700 for our local Children's Hospice

I'd better remove Cliveden then from my post as I'm as welcome there as a dose of herpes.
