I was there quite early the front car park was pretty much full by 8.30.
The trio of classic Minis (including the twini-mini) had gone by 9. Off to another show somewhere I overheard.
I left by 9.45.

It's a great event although (personal taste) not enough classics/older cars. (nice Model T, today mind).


Glad they've sorted out the catering with the tea/coffee 'caravan' in addition to the cafe. It could take half an hour to be served on busy days.
Hope they may a great profit because it's the refreshment sales thats subsidising our 'free event'.

Did the police sit in the entrance like they did in july?

It was heaving today - a lot of the interesting metal ended up on the field... they need to start leaving earlier in the morning!

Just got around to sorting some photos from last Sunday, a very good couple of hours looking around.

Anyone able to tell me the model and year of the Ferrari that was parked at Haynes last weekend and was parked down by the cafe/museum entrance?

If it was the black one on the grass, its a 458 Italia year 2010 .

Don't feel too bad, someone I was walking round with was really excited to see a Ferrari 355....

Is there a meet going on 07 October? Just wondered how busy it is this late in the year. Not been to any for 18 months as the car has been off the road or not having time.

Yes. Yes, it is...

I was a day out and thought the 1st was Sunday for some reason.

So... Who's up for Sunday 7th October?
