This is up and running again...


Wednesday April 6th

16:30-21:00

We went in the R a few times last year, one night well over 1000 cars, some real beauties and a few deem it good enough to travel miles to attend!

£3 entry

Might pop along in Victoria Pembleton if the weather is good. Maybe not the first one as I don't finish work until 5.30 and I have to get home, fed, changed and back out again - might wait until the evenings get a bit longer...

Thanks for the heads up though! thumbup

good meet:

here's a few of my favourites from wednesday!


Z8 - cant believe the money these are fetching nowadays!



+8 Speedster - nice




Lovely little Simca



Bel Air




Immaculate little 126




very straight Alfa Junior! bet the panel gaps & paint weren't this neat out of the factory!



T-Bird




And I thought the Pembleton was basic!! This looks like it's been a long labour of love, but a little too shiny for my liking, i like em oily and worn!



first 4C i've seen up close in the flesh - still undecided





Auto Union 303 - not seen one of these before. Very European shape! looks almost french!



Anyone any ideas what this nice little bit of british fibreglass is? Guessing its spridget based...



cracked, worn, oily and smelly... looks like its been well loved!


then there was this mad max inspired, built in the shed with scaffolding and sheet ali monstrosity... still made me smile though.

Yesterday I attended this for the first time. Perfect weather and a great atmosphere. Well worth the £3 admission fee.

Edit:
I've uploaded some photos (including a white DB11)...

Always a huge turnout, I almost got the car out last night but weather was overcast. Unfortunately I can't make the next (last one of the year) either so I'll be back in the Spring.

The 'Simca' you pictured is a Fiat, surely?

Ha ha, this is a good one, its registered as a Fiat but has a Simca badge but they are effectively the same car - Fiat Topolino and Simca 5.

Simca assembled the Fiat Topolino in the 1930's then later sold the car as a Simca 5. biggrin
