This! It was good to be able to have a proper look around all of the PHers cars. At Sunday Service events it always amazes me the range and quality of cars that turn up - everything from a Morris Minor to a Lamborghini!
Yup, brilliant job. Free parking, Private Ph Cafe, loads of space and so handy too.

I'm really surprised more people didn't go especially given how popular the regular SS are.

Thanks to the nice people who let me sneak in at 8:45 too!

Great SS and the bonus of a full English in the cafe before the show doors opened. Managed to get the following pic whilst most people were still in the show halls. I think you can just about make out everyone's car.
Great photo! Nice one. Thanks PH team, free parking, well spaced, own restaurant etc, good chats with like minded individuals, overall top SS.


Thanks again PH smile

Good turn out today!

Tom enjoyed himself with all the ladies too!











I think I might be a bad influence on my son, cars and girls, what have I let myself in for!
Good to meet you both.

Priceless pics!

Properly brilliant. Loved having the cafe just for us, full english was very tasty and surprisingly good value for NEC grub. Please, please do the same again next year.

Brilliant event, made even better by the fantastic Sunday Service arrangements. Kudos to the PistonHeads Team for organising the Hall parking and secure access back into the parking hall. Easy access, easy exit, no parking fee, secure parking, our own café! Same again next year please!

The only downside was coming back to the parking Hall at 6pm to find that Lydia's Mini was the only car left lol

I would also like to thank PH for the ss. Very well organised and excellent security.
Excellent start to the show and a lovely range of cars there. I particulary liked the S63 biggrin
Would love to attend another ss in the future.

Admired that, but didn't see it with the bonnet up. What engine is it running?

A superb way to start to the day at the NEC and great to meet to so many fellow PHers. I can only echo everyone else's comments, well done and thanks to PH and the security.

Did I hear correctly that the guy in the vindicator drove up from Oxford? That must of been properly cold.

Glad you liked the moggy smile If you're interested you can see my build thread here http://retrorides.proboards.com/thread/87745

Great show I thought, contrary to what the vibes on here were. Standard of girls was pretty poor on average though.
