Long-time avid lurker here. Popped along to the C&SC show at Bicester Heritage over the weekend, a fantastic, spacious venue. Just a few pics of, hopefully, thread-ish things that caught my eye.

I'll definitely go again, there's so much space it was actually a really pleasant day just wandering around. A couple of other curios that I liked.
I loved this Renault

Jag is fabulous. Prefer the original, narrow bodied 289 Cobra to the 427's... but in all instances it's irrelevant as I don't fit in any of them laugh

From the Barge thread -

Now down to £5100. Seems scandalous VFM. My wife has just paid £4k for a 2010 DS3!

£5k!

That's ridiculous. If I wasn't tied in to the Toureg for another 18 months I'd be all over that... fabulous family barge.

Loving the Midget, if they released today I wonder if the would be renamed the 'MG Vertically Challenged' for sake of PC, sorry getmecoat

Saw this on another thread and yes comparing to 996 prices it's a lot of money (£57k) but I do like

You can always look at the 993 price compared to pre impact air cooled cars if that makes you feel any better. smile

Don't 996 seem expensive compared to 986?
