I'll be there from Saturday Afternoon 'til Monday Afternoon.
I'll be camped with TeamGTM and my Libra has a small PH sticker in the top of the windscreen and www.koopatheband.com across the back in yellow lettering!

Will be there early on Monday morning. Still debating whether or not to take the Midtec Spyder. It's not nearly as much fun with the roof up
Typical. The hottest April since records began but it can't be sunny this bank holiday weekend.

If I do take the kit, look for a strange looking, white bug eyed monstosity...and I don't mean the agent in Extras!

How many years have you been going now ferg? rolleyes

Yes, entry is free for kit car drivers - but only if you go to the main entrance and don't let yourself get shoved in one of the public car parking fields.

Nice photos, thought it was a bit weird that some of them were almost identical to mine until I realised it was you when I saw the sorry sight at the end.

Cant believe you missed the best car at the show though! just could have used a wider lens when photographing the F430, although the miserable git that had turned up in the F430 wouldn't want to be associated with 'just some MR2 with a bodykit'. Stuck up T*ss*r!

Great Photos.
Whats the snot yellow roundy one, quite tasty, I reckon.
Needs some big chav wheels on it tho to fill the arches.
Is it that one someone from Preston was doing 10 years ago with a Vauxhall 16v int' back?

Its the AutoSpeciali Valeno

Its on a space frame chassis but uses an MR2 donor. Looks nice though as you say. Got an XJ220 sort of thing about it. Spoke to the bloke running the company and said it was a prototype for some rich bloke that never actually got finished apart from one prototype, then the moulds were bought by auto speciali and they developed the chassis etc.

Presumably you mean the yellow one that doesn't have Veleno on the side? It's a Raffo Belva, which does date back 10 years or so and came from Southport. Prototype had a Vauxhall 16V but production versions used Ford Zetec.

And a fairly poor looking design it is IMO. Then again, that has a longitudinal engine and Porsche transaxle so maybe the chassis is very different on the current car.
