Loving this.

What's underneath BMW Z3?

I thought it was the real deal.......

If it's a Z3 ,it's a Tribute kit ,probably.

I'd have been properly impressed if someone had rolled out £10m worth of 250 GT California for our little Surrey meet this morning :-)

It was a beautiful replica, though.

F40 isn't bad going.

Stranger things have happened.

Thanks everyone - Great day to meet some fellow PHers, see some nice metal and get a roast I haven't had to cook

Even Bella the Lab made a new friend in Byron the Staffie... Well, when she wasn't growling at him.

I still feel meets will be quite weather dependent but the next 2 or 3 months have got to be fairly safe bets.

Let's keep the pictures coming

Byron loved meeting Bella too.

Cheers for organising, and think I was the last to leave after a decent lunch

Love the pics of my Blue VXR8 ^^^^^^

[dom9]

Ah ha - I got the two of you/ two VXR8s confused!

Thought the red car was happy Midget/ you!

Will teach me for not asking!

Food was surprisingly good - great couple of hours!

We'll be getting an elk milk bone

I liked the GT350 and not seen a 550Barchetta for a long time - brave car to own with the UK weather

Happy midgets one is easy to spot, it's one with the great big turbos.

Lol, compound boost is an option one day when the target is 1500....

We pulled in for petrol, at a station miles from anywhere - and another 550 pulled in. What are the chances?!

I saw a red one on Hammersmith Bridge on Saturday morning - must be the same one.

I think there are only 42 RHD barchettas so very rare to see two together!

Looked like a good meet.

Common as muck!

It looked like a great couple of hours. I'll be sure to try and make a future event. Well done Dom.

Having only got there just after 12:00 noon, judging by the photographs posted up, looks like I missed quite a few of the exotica that made it to the meet...........damn!

The F40 and the AM GT8 looked fabulous, not to mention the Porsches (as a long-term enthusiast of the marque they do appeal to me, especially the 964RS - very happy memories).

Dom, thanks for organising this..........the Illiad Clio V6 looked rather nice - didn't know who you were to track you down, and by the time I appeared after having my lunch you had left.

Will make it early next time......

[dom9]

We were some of the last to leave - were having lunch in the corner, at one of the tables outside with Hoofy, Mrs9 and the dog

I think 'peak' car was around 11:30am. With it being the first one, I'm not sure whether people knew what to expect and some had made other plans.

Maybe more people will stop for a bit longer/ lunch next time and/ or bring the husband/ wife/ kids/ dog etc

2hrs flew by for me but it was all but done by 1pm.

Good chatting to you today Tim - you need to get that croc out on track, though :-)

You're welcome to tag along with me next time I'm circuit bound...

Thanks Riyad, and likewise good chatting to you too. Enjoyed admiring the R

That'd be great if you'd give me a head's up next time you're heading to the circuit. I'm going to have to check out Bedford in the meantime

[Pickled]

Looks like you had a very good turnout! I was on the sofa recovering from Amsterdam based festivities...

By the time I finished chatting to the owners of the Silver Cayman & 964RS it was around 13:00 hrs, and most cars had left by then.

Went inside to visit the gents, and then decided to have a beer and lunch, so sat inside. Did not emerge until well past 14:00 hrs.

Mrs was overseas last weekend, but will ask her along to the next one - I am sure she too will enjoy the venue.

1st time at a meet, everybody was very friendly and some great cars.
Hope to attend a few more in the near future.

[Hrimfaxi]

Great set of pics, MikeGoodwin!

I'm pleased I could be bothered to polish my Scoob now, knowing it wouldn't be long before it tipped it down!
