Most Northerly HSV's


Technically: NOW the most northerly HSV's


Kylestrome Bridge


Ardvreck Castle


The end of Loch Broom, South of Ullapool


Loch Maree


Round Torridon Mountains


Bealach Na Ba (Pass of the Cattle), Highest HSV's in the UK - 2053ft - Low visibility though!


Bealach Na Ba (Pass of the Cattle), Highest HSV's in the UK - 2053ft - High wind and rain though!


Bealach Na Ba (Pass of the Cattle), Highest HSV's in the UK - 2053ft - A flattish bit on the way down!

Old Man of Storr, Isle of Skye


HSV's at Eilean Donan Castle, Loch Duich

Snippet of Sundays race - No Monaro - Pity!
Allen was a bit downhearted (as were we!), but Saturdays times were good and with fixed propshaft hopes to be at Thruxton (Today!)
Good luck to Allen and the team

Well done, spectacular. I've been to many of the places but that was when I was a kid.

V2HSV, you should get some of the headlights off the VX series II HSV, incidentally they are identical to the VX II Calais. Same shape as your current ones, they just have black highlights in them!

Incidentally spectacular pictures
And a rare Maloo ute...good to see it scaring people over there!

Dave52, I thouht about giving you a shout before we went up, but it slipped my mind as i was up to my ears trying to get things together.



I am up in Scotland quite a bit so i'll have to get your number and we can meet up.

it would have been good to get a Monaro into the pics....the whole range...almost!

Cheers

Eric

Des, Annette and Pauline at Loch Ness (Drumnadrochit)

motomk,

Good suggestion...I did fancy doing that as the current headlights are not as Mean looking as Des's Maloo versions....

With Des following me for 2000 miles, I did notice them!

You know you are lining yourself up to do some searching for me!

Cheers, eric

Sorry everyone, only just seen these pic's,

FAIR DINKUM MATE! I can't believe that Des would wear a shirt with such foul language on it !! Hope he NEVER got into the Maloo or any Holden in fact, with that on !!

Thanks for blocking the letters out Eric, but I think you should have added a word under F**D, such as (SH*T).


By the way guy’s & Girls, Great pics, looked like s a fantastic trip.

Regards,
Rob.
