-We are also in the process of trying to get the local emergency services and breakdown services to attend for free advise on how to change a tyre to how to carry out CPR.
-A flyer is being created as we speak and will be available to hand out to you all.

I am really looking for your help to make this event. Being a Ford enthusiast(I know, sorry!!!) i've been to many enthusiast supported events which are always a good day out.

Please reply if you're interested in attending this event or supplying a vehicle for display. If possible please send your name, car details and a photograph so I can post confirmed attendances and car photos.

I am looking for cars to attend the event and also have another 5 spaces for anyone who would to display their cars in the showroom.

Philip Suttie has suggested an area outside the showroom for enthusiasts who would like to display their cars and view others on a 'come and go basis'. This will be situated outside the showroom over the weekend.


Thanks
Tony Higgins

Abarth Punto was great fun, also had a shot of a 500 Sport and a 56 plate Brera 2.2 JTS which they conveiniently had traded in recently too.

Was an ok turn out today, and the Ice Cream was great.

Thanks to Tony the manager for inviting us.

I saw your car and was going to come over and say hi, but the idea of going up to a complete stranger and saying "hi, I'm from the internet" was difficult nutssmile

Thanks for inviting us along Tony and for organising all the food! It was worth it just for that. The pizza was great.

It was good to see the GTA close up, I had been thinking about one previously, but they are still just out of my price range... Perhaps in a few years. Very nice cars.

Renmuir, following your Ferrari was just amazing, the sound is awesome! I should have asked for a passenger ride, but didn't want to be annoying smile I think I need to do 2 whole years straight offshore and then I could buy my own one. Sigh.

It was good to put some faces to names. thumbup
