Rawles Motorsport Open Day - 17th October - Nr. Alton, Hants

[TimCrighton]

Not sure whether there are any other Rawles customers that use PH, but there its a great event to come along to, see whats going on and have a look at what the guys get up to.

Last year over 75 cars turned up. Its biased towards Classics but there is a complete mixture so it certainly doesn't exclude something new too!

You can also have a nose around their workshops and trim and paint shops which is quite interesting in itself.

Hopefully see some of you there. Could even organise a run if anyone is keen?

I was impressed with the there Healeys at Goodwood, spent ages drooling.

[TimCrighton]

Yeah, they do produce some lovely bits of kit. My car is looked after by them and I've always found them to be very good (and nice guys which helps!). Try and pop along, I'm sure they'll be plenty more cars there to see.

I did a few weeks work experience there some 5 or 6 years ago.

They do some great stuff and a good bunch down there to. :thumup:

Looking forward to this, this Saturday, I'll be with my Dad who wished he had bought an old sports car (back in the day) me who may still/ looking for a change of car ownership direction, and my son whom would like to work on cars when leaving school! Lunch in the Hen and Chicken after then, as well.
Day all planned.

What time does it all start and end?

[ThatPhilBrettGuy]

10am to 2pm to answer my own question

[Motown Junk]

Bugger! Forgot about this. Drove past Alton today as well.

Explains some of the nice old stuff I saw nearby.

Glad I went along, some friendly guys and great cars, Was really good to have the 'run' of the workshops and see all the areas of restoration, they really do seem to do everything there. Nice touch with teas and coffee's too after long journeys. I had know idea as to the value(s) of an Austin Healey ? some big price tags but some very nice finished cars.

Just to add my thanks to all the Rawles people and Tim for spending so much time with Helen and I. Top lunch tip as well Tim. I had burger again

[TimCrighton]

Hey Phil, Good to meet you and no problem - its always good to chat cars Glad lunch was good, I must say I rate the Anchor highly, have been thinking about organising a small meet there at some point!

It was a good morning, some lovely cars in attendance. The Cobra's were lovely, and sounded good - possibly only drowned out by Phil's FGT!!
