I shall be there both days as my smart Esprit will be on the Seloc stand. Most Esprits seem to be going on the Sunday, but I've no idea why that is.

It's a shame you're not going on Sunday as I live in Merseyside. A few of us may be going from the NW, waiting to hear back from them.
If all else fails, I bumped into a guy from Worsley called Dave Hopwood who's going Saturday in his V8. I could contact for you and see if it's ok to pass his details to you.

Cheers,

Everyone to meet at my Esprit (will have a LEW sun screen in the window) at midday on Sunday. That way everyone can get together and meet up. Will make it easier for new faces to get to know everyone.

Let's go for a big group photo!

I'd like to , but my Esprit is still in dry dock and anyway I'm expected down at me Julie's in Leics. for some serious jiggy-jiggy this weekend.
If you should find yourself being flashed or waved at by some grey-haired old git in a red van (probably breaking the speed limit) on the M1/M18/A1 on Sunday evening, that'll be me....

Perhaps next year....

So are we also going to meet just outside donnington somewhere or are we going straight there???

Might be worth meeting at the Donnington Services just off the M1???

Sorry guys, the stresses of work getting to me finally! Pat, I will be GOING to Donnington and Gareth i'll be going on Sunday with Colin hamilton. Set off about 7:45AM so will be on M6 by 8:15AM. If you want you meet up or just cruise down there until we meet up on the motorway then my number is 0771 775 0453.
My Esprit is in the garage today to get a new Hi-Spec 4 pot brake kit fitted. Also this morning, I started to fit my water injection but it started to rain. I decided to abort that and took my car into PNM to have the brakes fitted.
Hope the car is ready in time.

Cheers,



Dave Walters

Dave - Think I'll be going down a bit later in the morning. It's only an hour or so from my place.
Will it be obvious where all the Esprits will be parked? Last year I went to Stonleigh and somehow managed to park nowhere near any other Esprits and never saw any other than those in the hall!!
