The annual shout-out - Ufford

[crankedup]

The annual car meeting is being held on 4th April 2020.
As is usual a very fine mix of vintage, classic and modern classic cars will be gathering at the White
Lion in Ufford. Great beer and grub, eclectic mix of vehicles and owners.

Looking forward to seeing you and being at the event,I will be in the Coupe.
Beer and burgers on the menu

I think that the pre war stuff is definitely declining at most shows, unless specific. Of the steam rallies I attend each seasonI have noted the steady decline to a mere handful at many of the shows
It’s all rather sad but I suppose normal as we all age and the young generation have more interest in the 1970’s and 80’s. I know when I had pre war young people didn’t even bother to stop for a look at the shows, naturally they were dribbling over the Ford Escorts and Capri.
See you there !

^^^^^^
I recall seeing your 5GT at Ufford, very nice it is to. I had one back in 1986 purchased new. One or two faults came to light, it had fuel vaporisation problems and need frequent oil changes after a fair number of engines apparently detonated. Renault had a service schedule of 6000 mile intervals and reduced it to 3000 miles. Overall though a great car, huge fun and I wish I still had one in my garage.

Not at all surprised your 5GT attracts attention and offers, how much cash would persuade you to part with it
Owing to the poxy virus I have now taken the decision to give Ufford a miss this year, a great shame I was so looking forward to it.
