)There was also witnessed a TR7 - Sorry no [pics] as I wasn't concentrating, and some horrible Metro that appeared to be piloted by two professional child-snatchers. No apologies for lack of pics of that one, because, well, Metro.
You may recall that a couple of years ago we attended this event as Sellers, to spectacularly poor success. This year, however it was BUY BUY BUY only and armed with wallets bulging* with cash we arrived nice and early to be greeted by a long stream of cars waiting to get into the place. First obvious 'spot' was this delightfully scruffy ADO16. I had hoped it would have one wing missing and be covered in mud (we don't need a road. It's grass!).
