Thank you (everyone) for a great day!
Some amazing cars - we couldn't do it without all your support.

Mark Adkin said he loved seeing all the cars again.(and was reminded just how much he enjoyed working on them)

Thanks again,

Matt
Ps
Hope the journey home for everyone was pain-free. (especially Norman who had to travel to Gatwick)

Great day (and previous evening), cars and people. Thanks to all!

Sorry we couldn't join you on the drive: we were correct not to, though as we got home just as it hit dark, and the weather through the mountains after sundown was pretty horrific in places

Made the end of the day 'interesting'

Until next time....

Very enjoyable day, must put my anorak away

.
Thanks to Matt and Sytner for hosting the meeting, and Simon of course.
Good to meet fellow enthusiasts old and new.
Got caught up in a large spaced out convoy of vintage buses and coaches on the 2 lane stretch of the M11, the speed differential was frightening they were way acting like a rolling road block

Man I miss having an Alpina. Last one I did was in 2005 and the factory visit in 2007

I_MNL · Post by **I_MNL** » Mon Sep 17, 2012 3:18 am

I enjoyed a lot

Great day overall, people and cars!

And to make things interesting, on my way back and an hour after filling up the car and driving like a nun (between 65-75) on the motorway, I had a nice cling and some amber lights on: ABS light, traction control warning light and the exclamation mark light on and tyre pressure warning light on (I don't know where the latter came from, as I have no run flats...)

Later on the thing came off, to come back on again

So, tomorrow, after I sort out the Jag...

See now? These are my holidays... having the cars repaired....

Nevertheless, I say again! IT'S BEEN A FANTASTIC WEEKEND

Am glad I made it

I'll post some photos as well (from my blackberry) in a day or so

Matt thanks for organising the meet. Enjoy the drive to the pub in a long way. It was a while doing that sort of running
