They almost definitely will have low mileage immaculate amazons, p1800s, 850 T5-Rs and all sorts which they use on an event only basis.

worth a try ;-)

Is everyone ready for next weekend?

Looking forward to it, car not too bad, might need another polish If the weather doesn't change, peeing down here in Ipswich with hail and thunder. Mike

Tell me about it Mike.
Were supposed to be at a party at Thorpeness this evening.
We got as far as Kesgrave and all decided to turn back as the road was beginning to disappear under water.
Rain better go for the truckstop meet tomorrow.
Yep,really up for this show.
BRING IT ON.
Regards Andy

I am already bringing some T5 Wheels with me if anyone else wants any 850 bits let me know, mint floor mats X 2 nearly new plastic floor trays, headlights, indicators, and V70 P1 roof rails which I intended on putting on the 850 but I've changed my mind

Let me know and I can pop them in the boot
Cheers

good and bad news.

From Friday till now, its been accurate and poor with rain everyday.

providing the accuracy continues, rain due until friday

But Saturday and Sunday look very good, no out and out sun but solid.

Started to clay bar the front of the car today! I'll be doing most of the cleaning on Saturday though!

Cheers

James.

Keep us posted mate, I'm 50/50 now with the weather like its been, I have no idea of what the location is like etc but if it's anything like my closest show with the amount of rain we have had, after a few cars accessing the site the roads and grass become mud baths

Our car isn't a show or glamour queen however i really wouldn't want to travel 2 hours and be sat in a mud pit with the car filthy and muddy, appreciate we are all in the same boat, but that's not my idea of fun tbh

That said if the weather improves and is set fair and the location is fairly dry then we will 100% be there

Fingers crossed

[Spetsnaz GSh]

Yeah I understand that Rich.

I'm constantly looking at forecasts and the rain seems to be a this week only event as such, the met office is usually pretty accurate and shows Saturday through next week as solid and decent :-)

If Saturday is accurate as shown on the forecasts, I will assume Sunday is also and then in which case it should be great

Tickets arrived yesterday and will be distributed to everyone on arrival /check in at the premier inn car park on Sunday Morning.

Remember, we have to be in and static before a fixed time so please try and be on time

Should be ok, just have to get an event organiser to escort you out very slowly
