I would hope the whole weekend. It's only about half an hour from here anyway so if I don't fancy the drinking/camping I can always sleep in my own bed

I have no idea what you mean. I very much enjoyed driving the Skoda...!

I was going to go last year, but had car failure issues. B14 FTL. Question is, do I bring one mk1, or two...? (or, for shits and giggles, three? May need drivers...)

cheers

I might consider letting you loose in the 345...
...assuming you've bought it by then :P

I think an appearance by the 1980 343 is relatively unlikely, but the 1980 345 and 1981 343 (R-Sport) are certainly possible...

Please bring the R-Sport :D

Well, I've booked the day off work. So I guess that means I'm there. Who's serious about going? If so I'll get us a stand.

Assuming the R-Sport is on the road, it'll be there. :) I'm hoping to reassemble its interior tomorrow.
