I'm not sure it qualifies as 'retro' yet...but you can come along as long as you promise to park it somewhere else sm56

I only posted it once, you're the one who keeps resurrecting it :lol:

I'd really hoped that I'd be able to make this one, but it doesn't look possible now :(

Presuming I make it at all, I won't be able to join the convoy, also a big diversion for me! But I might manage to make it along at some point. Save a space or we'll man handle whatever may be parked in the way out of the way, so we can have a line up. If it's old we might be ok, they get lighter as they get older normally as they rust away.

I'll be coming to the show, but not the meet up, I'm afraid. Wrong direction.

I was reading the retro cars show website last night and noticed they will have a retro car park for the visitors, so it would be cool if we could get a row of 300's there!!! But Mick will have to park in the non retro car park!!!! :P

Yeah I read that too, shame we weren't all turning up at the same time - be more of an impact that way!

EDIT: in that case, would it be an idea to meet up somewhere closer to the pod? IIRC theres a massive long drive down to the pod itself, somewhere along there maybe!?

The road to Poddington is just off the A6, so maybe we could find somewhere to meet there? I suspect that the country lane to the pod will be too narrow for it to be safe for us to meet up.

cheers
