Do not forget to bring enough cash as the stoneleigh cash machines are known for running out of cash by 10am and the next nearest machines are in stoneleigh which is a 10 minute drive.

Crikey J, 10min to stoneleigh village?? has your car only got 1 gear or something?? :lol: :lol:

Also there isn't any cash machines in stoneleigh as its only a village, think your talking about the BP station J which is in stivichall which is ten min drive!!

Nice to meet some folks today and put some faces to names (or, as is often the case, faces to forum nicknames). Didn't have an all-day permit so had to head off fairly early. Good club display, though, great to see a nice mix of models. Was also surprised to see the new regalia lines, there's much more than I expected and it all looks really good, I shall order some bits soon.

Only downside IMHO was the random parking arrangements; it would be nice if the various clubs were allocated areas for members to park up together and kick tyres.

Anyway, good day overall, thanks to the Coventry crew for organising the stand!

You certainly can, with pleasure. Lovely car.

That's the (lightly) cropped and processed version, you are very welcome to the out-of-camera ones too if you want them.

Thanks that's really made my day, just saved a copy. I can't believe how good the car looks. (that's me on the right with my back to the camera)

The other great thing is that I brimmed the tank in Brecon last weekend, drove ~150 miles home then managed the 240 mile round trip to Stoneleigh on the same tank. 390 miles and the fuel warning light has only just come on :shock:
