Hi Derek, yep..I'm taking your old friend Inca.. Are you taking one of your fine motor vehicles along?

Yup. Look out for a rather purple Mk1 Escort.

Look forward to seeing the inca again. Are you booked in to the show ground?

Ok, will do. Yep, luckily I pre-booked some months ago, so will be in the show itself.

Yup. Me too. I might be parked next to another previous project inca too. That's 2 more Dolomites than last year...................there weren't any sadly.

See you tomorrow.

Some mighty fine cars from a mighty fine show.

We start with a very, very nice pair..

Impish63's Sprint and Autonet7's Mk1 Escort..





One for JPB..





A one owner, 41,000, totally original Golf..incredibly clean car!







Never seen so many Healey's in one place..









My brother had one of these..the memories of it always make me smile..









I counted fourteen Tigers!











Not my cup of tea, but very cleverly done..anyone recognise the rear lights?



Jimmy Dean was there..



I would of gladly taken this home...gorgeous car..





The best Capri..



Amazing paint job..



I havn't seen one of these in years!



Mad and bad..



Lovely..



A rare car now..

Kev's SD1, Lee's PI and my auto ready for the convoy home..



Many thanks to all involved for a fabulous day.

Maybe because this event was not adverstised on this site or in the club mag and no mention in any other site or mag i have read!
Could the north Hants rep not make this a club event?

Thanks for that Fiat 600, must get on with my smaller, cuter Fiat of the period. Haven't been up to visit the car in many months.

The "mystery" rear lights on that amazing Capri:

look very much like Peugeot 406 Coupé ones:-




Yep, that's the beasties.

Great turnout. Sooooooo many cars I wanted to drive home. How bizarre Reg, I also wanted that Peugeot. I used to have one. Great barge.

Good to meet again Reg and your Sprint looks fooking amazing. A real credit to all your hard work. Love the underside. Possibly the cleanest I've seen on a Sprint.......ever.

I want an Inca...................................

I was there in the Sprint but unfortunately they had closed entries long before i was aware of this. Nice to meet you Reg and i agree with Autonet7, a very nice Inca you have there.
That's the longest run i have had since i got the Sprint back on the road and apart from the Overdrive playing up, which i hope to sort this weekend , all was well.

Was great to catch up with Mike, Chris and Derek..it's what its all about..

Glad to read that your Sprint is behaving and beginning to reward you Mike..you have the most incredible patience!

Thanks for the compliments..it's amazing what a good paint job can cover up!

Book early for next year folks..you won't regret it..
