Fingers crossed...
Like you've stated Jim, the Sunday doesn't look like its going to be a SUN-day when you play the BBC weather MAP :cry:

I'll only be attending on a Saturday, so I won't need to bring an Umbrella !

:D

Hi all,
I recently bought off of E-Bay a Lexia 3 computer which worked fine until a few days ago when for some reason or other it said that the applications required activating! so i have just spoke to Actia to see if they could help to which they replied that they did not do it anymore everything has been transferred to citroen and is now on a subscription based service which my Indi says is about £100 per month. Is it possible anyone who has a independant copy of the software from one of the Units sold on E-bay and are coming to the Xm rally at little horwood this weekend could bring a copy with them for me to buy or if anyone has any other possible solution let me know,
Regards,
Norman

IIRC they could have been one or two Xantia's too I spotted !

Someone may have taken photo's of them (Most went off for some mystery tour, oh sorry was it a convoy) so they missed my photo shoot !

EDIT ! I've just found this photo I took, it looks like there were more than two :-

Well.
What a fantastic weekend! :D A great turnout (107 cars over the weekend!) and lots of great people too. Bit of a shame about the weather from today but a lot of people weren't put off. This afternoon after the raffle and prize giving the weather turned beautiful.

Great to see faces old and new again - too many names to mention. As for people that only attend for the day, for next year definitely attend for the evenings as well. It carried on until 3:30 in the morning... :lol:

I'm currently sorting through 812 pictures (!) :roll: so will post some up as and when. I'm looking forward to James' pictures... 8-)

The Prestige and GTi Turbo performed perfectly and the Prestige nearly sent James to sleep when he was in the back during the run! :lol:

A proper write-up with pics to follow sometime...

An exellent rally indeed, it does get better and better each year. Roll on next years!

It was great to meet up with old friends again, and to meet some of the new CCC members I have corresponded with since taking on Xm Column.

Looks like Ill NOW forever have the grumble look every time I want to attend! - along the lines of huh great annverversary Paul!

But there we are.. a small compremise. Wishing I could have attended... looked a rather larger meet then last year..

Not seen any Xantia close ups yet! even though they have formally been introduced to the rally..

Will's SED ( I assume the Manderin H plate) and MTXM's 24v both looking sparkleing as always! I hope I can get mine looking that good for next year...
