Looked very good indeed. I wish I could find garden find cars, though technically mine sort of are, one from a barn, the other from a field.
Next year we need to park in registration order for the full effect.

It was a good one. Though he was worried about it running hot for some reason. It runs cooler than mine!
Absolutely great idea Will.... we should do that. A row of mk1s in reg order ...or even RP order, then a row of mk2's in their RP order.
Could be fun!

Russ
it rises but needs a jiggle with the lever to play citrobatics.
I've WD40'd the adjuster but not putting it in the garage till they give me the other one back.
Am off to Godmanchester in it on Friday.
WIll, I'd rather a garage find than a garden find.

...and here they are. Manage to whittle them down to a much lower number so here's some from Sunday:
En route to Little Horwood from the hotel on the Sunday Morning we had an impromptu convoy with Sandre/Caffiend with her BX TZD Turbo through all most of Milton Keynes finest roundabouts...
Also spotted James in his Prestige coming the opposite way so had to take a quick snap...
The field was filling up nicely, and here's a view from the back of the field...
Jason's V6 looking very smart indeed, and Darren's XM V6 in the background. Both went to go onto win 1st Prizes for Xantia and XM...
My C4 looking deceptively clean. Eagle eyed people will spot the XM Bodykit stashed in it...
Was great to see this CX again as it used to be one of ours - a DTR Turbo 2...
...and this GTi Turbo 2 as well:
This particular CX won Best CX this year - the owner has owned it from new!
Lightly modified XM...
Lovely CX Safari...
This CX 25 Pallas IE was a lovely car:
A trio of Visa GTi's!!
BXs were out in force:
As were the XMs and owners:
This S1 XM was tasty...
Great Xantia Line-up, with most being V6s and some Activa's!
Jason's V6 again:
Dean's Activa:
A sea of Citroens:
A very early CX 2200 Diesel!!
CX Line-up:
XM 2.5TDness:
Some more CXs:
Prize-giving and Raffle:
Ron's Monkey got a new home...
Bon Voyage...
James' Prestige:
A nice pairing...
Want... Jon's DS3R:
Chris's V6:
A Family Re-union: Roger's V6 and Roger's Sister's V6. Funnily enough Jason has bought the Silver V6 from dad - a fitting new home!
James leaving:

I forgot to take a photo of the badge on this CX, but it was badged as a french car...it said TRD turbo instead of DTR turbo.
Apparently the TRD moniker was changed for the UK market as it sounded like Turd.

I thought you would have noticed the badging, Franklin.
