What a fantastic day. . SO pleased to see steve myglaren from fcf.

THANKS robert smart for the bits. I have everything to press on and finish the SD after the welding.

I'm in love with my s1 24v xm again so will get the Sd finished and revive the 24v work. ..

Great to see some new faces too. . Always a pleasure. .

Nice deserved win Russ with your Sed. .. you've a nice one there.
The cx DTR Turbo 2 was also another stunning car i love to bits and slowly winning sarah round to. . Hopefully not before they get too expensive. .

Ooooo....have I won something? :lol: I think you mean Rob Paul. His SED won third ...deservedly so too. Lovely car. :D
Need to knock out some dents before I can win anything! polished up well though mine did.

Great day, great weather, great to meet up with fellow peeps and meet some new faces too. I think the mugshot idea is a good one...just need to decide which is my good side!


Shame I missed Matthews test drive..mind you very dangerous. The engine sound alone is AMAZING!! I could get totally hooked. I can see why your re-enthused Paul.

Hope everyone had a safe journey home. Glad Vince did.

One other thing, I was told by Lance Cole the writer taking pictures for his new book, about the Blue L reg XM at the end of the XM line...something about buying it for £500. Is this this immaculate one on eBay a while ago? Looked immaculate. I didn't have a really close look though. :evil:

What a great day! I am pleased to say I even left sunburnt! Highlight for me was the congregation of v6 xantias and xms with their beautiful exhaust notes! Also great to see everyone again, and meet some of our new members. Many thanks to everyone for collecting their bits and to John for bringing my Pug wheels up. Roll on cxm!
