Good rally this year. Great to meet up with some new faces.

We also really enjoyed the day with some cracking weather and cracking cars!! It would have been nice to have had more time to chat and scrutinize, but I manage to catch up with a few of the regulars and met some new faces too. It was particularly good to see Paul S. who seems to be looking after my old Prestige and I love the photo of our two V6. I managed to forget to take any photos, apart from a quickie on the way out, plus some at a garage stop in Norfolk!! Regards, Matthew T. PS. Well done also to Will for getting best XM.

I didn't leave it to the last minute, I just left it...

What's a wash?

Come on then Mr smug, where's the pictures of you, the car and the silverware at?

Nice pics! Time to forget putting faith in meteorologists?

I was truly flbbergasted, the competition was fierce and actually cleaned...

The day started on the way to Burghley with seeing a BMW Cabriolet with the bonnet folded neatly over the winsdcreen frame. Moral...Don't forget to slam the bonnet after washing, polishing the car and checking the levels, before going for a drive.

Next up, while gently (LOL) driving some country lanes, I rounded a blind bend and saw a large pond off to the side off the road. Nothing too unusual about that, except this one had a VW Polo in it...



A few miles later I came across.

A large cycle race taking place and the main road closed.



At this stage I was wondering if I would ever make it to Burghley.

But I did.



Matthew went fully tooled up..





More XM on show.



Look at that white Onynx





Nice CX's







Mikes parts car.









What was termed as a DS with an unreliable engine...




A few BX too.



Of course a little bad behaviour is allowed.



Matthew and Russ's faces on hearing they hadn't won "car of the show"..



A couple of half pint versions.






There was also a meet of Longbridges [s]worst[/s] finest.

Brilliant pics, even the one of the polo

I didn't get a lot of photos in the five hours I was there but that was maybe because I spent a fair bit of time up at the MG event

having a natter with all and sundry.

Never did find out the price of this

You caught my double chin wonderfully there Will!

Just had a test drive in it......I didn't break it honest!

Excellent pics everyone.
