Jim said it was very quiet there today, hope it picks up tomorrow and they get the turnout they are after to make it worth organising the rally again!

I only took one picture and it was unfortunately before Paul turned up next to us.

The rally was a great event and I was lucky to manage the full two days plus Friday evening, including weather generally on our side with Sunday being especially nice and respectable attendance. There was a particularly good selection of models present, amongst which I admired four or five SM and a number of very tidy special edition AX and BX. I travelled to Milton Keynes from Norfolk via Middlesborough that was quite a trip with over 1,100 km covered and, apart from an ever louder exhaust note and a very sloppy gear change mechanism the car survived its inargural outing and was a joy to drive! As ever it was good to meet up with old friends and make other acquaintances and both days were equally enjoyable with an outing to nearby Stowe House and Gardens on Saturday and on site Sunday. Many thanks again to the organizers and hopefully this will become a regular end of season event and I was also grateful to Will for testing my two complete sets of spheres and to Paul for bringing the replacement exhaust! Here are a small selection of photos from my trip and the event. With regards, Matthew T.

It was a really great rally, started off a little slow, but still good fun and yesterday was a really strong turnout. So many varied Citroens there, which was nice to see. There are bigger plans for next year I hear. So hopefully this rally will go from strength to strength.

CXM at Little Horwood has always been the best Rally of the year...now under a different leadership team and name, the tradition continues.

It's got the X Factor.
