Seeing mk14dr's comment and having my PB open at the gallery, have a sample from three years shows ago, Mallory Park and the first RR show....  The Speedy Camp  The next door neighbours  Random boot related hi-jinks   The show lineups were on both days  Bit of sprint action  Tinker time  Day 2, the VSCC was in town and the show went on    ;D |

Quality, I wish I could've camped that year too, it feels like I missed the beginings of something special, at least I got down for the sunday though  The track from the campsite looked interesting, I'm not sure Marks Benz would have hacked it  This has become a little more familiar since...  this is a bit special,  that metro  Which way was it to the Retros again??  I haven't 'scene' this around these parts in a while, who owned it?  the rest are here for those interested  |

Christ! How time flies. All these were taken with a 2002-spec 2mp Kodak Easyshare compact, that's all I had back then.  My daily back then. I remember my Oxford had eaten its head gasket, hence The Scrote's appearance. That was a BRILLIANT car, Viscount Basingstoke of this here parish bought it off me in May 2008....I have no idea if he still owns it.  The Akku-mobile.  Tigran bought this Volvo on the day, and drove it home.  A very fresh-looking Kee-Mobile. Album here: s116.photobucket.com/albums/o11/BrianDamaged/Retro-Rides%20Show%202007/ |

 me and benzboy managed to get down the bank. wasnt too bad on the sat because we came in the main way, but for some reason on sunday we came in a different, rougher way. took us around 10 minutes to get from the campsite to the show, which was around 200 yards away. |

Cool pics Bri'. I know what you mean, 2years gone like nowt   The akku-mobile is still going strong on OSF, now rocking slotmags if my memory serves me well, how fitting eh? I like kee-mobile shot, look at then, and now  I can't wait for Coggers to roll this back out onto the road  same goes for Knightmares with the van  I like how you got Janie in this pic, she'll love you for that   |

good times,
john, do you remember nearly killing that golf when turning around in the show area? you stopped about 1" away from its immaculate bumper with about 6 people shouting at you.
my car was in such better condition then, shot on its 25th birthday aswell ;D

Surreal, its all gone so fast! Like yesterday but so much gone on As above, Cog mobile in for resto, NMR van got the front lopped off, Dugongazon now digitally remastered, Seth Saab sold and replaced, Mk14holer trooping on from meet to meet, same for keemobile, and the poor old Fiesta van parked outside SORN awaiting its fate, don't wanna sell it! ;D weep |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Ah memories. I think that was the last show I took the Benz to. How embarassing... it's been too long! Great show that! |
