If any retro riders are out and about near Abergavenny next weekend come along to the Rising Sun at Pandy where you will find a gaggle of Imps and Imp based cars camping at the venue,we will be out for a scenic run from 11am on the Saturday over to Big Pit at Blaenavon. It would be good to see a few retro's popping in to say Hi.    Thread resurrected from last year.  |

Ok,no interest but I know you are all lazy buggers and like looking and not posting so....   just a few pics from what was a superb turnout of Imp and Imp based cars,even the Weather was kind to us,Fridays run was out to Tintern near Chepstow,this was sorted out by Phil and Lesley Smith from the Imp club and I had great feedback from everyone that took part especially about Lesley's spirited driving. Saturday we went over to Blainavon and had an underground tour down at Big Pit,if you have never been down underground it is well worth a look,it's free too,just a £3 charge for the car park. After the party on Saturday Night it was trophy time Sunday Morning then another shortish run up over Hay Bluff,what stunning roads! Here are a few pics.... Lesley and Phil's Imp ready for the Friday run...  A couple of Imps at Tintern   My Imp heading the convoy to Big Pit  Car park at Big Pit  A better pic of the car park  Rear view  stopped for photo's  Stopped for a drink at the Coach and Horses Llangynidr     Heading back to the campsite  Sunday line up for judging  well used (every day) Imp    Top of Hay Bluff    Roll on next Year,it was the 15th running of Wicked Welsh this year and to think I only started it all those years ago as a curse word up for a few Imp club mates!  We had 34 Imp and Imp derived cars turn up. Any comments?? |

Great pics. I sold my mini on that weekend otherwise I'd have tagged along. I'm always in llangynidr and work in hay! Never realised you could drive up hay bluff either.
I hope one day I can tag along. Hopefully in an mx5 if I can find one reasonably locally

Hopefully in an mx5 if I can find one reasonably locally Hi John,pop along next year mate,mx5 are great cars,still miss mine now,check for rust before you buy and start from cold and see if it smokes and misfires,hydraulic 'lifters' as the yanks call them can fail and they are £20 each and there are 16! The road over the bluff is awesome mate,head for Capel-y- ffin and keep going up the narrow lane onto the top. Here is a pic of my Mx5,I sold it just before Adam was born.(11 years ago now!!)  |

I've got a lot of affection for Imps,my earliest childhood memory is standing in the garage watching my dad work on the engine of his around 1975 I can remember I had to look up to see the inside of the boot so I must have been pretty small. |
