Keith's NEC Pics

[keithyboy]

The NEC lighting still wreaks havoc with my camera but they are better than last year's. Good show again with a very eclectic mix of cars.















Slottage!





Clarkson's Peel P50



The Escorts were out in force with a full house of AVO Mk1s:











and a running flush of MKIIs





Nice Manta

[keithyboy]

Why didn't we get these in the UK?



This was very subtle:







Can't remember the last time I saw one of these:



Awfulsod powered 500:





Minty 180B at one of the exits:



~Dragged out of a barn a couple of weeks ago (If you think you'll be the first to say "I'd roll that" you're too late as I said exactly that at about 1pm:



Grrr



My car of the show:













Great car - curse word picture:











Great paint:

[keithyboy]

Last batch:

Plenty of nice Dubs:





Never tire of seeing this:



Mid-resto GK:



Anyone for marmite?



Why there were only 2 cars on a massive volvo stand is anyone's guess.

I think the car at the back was some sort of kit car based on a VW Passat going off the lights. Whatever it was, it drew the crowds.



















And finally, from the car park:

[rooster]

that Volvo 262c is lovely!!

[steveandhis244]

262c is gorgeousssss! mmmm!!

I see they are all saying the same thing on the VOC forums - lack of cars and massive stand!

[Samage]

Was a great weekend, was helping man the ABVWOC stand for quite a lot of the time ;D

(That's the stand with the green Bug and silver 'flake Buggy. Owners of both are friends of mine. Sadly none of my cars were there because they look a bit s**te.)

Did you see my mates red scooter car it was inside.It was mine once i sold it to him.

[datman]

your 'car of the show' 70 Charger lives up the road from me in East Grinstead owned by a bloke called Clive. Minty 180B came from me to its current owner.

The gold one? The amount of space for your legs in tha back of those things is incredible.

Very hard to photograph due to it's length so have an SM and a DS instead.

That's the one just out of the SM shot.....i was staggered by it's length! I don't remember them being that long. I need one now!

[alolympic]

I thought it was a great show. Haven't been for about 5 years and it seemed far better than I remember it being. Too busy on Saturday PM though....
Stupidly missed out on a Charity passenger ride in a Muira. Didn't decide until early afternoon that I thought it is worth the cash, by then, car was fully booked. Doh!

[leannemk1xr2]

my husband was over at the show and he said it was the best show he had ever been to
i'm gutted i missed it but sure my kiddies won't be small forever

Ditto! Incidentally, I'd much rather have an EB110 than a Veyron, as it's much more in tune with Ettore's ethos.

I got a pic of the CX!

[dollywobbler]

The CX is a prestige, running the same wheelbase as the estate, hence the oodles of legroom! ;D

Behind it (out of shot) is Projet L, the forerunner of the CX with a flat-four lump!

[slackerTHEpinstriper]

is that tony martin the guy that shot that bloke on his farm? ;D

we had two passes to get in but had a bit too much pop on saturday night,wish i had made the effort now!

If you get a spare few minutes, have a look at the build photos for this truck on their website www.conceptracing.co.uk . They specialise in ally, so it's was built to show of their talents - serious work gone on here!
