Great day and pictures from Dave and David who is now almost in somewhere sunny.
But it will be sunny at Broadlands, Romsey around 10 so those thinking about going, do go.

Thanks again Gordon, lovely day.

Thanks Gordon, It was the excitement of seeing all those lovely E30s, or most probably the very late night I had the night before

Great pictures, Gordon. The Show looks quite different in sunshine....and all the cars are shiney and gleaming too - especially the Rover P6. Terry has one rusting in a garage, so if you know anyone who is desperate to own one of these cars, please let us know!

Pleased my forecasting was accurate. I hope there were more visitors than Sunday.

Don't tempt me Jackie! Having grown up in the 70s, being the son of a Police Officer, I used to get rides in Rover P6s, Triumph 2500 & Granadas, he owned 2 Rover 2200s. Classic motors. Contact the Owners club, it needs to be saved!!

Lovely car, the P6. Nice to work on too, everything unbolts, even the rear wings...

Wish I had the money time and space, I'd probably have it myself. My dad had one from new, a 3500 S with auto box and full length webasto roof. Beautiful car, I loved it, despite only being about 4 or 5.

Wasn't the 3500S the manual version, not the auto.? I'm sure they had to develop a beefed up manual box to handle the power of the buick V8?
