Its getting better year by year.
Shame about the drizzle.

Still not sure about those wheels (Ian).

The sport from Sheffield looks sweet now.

No more room for car seats Dan?.

Welding? You need to get out more and thing is 10 mins up the road.
No sign of the Cheshire parts man Warby?. winkeye

Car seats? :)

I knew I should have tempted the Warburton there with a bag of black cable ties :wink:

I was too late to hand in my shower and shine nomination, and I knew nothing of the raffle until they were drawing the tickets. Must have spent too much time on the swings and slides :roll:

One thing is for sure though, the food is 100 times better than the gruel that gaydom serves up :D

the henna red (orange) m3 was particularly stunning and the owner wasnt even worried about it getting wet whilst we chatted.

was hoping to get a few more snaps of the rest of the crowd but the weather turned so that was that.was a good day though and its a good venue even for those with family, lots for kids n the missus to do whilst you ogle cars

Quite a nice little show for very little money, though disappointingly few trade stands.

Was nice to meet up with a couple of zoners, DaveD and (sorry I didn't get your name) the guy with the lachs silver touring, and to see a few of the cars that I'd seen on the zone, my job usually prevents me from going to as many meets as I would like to.

Beardymats car was superb, really impressed with how well flatted the paint was, I've done one side of mine so I know that wasn't a 5 minute job, a real credit to him.

Also, a few stunning e28's aswell, like this Alpina:

and a few very tidy M3's:

Image

Having said that there weren't many trade stands, there was still the odd bargain to be had if you'd brought a bit of spare cash: winkeye

All in all a good day, well worth going though probably not enough to keep you occupied for a whole day unless you were with people you knew.

Looks like I have a date for next years Harewood (BMWCC North East Region Concours).. June 8th 2008.

If you lot let me know how many spaces you require I will fix you up with your own Zoners area where you can all be together.

.. and thanks for putting up a snap of my little old E28.. she was far too mucky to show, so I hid her at the back so no-one would notice!
