Here's the measly few pics I got on my phone, the camera reported a full battery last night, when I went to take pics today, it reported the battery was too low for pics... so...

Image
Image
My turd. The dirtiest car of the day
Image
Rob's motor... The Womble-mobile
Image
Chris the painter's car. Almost ready for the respray
Image
ivqii's Baur. Still missing its valence, but nice none-the-less
Image
Gaszman's Touring. Don't mention the kids...
Image
Jon_bmw's latest car, 318iS
Image
oilycol's 4-door. The man with an engine shinier than Dave T's...
Image
Suchy's Sport, This man makes me look sane...
Image
PaulSport's Sport. Shinier than it looks in this pic.
Image
DelphinCabby's first Southern meet. Welcome mate.
Image
Ziggy's cab with a newly installed M30, and detachable valence
Image
Davidt's Sport, as immaculate as ever - now with "Summer wheels"
Image
Aretha's lovely Baur, a very rare iS model
Image
Spook's Touring, the Hartge needs a new sump. Is the jack OK mate?
Image

Nice pics guys, you can tell who the expert photographer is though. Suchy, your pics have a totally different texture to the rest, do you 'make' them look that way, or is it just the kit you use?

That's the best Nokia could do mate, my camera decided to have a flat battery moment, despite reporting a full battery on Saturday eve...

Super pics guys, well done all. Glad everyone enjoyed the meet.
Cheers

Nah it's a combination of equipment and actually knowing what I'm doing (with a bit of post-production tweaking!) :D

Hardly!! I know he desperately needs a re-map, but he's not that slow!!!! :mad: winkeye

No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't keep up with the combined might of the m40 slipstreaming the $hitroen...

...& even the mobile roadblock couldn't stop them.

:D Jeez, and I wanted to push the $hitroen cos I wanted to go quicker. I knew Suchy and HKF would be unhappy going that slow...

What's with the bumper? Is there an intercooler comming there?

And what is in front of this one his headlights? Some protection?

Seemed like a nice meeting!

:lol: Nah Rob (HKF) was bored with the look of his car, so he hacksawed a section out!! He's planning to mount some huge Cibbies or KC Daylighter or something in there!! :D
And what is in front of this one his headlights? Some protection?
And that would be our council representative DaveT's light protection units!! He also has anti-stone grills on his fogs!! Not that he drives fast enough to get any stonechips- that's why his car is soooo bloody immaculate (except for his engine bay- his water pipes are awful) :D

Hmmm, I think I liked the idea of an intercooler better :P Still, 4 of those KC Daylighters would be nice.
