Oh, McDonalds is a piece of p1ss to get to. Off the A1 if you are coming from T'North*, off at the Worksop turning and take the A614 for a few miles of straight road. You'll go past Thoresby on the right, over a poxy roundabout and another 2-3 miles until you come to a big roundabout. Second exit, A614 again - you'll see the Golden Arches right on the roundabout. Meeting time is 8am to 8.30 am.
I will bring the tickets with me and exchange them for crisp £5 notes.

*A616 from Nottingham, A616 from Sheffield.

Are you Sheffield lot meeting, prior to the journey south.
I will come over the said top again.

You can cough up a fiver at Maccys. Don't worry, I know who's paid up and who hasn't.....

Just six days left Boys. Looks like we will have a full house - going for the 'Best Club Stand' award as well. Virtually all cars will be 1980's with possibly just one very early (J plate) E36 Coupe.

If the weather holds out it should be a good one. Might even be a pre facelift (69/70) 1500 Maxi there as well.....

Early moring weather report, i'am about 8miles away and its abit over cast with the sun starting to break through in places but no rain!!

Hope the weather forcast is wrong

Mon Aug 31, 2009 7:46 pm

Well today was very good, mostly excellent weather. Almost everyone showed up with only one no-show.

We didn't win "club stand of the day' award. That was the TVR Club (mostly late nineties stuff, nothing pre 1994) and the Ford RS Club who had some nice cars abd some real rubbish - and an E36 Touring...

....work that one out.
Thanks again to everyone that came along - we're going for 35 cars next year!

Mon Aug 31, 2009 7:52 pm

Was a great day, well done once again Andy and team.
A great selection of cars. Any photos

Mon Aug 31, 2009 9:09 pm

I took some pics, will upload once i sorted through. Being a numpty i had my new camera setup wrong so they are a little over-exposed but not three bad...

Mon Aug 31, 2009 9:09 pm

Yes great day had and some very nice cars . Hopefully more next year

Mon Aug 31, 2009 9:18 pm

Ya had a good day shame i had to go early, missus had organised a BBQ but still had a good day

Mon Aug 31, 2009 9:34 pm

Mon Aug 31, 2009 9:37 pm

Thanks for organising today Andy, didn't really get much chance to look round the E30s as i'd been well and truely infected with Ford blood today.

Had the pleasant surpirse of seeing a mates old Fiesta RS Turbo there as well

Mon Aug 31, 2009 11:35 pm

Oh fook, knew i'd forgotten to do something, ended up going on hols last minute to Cornwall to see the womans relatives, meant to post up and let you know.........................

Just got back and to be honest i lost the will to live after about 5 minutes of getting out the car, weather was sh*te as well.

Wish i was at the show instead, better people and much better conversation.

Andy £5 in the post as you paid for the tickets
