It was alright like.The show really got going when the tractors did their lap of honour. :lol:

Pity you had to go but you did leave in a blast of glory. (sounded good)

edit--- sorry gray missed the last bit.
I'd go next year just because its not that far and if it had twice as many cars this year there might be twice as many again next year.

Somewhat ironic that the banner says largest e30 community and only 3 zoners show up!

Only joking folks, looks a good un. I was expecting some rally'esk photos though.

Well done Jake - your cabby looks even better when seen for real!
I was kicking myself when I got there and wished I'd got mine MOTd for this - oh well I've just SORNed it as well now, so won't be on the road till next spring.

Looks like it's "flower-power" til then, lol!

Post Tue Sep 09, 2008 7:42 am

Cheers Grant.
It wont be long until the cabs on the road again and it will be better for it with fresh mot and knowing you a service.
Mines is off the road soon to
