A massive thankyou to everyone who came. I for one really enjoyed it and it was a real pleasure to put faces to names. There is talk of doing it all again next year, which I'd certainly like to do. In the end the weather held off to make it a very enjoyable day! Here are some of the pictures from my camera.

Comedy picture of the day? The co pilot took this one as we flew past a slow moving obstacle over the moors. :snigger:

:( Can't see these in work!

Was a great day though guys - and my cooling system held out quite well :D Admittedly there was less water in it by the end of the day but hey!

Just a shame that the Sunday drivers were out in force clogging up the roads :x ! I think a few of us managed to scare some of them though winkeye

Had a great time, cant wait for the next one, thanks to Rob for organising :thumb:

Sunday drivers were the only downside of the day, Dafs mate in the orange MG was not impressed by the E30 hooligans :)

Only pic I got was of the anti-vegetarian type winkeye

That vauxhall got a damn good lot of unleaded fumes on the next corner when Daf and I gave the old right foot some use!

Pics look great folks-no doubt claire will have a few for me to put up later

great variety of e30's and lots of crazy but nice owners-cant ask for more than that :D

As said already, a great meet, and a chance to meet a few other Zoners. 650 odd miles and worked it out as 34.5 miles per gallon. Well worth the trip down!

Here's a few of mine, click for bigger pics :

Appart from the fact that you can pick an m50 up for £50 and an S50 conversion costs 6k I would have one! 8O

Im getting closer to S50 power, and it cost me a lot less :D
