Heya everyone
To all who attended, i would like to say thank you, was a great day, mostly hot and sunny. Great to finally put some more names to faces and to finally meet Stuart, only took 5 years of scorpio ownership and meets and i can safely say Shaun isnt the only one who got burnt!!
thanks guys, hope to see you all again next year

Dont know about you guys, but i had a great time  Really good to finally put some faces to names & have to say the standard of the cars was superb. Strangely enough the weather was quite sunny, so im sure most of us went home with sunburn ( i know i did ). All told a cracking day with a great crowd ......Roll on Harewood

I put mine to the back because of the glare coming off the highly polished paintwork...

LOL. It was so highly polished that when you pulled away the roof rails were missing.
Did they slide off due to the high quality of the polish that was used ?

Thanks Matt
We had a very good day, if a bit on the long side due to distance, 520 miles and average of 24mpg and average speed of 71mph. Head burnt due to sun, as some others were. Will look at pictures in camera and if any good, dont hold your breath on that, will post on here. Did anyone get a plaque in the end . If I had waited I would have been later home than the 20.45 I got home.

I didnt get one,
I took off in pursuit of a Ford Falcon and Lamborghini Countach through the middle of West Brom, with a boot load of engines and gearboxes!
Nice to meet you Gerald and the others who were there that I known for years just by their usernames! 
And thanks to Paul for picking up and keeping my load protector for what seems like years!!
That Falcon of yours appears to have rear wheel steer on the roundabouts
p.s. I got home at midnight!

I think the polishing must have worn away the mounts

Enjoyed the day out. Rear steering in the falcon....it's the only way!!
I'm just surprised that the boot liner lasted in our depot for so long.
A few pictures of the rest of the show:
See you all at the next meet.
