Great weekend thanks for posting the pics Rob and also to Sam for hoarding the cats 
. Already pre booked some accommodation for next year which already seems to be in short supply.

I missed the auction, definitely one on my list for next yearGreat pictures there Rob, you got even further out looking around than I did. I probably spent too much time talking with people wanting to talk about the Black M Coupe of mine as they came down the pedestrian access bridge and it was the first car they spotted. Must have explained about how to do sill/wing removal and inner sill refurb (had photos to illustrate) at least 5 times over the weekend.
Some great cars you took pictures of there.
Talking of cars you wish you still had, mine are a 1966 Black MGB GT with chrome wires (reg KTG 171 D, I look for it every show I go to) and a 1983 Diamond Black BMW M635, last seen for sale in Straight Six magazine (BMWCC) a few years ago going for a lot more money than I sold it for.
I guess you see my favour colour scheme.
Highlights of the weekend for me were:-
1) Being in the auction room to see the 1 of 17 Project ZP ex Tommy Sopwith Equipe Endeavour Jaguar E Type go from starting price of £670,000 to selling price of £925,000.
2) Seeing/hearing the BRM V16 GP car blasting round the circuit, fantastic.
Look forward to next year.
Hi Mike, good to see you and Claire too, yes there is so much to see there it is non stop. Love the event though. See you at the next meet I am sure
