So sorry guys - I cannot be certain of attending with the 6C as daughter is due to give birth about now so "Family duties" rule.

nice pix JB.
the fiat 500's are cute aren't they
mitcar usually pick good venues that offer something to allow the family to attend, a stately home or castle so the non car nuts also have something to do
they are one of my fav meets to attend, maybe next year we can get a few more cars together from the boxer boys

Cheers Kev
Agree great venue. Fingers crossed for next year
Yes we need more boxers there for sure!
So we've got 12 months to sort the cars out

Just one 33, thats it, shame that, poor effort from us guys i feel!

lol!
Never met the guy before, and i think its his first 33 by the sounds of it, and a reasonable one at that too thankfully, but, looking around the filler cap and a few other area's, i think he's about to be very accustomed to one of the many joys of 33 ownership!
He was promoting Sportsalfa forum which is a bit of a shame, as i don't think he'll find the same level of assistance and enthusiasm for restroing his 33 as he would have here, but you can't win them all eh?
This beauty was the car that got my vote for car of the meeting,
I loved the attention he'd paid it, the quality of his finish, and the fitment of the lesser used Revolution wheels design
and then there was this, which probably should have been in for at least the rarest car award and trophy surely?
a genuine Autodelta 3.0 GTV, originally built for the South African market, and covered just 57k from new.
purchased and imported by the current owner, the only deviation from original was a mph clock, and his Compomotive wheels would have started life with black centres.
absolutely stunning, and i was very surprised this did not drive away with some silverware?
