I enjoyed the show today.

Saw Dave M working hard on the TVR stand. It looked excellent (the stand, not Dave wink ). Also bumped into Wiz wavey

There was a Lambo "something" Orange S on the display. I must say that I don't usually like S's when they have larger modern wheels on, but this colour with the 17inch black multispokes looked absolutely fantastic! Like an idiot I forgot to take a pic of it banghead

Did anyone get a pic or is the owner on here...?

I also saw it yesterday, like others I wouldn't normally go for that sort of colour or the big wheels but it was nevertheless very striking. Both I, and my Porsche owning friend who was with me, thought it looked strikingly modern and could be sold today. One or two details were nice, although I agree the mirrors looked wrong. I did note (with some satisfaction!)that the lightly smoked BMW front indicators looked the part.
Did you see the CWR Titan display (no actual car) on David Gerrald's stand? Interesting discussion, apparently they are on to the second run of cars. Hope it makes it to series production (although personally, and my views were noted at the stand, the front end is too 'messy'and angular and spoils the beautiful simple curves of the rest of t 'TVR' shape.)

Great to see you Ian, Norman, David and all. Yesterday was very busy. Good positioning next to the Macallan stand, and great of them to bring over some refreshmentssmile

I hope everyone had a good time.

Over the two days I was there we had a huge amount of interest, current and previous owners and many just curious.

Great to see Arnie, Klaus and their friends from Sweden (sorry for forcing you to drink Arniehehe)

A special thanks to my hosts (Steve, Ginny and George) for putting me up, erm putting up with me and feeding me etcsmile.

And to Andy Martin for teaching me about curries!
