So Bristol now has:

Classic & car show at Shepton Mallett around March time

Classic fun day car show on the Downs in June.

& now the cribbs causeway car show? Not complaining at all, I thinks its great, never heard about this one though, must be worth popping along. Even if the Scamera partnership is there... know your enemy they told us in the mob... oh & stay alert, stay alive.

It was a slightly rhetorical question I'm afraid They used to exhibit regularly at the Motor Shows in the old days, but probably not since the early eighties would be my guess.

Here's a 411 on a show stand, probably 1969 or 1970:


I've been in a Fighter and the build quality was not the best, but it was still a wonderful car.
