Maybe June & August? Not a true reflection but a nice evening out. They 'aint gonna turn you away are they?

Alas, mine probably won't be ready for this summer frown Would a Merc SL320 fall under the open top sports car theme? A bit soft & portly perhaps? May still go along anyhow.

yep, they will...few of the event crew know their cars... tried to barge into the yank night last year with the ford v8 powered Tiger...just as i got to park it up, i was ousted! car parking nearby can be limited too... could've tried the american re-import-converted from LHD back to RHD argument but we were being rushed along...
