This is usually a good day out – one of the first big car events of the season, so it tends to be quite a busy one.

Anyone planning to head along? I know the Porsche guys have spaces booked.

I'll be there; this will be the 3rd year for me, and it seems to be growing each year. ( no jokes please!)

Been to the last few, trying to get the Anthill Mob interested in old cars is a bloody nightmare though!

Certainly worth the afternoon out though (Hopefully the parking is a wee bit better, was a tad chaotic last year)

I'll pop up as well.

Last time I was there I saw the cleanest Mk2 Escort RS2000 ever.

Pretty good turnout and the rain mostly stayed away. Saw a particularly nice Isuzu Piazza, didn't even know they existed! Would have been a bit of a weapon in its day, owner was sound too.

Just got back from EK. Was a great day, loads of great cars and good people.

Even the weather stayed decent other than the drizzle for half an hour in the morning. Main thing is I got the car home dry for a change

I had the Cobra replica there, it was down in the field opposite the visitor centre. There were a few others scattered around too

Ahh gutted I missed it! We seen it on the way in and both said we need to have a right good look at it but by the time we got down to where you where it was gone. Was hoping we'd get to hear it!

I went along for a nosey - some nice cars there but for me day was spoiled by the poor car park access, manned by incompetents and the parking area turned into a muddy bog in places - saw several cars towed out by tractor....nonovery poor
