Hey Northo, what time would the cars be outside the hotel? I would love to go along just for a 10 minute look if I could.

This is nothing to do with us, so I will just be popping along to be nosey ! Our cars will be at MPH.

The funny thing is, on the flyer, they have a picture of a Zonda F instead of a Zonda C12s and they have a picture of a CCX or CCR instead of a CC8s. Rookie mistakes!smile

Northo - who owns the cars that will be there?

I have absolutely no idea. It's a mystery, which is why I am going to go and have a sneaky peek.

Can't be many people with those cars sitting around! If I've got it right only 8 CC8S's were made...?

Well I am at the Dakota this morning and there is nothing here.

The people at Dakota say that there has never been a booking for a car group this weekend - how very strange!!

Was down there as well and nothing turned up after you were there. Saw a bentley outside and PHer turned up in a beautiful blue Mas spyder. Not sure what was happening.

Was a silver Rolls Royce drophead coupe and AM Vantage roadster on George just after though as a "consolation".

Yeah, would be great to see the car and yourself again, smile

Wonder if it was just some prank, seems too similar to Rio's one to be a coincidence, same cars, meeting place etc. Rio has one planned soon to announce their Maclaren Merc. Edward, are you able to say when it is since it was announced at RPM anyway?

Our next one will be beginning of May 09. November is no time to be planning a highland hoon in those types of car. All a bit of a mystery.

Thanks very much. Also seems strange where they would have got the cars from to be able to rent them out in the first place if it was real.
