[CedGTV]

It that time of the year again.

Harpenden Common, a lot of exotica, hopefully a nice barmy afternoon-evening.

A Nice combination.

Not taking my car this year but I'll be mooching around.

[spikeyhead]

I'm still in the Netherlands, so second year in a row that I'll miss it.

Look forwards to seeing the pics

[Legend83]

Bummer - in France this year.

Gutted I will miss it!

[Cool Mart]

I'll be there in the Mantaray ... just need to find time to clean it after 100 miles of dead flies last weekend !

Lots of cars there 'til it starts to get dark, so about 9ish?

I'll be there having a stroll around (and a pint or 2!)

[Chris71]

Weather permitting I'll bring my (somewhat tatty blue) Caterham along.

Hang on... just seen the web link. You have to pay to bring your car along? Are there any perks or is it just like a giant pay and display?

[theturbs]

I'll be there. Very much looking forward to it.

[pete cobra]

looking forward to this one my third year now blue cobra replica say hi if im with the car

[cottonfoo]

I'll be there, heading over for when it starts but not showing the 911 unfortunately. I'll be on the lookout for PH identification for those that are

[jammiedodger26]

I'll be having a mooch around...will be in my MX5 (will not stand out at all!!)

[theturbs]

Anyone in/around Harpenden at the moment who can provide an accurate weather report?

[BazT]

It rained.

It was just a brief shower though, and all in all a pleasant evening!

[cottonfoo]

Yep only rained at about 7.30pm or so, but we'd been there since 3.45pm and were on our way back to the car by that point

Some very nice cars there, a good turnout.

[Cool Mart]

Good turn out and some interesting motors again this year.

I thought I'd get away without polishing the car again before Croxley green next week, but there was just enough rain to turn the dust covering my car into little mud splats ....

Anyone know anything about the classic Mini with the full CF interior, roof, wheelarch extensions and Vauxhall (I think) engine visible through the bonnet?

ETA, found it, nice work,

Thank You

I really like what you did with the interior, and the fit of the bonnet is perfect

Bit late posting up, but good evening and good turnout. Think it's my 7th (maybe 8th) time attending the COTC.

There's a write up on the BBC website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/threecounties/hi/peopl...

And some of my pics from the evening:

There were simply too many lovely motors to take a pic of all of them (all though I did try my best ). So loads of pics here for those interested: http://s132.photobucket.com/albums/q11/300bhpton/C...

And some highlights:
