It was a good turn out, the biggest amout of supercars I've ever seen in one place, apart from Ferrari day!
Tony, your Lambo was gorgeous & I can't believe your litle one slept while you drove in, despite the sound of the engine!!
There were plenty of lovely ferrari's there too and TVR's?! - Well, more than enough! (naughty bit: As BrianDraught said to me, sprised an AA van hadn't parked with them too!:P)

All in all I had a good time! Would have liked to have spoken to a few more of you, still there's always next time!

I was! (Elderly GT4) Was yours the 355 parked opposite the rest of the Fezzas?

Mr Tony, sorry I couldn't stay longer. Beautiful machine you've got there

...and the first car I've seen where the engine bay is cleaner than the outside!!!

i arrived just as you were leaving I think (Red 355 8 CJA or similar?) not in my 355 as I did a trackday at Goodwood yesterday and the front pads were down to the metal

hope to meet you next time!

Yes, a good day... although some git has nicked the badge off the back of the car in the last 24 hours

As ever at these meets, never get around to chat to everyone.... especially if you're also having to look after a snotty nosed little kid who's constantly looking for the next shiny car to smother his greasy hands over.... at least at BT&P I can concentrate on the alcohol.

A nice little visit to Maranello's as well.... they'd left the F40 open, so it would have been rude not to get in and dream!!!

Well the Griff went home with the AA at least everyone had left before it went onto the truck.

Good job I had the Mini there as well.

Good to meet some new faces. Was good to chat to some 355 owners prior to taking the plunge. Cheers to Bernard for bestowing me with his 355 hints and tips. Cheers to Cal & Foxy for letting me have a poke around. (the car you pervs)

I turned up in the black Merc-uberbarge that was blocking the view of all the nice cars

Hi all,

Yes a good day - what a beautiful morning.

Good to see so many there although perhaps quite a lot less than February.
Sorry about your badge Tony - and for running off like that without you - in truth - Jamie and I knew we'd have trouble staying on your tail.. ;o)

Foxy, was that your 355 with the Challenge grille parked next to Kevins red 456? (which was spotless as usual) I was on the other side of him in the 360.

Look forward to the next get together.

Brian

Ouch!

My Chim limped home as well ...it was fine on the way up to VW. Probably sulking because of all the lovely competition parked up

Craig, I owe you a beer!

One Diablo badge ordered and to be delivered tomorrow

Their home page is now on my list of favourites as I'm sure it won't be the last time that something disappears, and it also had some interesting items in there as well.

David, sorry to miss you, just got delayed on the way unfortunately.

Danhay - good to say hi, love the 208, very nice and very very clean! (Put me to shame really!)

Frostie - good to put a face to a name, and the 550 is absolutley lip smackingly gorgous. I simply will have to own one someday

Kevin - 456 looks fab, especially in red.

I was there with the ahhhemmm Celica. The walk for coffee took most of the morning.

Great fun, and even bought a nice new hat from ted.

Also met some nice lady and talked about wardrobes....Strange day all round really.
