Well it was a very early start today got down there for 8am. Its a yearly event and always pulls good crowds, especially at only £5 a car meaning me and the old man had a day out for £2.50 each.
Well first of all ill start with a few nice spectators vauxhalls/opels, one lovely corsa c from off here and a nice corsa c off the corsa c site although i wasnt a fan of the rear lights. oh and stu off here (adam d's mate)










The rest of the spectators cars i took a snap happy liking too.






Now to the action





























































































hope youv enjoyed!

Rick Draper bought it and XEd it, did the irmy lip and the speedlines, put an interior and dash back in it and did some other bits, then Stu bought it, so really, it's not actualy the car I had at all, other than the shell and the plate 
First time I've seen a pic on the forum since Stu's had it though

is very nice fron the front, once he gets back arches and top of bumper sprayed same as front it will be complete, irmy lip look lovely, wish i had done that to mine now. Always nice to see your old cars in the same state or better then when u let them go as tbf, your shel was detine for the scrap yard after it was strip to pieces

I love the picture of the white MK II copping the sideways stance near the ''no golf'' sign
Yes, it most certainly is ''no golf'' indeed.
