Ozz and Rich (rsedwards). Drop me a PM to confirm your coming or give me a text.

If anyone else still wants to come then feel free to do so. Timings have not changed. I don't want to let them down by not turning up at all.

Cheers

Ian, I am going to try and see if I can re-arrange my work tomorrow to allow me to come on Saturday. I can't confirm until tomorrow afternoon but I will try my very best.

It'll probably mean a very late finish tomorrow and a very early start on Saturday but I'll do everything in my power to be there.

Plus if I can make it I'll be bringing Simon (RF555) with me as well.

Ladies and gentlemen. many thanks to all of you that attended

Good day, good laugh, definetly different, but good company and I would do it again. I spoke to Jayne and she really appreciated us turning up.

Many thanks to Ian for organising this , I enjoyed myself and had quite a bit of interest in the car due to the spec sheets, perhaps I should have put a for sale sign in the windscreen after all.

I hope our contributions go a little way to helping out those in need.

My post from earlier seems to have disappeared

It was nice to catch up with people today. Had a good time, thanks for organising this Ian and I hope your car is ok. Sorry I wasn't around when people left, I was supporting my girlfriends cousins band.

I have just found out that the camera was on a wrong settings so all my pics are grainy Also the first couple of pics of the full line up have been corrupted I will post what I have up after I have removed the number plates.

Rich.

It's Italian and built by Iveco, looks like a good piece of kit, plus that machine gun on the roof must be useful when you get stuck in traffic
