Got these developed last night.

Apologies for the quality, it was getting dark and I'm not the photographer in the house.

Apologies also to Miles & Shaun, only seemed to get your cars in the backgrounds, despite being either side on mine.

Mike.

John, rescue the credit card in time? Showed the photos to guys at work, one of them thinks his mate was the previous owner of your car. How long have you had it?

Cold it was - I thought it best not to include the picture of the penguins on the ice going into the harbour. Doesn't give a very good image of the granite city.

Miles - your car was spotless, don't know what you mean???

Mike.

Mike,

I've had the car from new, and I'm the first registered owner. There were quite a few Terzo's in Aberdeen at one point though a few years ago, but only about 4 that I see regularly these days.

John,

so you've had it from new, that explains why it's in such good nick.

Just as well I was sitting down when I read your reply, cause big G's never wrong - it's a Terzo so it must be his mates. I reckon there's some wind-up mileage in there..... splendid.

Mike.

10 out of 10 for managing to make my one look clean

Even though it was officially the foolest one of the day, closely followed my miles's one

Cool

as the scooby newbie i think your photo's are no bad. there was considerably more cars there than when i arrived as i was to a bit late (daughter took ages to get ready ) but i can safley say mine was the dirtiest there ( if only the wife was that dirty :] ). who owns the 1 that has all the writing on it? as a guy at work mentioned this car a while ago think he might know him

cheers kev

Question

Nice Pictures

Quick question though, was it compulsory to have gold wheels at this get together?

The "Falkland" car is owned by the guy Bob. He's modified his car for hill climbing and has done an impressive amount of modifications to it. I can vouch that it's very quick and surefooted from a particularly rainy day up at Alford

Can I propose to the Scottish branch of the SIDC that they hire Mike as the official photographer as his photographs make our cars all shiny, whereas in real life they are a wee bit grumby

They weren't compulsory but anyone without them were banished to stand in the middle of the carpark to freeze their danglies off

Oh wait a minute that's wrong, we all did that !!

If you mean the blue one in the 9th picture down, next to the red WRX, then they are Raceline RL7 17inch wheels, owner is Keithp
