does this mean we get to wear subaru attire?

hopefully this will give us (The RB5 Owners club) enough time to get the total donations fund together and to present a final cheque to Cancer Research

I know some of the lads over on the RB5 club would like to arrive with their cars to show their respect.

I would love to attend but work commitments this time of year puts pay to that.

I will do my up most during my work hours to pay respect to a man that has been a true ambassador of the sport and showed many other sufferers and a like the strength to go on during his illness. God bless him.

I work next door to the MSA in Colnbrook and I could find out if they are doing there own service if you like for anyone who is unable to attend the London?

I can't make this either because of work, is their anyway of doing our own service and asking Richars's family along so the cheque could be presented to them.
Cheers

I am working too that day, but willing to book the day off.

I don't think Richards family would want to go to another service.
They have the 22nd open to all.

Is it possible to record the service? I've tried to get the day off but so close to Christmas it's impossible?

I was in the privileged position to be able to attend this morning. It was a fitting occasion, with St Luke's packed full, and with his original (restored) Peugeot 205 GTI and Subaru WRC cars parked outside.

There were readings from Jon Desborough, a close friend, his sister, Steve Ryder and Jeremy Clarkson.

Other recognisable attendees included Tiff Needell, Dave Richards and Max Mosley.

I shall treasure the order of service booklet forever.
