Was really cool, I couldn't resist going in the end, rain or no rain.
Robs KP is insperational and easily one of the most fun looking cars I've seen in a while. My GF kept going on and on about Nicks Poopra which pulled no punches about what it was for.
Tha Allaggros Vanden Plas rear serving tables are still one of the most amazing things I have ever seen.
Great to see a Mk1 Escort showing you don't need to me a millionaire concours bufty to own one. Even attracted a guy to come over from the other end of the car park.
Phils late appearance in his Scirocco was a nice suprise and I'm glad he didn't miss some of the nights entertainment with the easily entertained Corsa girls.
Great variety of cars but some pretty universal opinions which I think this forum is all about. Was great to meet everyone, lets hope we can make it bigger and bigger.
Cheers Chris

There were a few comedy moments: pigeons, chav ladies and one badass BMW!!

Yes, was most enjoyable - sorry I didn't spend 5 hours standing in a car park instead of just the 2 There was even a lady in attendance! At a car meet! Not one car attended that I wouldn't welcome into my fleet. Well maybe one ;D But then the wife would want it as she has some pretty perverse auto-taste (and it turns out she had one as her first car) Oh and BTW, when I said I was nipping off into those bushes to 'splash me boots' and should I watch out for errant doggers, you could have warned me how close the lake was to the edge of the car park! Boots nearly ended up more than splashed! Certainly plan on attending the next one. Cheers, Phil

So can we have a roll call for the next meet on the 26th any location suggestions, or shall we try and build up a following at the Snow Dome? Rock on

Assuming everyone else is still up for this I will be there too, a bit strange that out of the whole midlands there are only four people willing to stand in a car park for a few hours Still as they said in Waynes World 2 or that Field of Dreams thing, "If you build it they will come" No doubt badly paraphrased

Hiya hairnet, I got there for 6:30 didn't see anyone, I stayed for about 20 mins and then left.
I think possibly the weather put people of, it was chucking it down when I arrived.
