.....at the Ace Cafe Classic car meet  Never been before and wasn't disapointed, the variety of cars was amazing, shame everyone gets in so early and the place is empty by 9.30pm though  Was great to meet up with some fellow RRs as well ;D I managed about 120 pics, of those 120 about 30 are worth looking at, this DSLR malarky is gonna take some getting used to  Anyway onto the edited highlights... Very black Audi  Dinky Fiat, Kims favourite none yellow 1303 of the night  Kims favourite yellow 1303 of the night, so great infact she was asleep by the M40 and only woke up as we pulled into home!  ;D |

yes it is still running a rotary - belongs to Glen from Classic Cars. Was off the road for ages when he couldn't get it out of his garage cause the brake caliper was so stuck... goes nicely now, had a couple of lifts in it

"had a couple of lifts in it" - I mean I was a passenger in it, not that it had elevators fitted in a pimp my ride style

Twas a good night, it's such a blinkin' shame that whilst I live relatively close in terms of mileage (about 20) it's such a dog to get to! ;D     The Audi was an unexpected 'car of the night' for me! Great to see fellow RRers too. I only took about 10 photos in total, I just feel a bit of a twonk walking round with a tripod! ;D I should really make more of an effort. |

Going to have to make the trek down to The Ace at least once this year.
In truth, it only takes about 90-100mins from here, which is probably less time than it takes to get to it from some parts of Sarf London- but with the weekday meets seemingly starting quite early it would mean taking half a day off work- so I guess we'll be coming down for an OSF meet on a saturday.

It gets used for cross European rallies and was prisitne. Except for a dented rear wheelarch, inflicted by a Transit in a car park earlier in the day  (Speedman photo ;D) |

So it was real then? That's a seriously big money car! Imagine the Transit drivers insurance companies face when that old car he knocked in the car park gets a £30,000 quote at Rod Jolley's! ;D

I should have given the owner Lance McCormacks number! I had a chat with Glen from Classic Cars who told me the story.... |

Was a really good night once again, loads of cool stuff on display. This though was my favourite, stunning I thought and the first one I have ever seen. Who knows what it is, my first guess was totally wrong??  |
