I'd like to see one chopped with a grille full of over-riders, with a full-on Candy Red over Gold paint, and some ghost flames. A sort of Mini-Mercury. I'm fairly sure that proportionally, a Figaro wouldn't be far out.  |

The blue one was spot on including matching blue piping on the leather seats. Another J oddity spotted on the way.  I also managed to win myself a subcription to Total Nissan Magazine by beating 210 Figaro owners on a quiz about their own car. ;D |

Nearly bought a Pao last week, the ivory one on eBay hat needed a headlight, grille and indicator. The engine was knackered though, and the windscreen cracked, I couldn't be bothered with the hassle. Only sold for a grand though, and it was a manual.
There's a terracotta Pao on the 'Bay at the moment, for 4 grand!!!!

Cool show,.. how was Gaydon as a venue?? Really good, as its hard standing. They let you use the rear entrance to use the facilities as I was worried you would have to pay to enter the museum if you needed to make your daily constitutional. Only problem we had was the cafe was the only place supplying food and drink and was very expensive.........and no ice cream  So take your own food and drink, unless they are letting you set up a couple of burger stands and an ice cream van. |

I'll check that out, it was something I was hoping to have there, will have to check its all good.. Were you seperated into club areas or just a big free for all? (we were thinking of numbering the parking spaces for clubs ).. |

It was basically park in the order you arrived apart from the Pao's and Rasheen which were all parked together as we were special. I guess if you have your own parking marshalls you could get cars grouped together. Gaydon wouldn't let me set up my kite cam to get some aerial shots so they might be a bit miffed if you mark there car park with numbers
If you are planning on having some entertainment the trailer with the PA system works well.

Ah yes, food is a good call! Restaurant is not the best and more options are definitely needed.

Not really related to Gaydon but one of the best bits on the part of the organisors is housing of everyones photo's in the same place. A FIG08 group was set up on Flickr and people were asked to upload their photo's there. Over 500 photo's all in the same spot so if you missed something your bound to find it in there. If people have done this before sorry, but I thought it was a great idea. |
