Renaults were quite scarce at the show but we did find this

and this

there was also a couple of clio 16v doing runs down the strip and a willams two lurking about

 

[Wicked Neo]

But even though Renaults were few in number, old skool Fords were in abundunce!

How damn nice is this Cortina!!

This pair of superb Mk1 Escort Mexico's were mouth wateringly gorgous

I am seriously tempted to get a Mk1 Scort myself!!

But i did leave two spaces for this little beauty, this Astra was flawless, a really lovely car

I love old cars, takes you back to your childhood when they were all runnin about.

Modern cars, though nice and comfy and all the toys, seem to have no soul.

Sorry if this thread is getting a bit large!

​

UCC on the way in at 7.30am. We were amongst the first dozen vehicles to turn up, THAT's how keen we are!



Pre-show checks!



Still a bit quiet...



What a find! Hidden behind the drag strip start, not even part of the show.
Renault Fuego, automatic and not a turbo.



View from the 'other side'



Lifted up my top to expose my manly power



Starting to get busy



Check the RR sign!



Shows the kind of mix of cars that were going down the strip - a metro, maestro, ford galaxy people carrier, 2 clios, nitrous bikes, anglias, scooters even!
