New year's day once again gave the opportunity to take the cars for their first outing.
We joined a local meeting at The Phoenix at Hartley Wintney Hants with many
interesting cars This year the R16s were represented by Paul, Gary and
Jacqueline. John and Lorraine displayed Their recently acquired R8S while
Roland and Gill brought their 4CV.
Alexandria Palace 2007
On his first outing as Events coordinator Jeff Sassin constructed an
excellent club stand .We were limited to two vehicles so Jeff chose the 4CV of
Roland Poole and his own Alpine 110 representing two quite different
aspects of our club.
Reims Salon 2007
Bedford Classic Car Show
La vie en Bleu 2007 see competition section
Castle Combe Classic Car Action day
At Last the sun was shining and we had an
excellent turn out for this popular event. Dave Wheeler took the opportunity to
test his new engine on the Track while pat's gord failed the noise test and he
had to stand down. 10cars did manage to take part in the parade laps at lunch
time.
Ardingly Vintage vehicle Show
The previous weeks poor weather resulted in
the show organizers deciding to put the car clubs inside this year.
Once again Stewart and Michelle had planed
the weekend well and we enjoyed an excellent barbecue on Saturday evening.
Classics at the Castle Sherborne
This was our first visit to this event at
Sherborne Castle. Although a smaller event than some we attend the venue was
delightful with rolling hills in the background and the castle and the grounds
to explore. There was and auto jumble and a good craft fair for those less
interested in the cars.
Members had a discount entry price to the
castle of £2 and for those of you did not attend this year it is well worth the
visit next time.
Wroughton 2007
This event continues to improve and for the
first time was a full weekend event a number of our members camped from Friday
to Sunday evening and also visited the local pub and fish and chip shop.
The auto jumble was improved from last year
and of course the science museum on site proved very popular with is motoring
and aviation history.
Renault World Series Donington Park 2007
This year was perhaps the best of the
series so far with the weather being kind a good position to watch the racing
and an excellent gala dinner on the Saturday evening. The club again performed
well having 10 wins in the concourse competition.
