I know its early, I was just wondering who all may be planning to go?

Im going to try really hard to get the Mk3 ready in time. Its close!

Waiting for the weather to improve so I can get back on it.

Cheers!

Would love to attend but will be in Ireland this year, maybe I will see a few Enfos there?

Hopefully my Anglia is ready for the show. When's the registration deadline?

Are there restrictions on entries?

I think you have at least. until lthe end of April.

No restrictions that I can see....just has to be British.

I don't think there are any restrictions, other than it has to be parked on the grounds with the parking brake on untill at least 4:30 pm

So I guess your parking brake has to at least look like it works.

The Mk3 needs both windscreen seals and all 4 door seals before it leaves the covered area it's in. And an exhaust donut....

Sad to say I won't be there, my car isn't ready and I have some more pressing matters to attend to.

However, my dad is entering my old Jaguar into the show. I feel it should stand out, dark blue 1989 XJ6 on 17 inch chrome XK8 wheels and a very slight lower. My boss gave me the car for free with a dead piston, and I swapped a later model 4.0l AJ6 into it.

Just in case someone goes looking for it...

Awesome mini.

I'm not gonna make it this year... car still has to pass VI, got a list of little things that need to be done.

Gearbox didn't want to give me second gear anymore so I had to replace it.

Yes, B18C - haven't been able to drive it properly yet.

I'll probably find out how it goes at the track and probably stuff it into the wall while doing so!

Plan was to strip the interior, cage it etc but it is a bit too nice for that so, I may just sell it!
