i could niot find pont caffino on the map Hubert. could you show it? my father lives nearby at saint paul mont penit, and i would certainly like to call in when i visit him next year.

Hi Christophe, was great to meet you, and glad you have joined our forum. welcome.

21" wide....

Steve, that is awesome, and should have pride of place somewhere.... we have discussed some different ideas and plans for next year, but ultimately, it depends on a) how large a stand we get allocated after applying b) how many owners can commit 100% to the show but that car could take up a stand all on its own!

once the stand is setup on Thursday, you are not allowed to move the vehicles around on the other days, so it was not possible to do once the news was known

nice one Lee, great to hear from you buddy.

yeah, tis a shame on the sequence of events. sods law. how about being the first car on the list for the 2016 show instead? (well, first after whatever Lee has managed to sort out in that time) gives you time to fix the minor little niggles you were worried about ;-)

that being the lorry wheel... ;-)

its a shame, but worth a try. many thanks. last year, there was no way we could have got onto the stand late. this year, we are right next to a main access way. no way of knowing at the time. anyone immediately local might still be able to make it on, if they want to try?

looks like Mondo has stepped up to the plate. top man

stuck in accident traffic on m6, probably with a few other show goers, so might be lucky and still get access for a bit longer?

unfortunately one of our planned show cars cannot make the classic car show. details of why will be posted later today i am sure. is there anyone with a show ready car able to give up their car for the weekend, at very short notice? we have 3 cars already but had planned and have space for 4 if you are also able to stay with it, then a hotel room is already booked. our stand entry time is 10am, but can probably still get access for an hour or so after, depends how many other stands arrive early. call me on 07885 852047 if you can help.

just got off hone from Lee he broke down on way to NEC, pulled onto hard shoulder or side of road. went looking on foot for road or place name to give RAC while gone, car was hit by a lorry, and is a write off, but he hasnt seen it yet luckily had a witness as lorry drove off, witness found Lee down the road and they chased down the lorry and stopped him then called police police dealing with him now and hopefully they will take him back to car 2 miles back up the road so he can see it very lucky that he was not in the car and that he is alright. he will post when he gets a chance to

got an immobiliser? do i need to bring mine as backup ;-) be the bad egg in the box lol

Exactly what I was thinking

scary stuff, glad you are on the mend!

not trying to milk the provenance at all are they.... at most, half of the asking price, imo, and thats generous.

elements of lots of nice cars in there, but still distinct enough, very good.

i think this might be the standard uk yellow, there were only a couple around that i remember, a member called jez from high wycombe had one. although i did think it was slightly darker but that might be 15 year old memory at fault? none of the pearl effect ones were uk colours, iirc? found this on ebay, but it has the blue missing for uk spec, and shows the yellow a bit darker http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-300ZX-rare-UK-market-Colour-Guide-card-leaflet-brochure-c1986-/230745318582

i think the combination of raised spoiler and boot lid spoiler, along with the lower diffuser/spoiler makes it look very busy, and very old school. removing one or the other boot spoilers would de-clutter the look quite a bit.

the pink ones an opel rekord olympia or p1, inspired by the bel air. havent seen one of them for ages, had a few opels in my early years.
