No idea I'm afraid, I just thought it was beaulieu it's self doing it

@Aff68 @AndrewG @ianl @Raja93 @arthur Can any of you guys make it?

Early October sounds good to me. The weekend of the 1st/2nd October. AGM on the 1st with meal at pub afterwards Im thinking. It will be good to discuss the NEC show at the same time as it would be just over a month to go at that point

I wont lie, I had to google him, but I know who you mean. He was in fawlty towers and a few other things that ive seen

Happy birthday!

I was amazed at the amount of pictures! Over here, on ebay, when someone sells a car, we are lucky to get 3 pictures: one of which will have a thumb in it, another will be the photo of a screenshot of an advert from facebook marketplace and the last one will show the car from the other side of the street!

It was good seeing you again and your lesser-spotted zed. Hopefully you and it will become the common-spotted version!

It is a really good day out, loads to do and see. i was there from 08:30 to 3pm and only really looked around the show cars! Its a shame its not a two day show really as there is so much to do!

I would love to make that one day, it is quite far from me! Didnt they film an episode for top gear there? The one where Hammond rolled his Nova?

we are at 05:42

GoJapan is back! https://www.gojapan.co.uk/ This is an excellent show at brands hatch, with static shows and racing on the track. We had a superb spot last year over looking the track. This year should be just as good. I have registered the club, but am still waiting for the unique code. Tickets are £19 for the day, When I have the unique club code, you need to add your car to the club stand. Ill update this as soon as I hear back from the organisers

Last few!

More photos

Excellent day! Here are some photos!

Is R34 under the monorail again?

You need to buy your own tickets from the beaulieu website. They used to sell them in the gate, but not sure they do that now as it makes the queue slow. It's £13 per person in the car I believe. The display label is just for the Marshall's on the gate to direct us to our stand. It's not a ticket.

Sounds like a plan. I'll still get there for about 07:30 as there is plenty of porn to look at ....I mean cars! The gtr, 350z club, Subaru club and Toyota clubs all meet there now ?

The gates open to exhibitors at 08:30, the queues get crazy, so we always get there for as close to 08:30. Last year it took 45mins from the back of the queue to parking up. We left the Tesco's at 08:10. Meeting at 07:30 means we can meet, fill with fuel (if needed) and have a pee before joining the queue to get in. Also don't go via the back entrance, it's dusty gravel all the way across the estate, the front entrance is all tarmac. I'll be at Tesco about 07:30 and will leave at 08:10 with anyone that is there with me!

Hope you feel better soon!

PowerZed is the best place to have work done. Jim is very good. First step would be to have a chat with him. He is down in bristol just off the M4. As for engines, if you can source an engine, a straight swap with a good engine would be the easiest option. I might be selling my engine in the winter. Mine is a twin turbo automatic that I am planning on converting to a manual. So if I do go ahead with the swap, my engine, torque converter and autobox (all original with 50k miles on them) would be available.

Happy Birthday Aff!
