Hi, All

I am going to get there very bright and early on Friday, so if you are around on the day please send a pm with your mobile number and I'll buy you a cup of tea etc and catch up for a chat

For those looking out for my car it's the 3200 still with Le Mans decals

Cheers

dem maser · Jul 1, 2011

Oh i know matt, dont think its sunk in.....

I ended up going yesterday so if anyone needs a single ticket for Friday, Sat or Sunday I have spare ones - I'm staying at the Ramada Jarvis in Brighton so you'll need to collect them between lunctime today and tmrw if anyone is desperate!

I think I will go Chalmondley Pageant Of Power (July 8-9-10) instead. It's usually a very good show. If you are up North and have never been, do yourself a favour, and go. It's a bit like the FOS but more civilised!

Thanks Paul....for giving me your ticket so I can go have a nose at this Alfa 4C

Amazing looking car.
The matt paint finish looks stunning as well.

Hi Matt,

Just back myself,

Really enjoyed the event, never been before and there were some great cars on show and also racing.

Then......when just getting back to my manor there I was in the queue coming off the motorway when behind with decals on the sides of their cars were a F40, Ferrari 599, Ferrari California 2+2 and the a white Ferrari possibly 308 (looked bigger from behind). And for the next half hour we had a little convoy driving under the speed limit you understand around the Ascot area - quite delightful...................Yes, we did put our foots down a good few times.

So great day all round

The 4c looks stunning, gutted i couldnt be there but looks like a dep on it was a good thing.....

Andyk · Jul 1, 2011

If you think it looks stunning in the pics (apart from the blurred interior shot that I attached by accident) you should see it in the flesh. I spent a good 15 minutes in the same spot just watching it go round!

Hi All,

Just a little up date on my previous post above.

I have only now read the programme from todays event and it appears that I was in convoy with a couple of the DJ/presenter Chris Evans cars, which had been at Goodwood too. The 599 was to clarify a 661BHP v12 2010 GTO and the white Fez was a 288GTO.

I have a couple of photo's and will try to post......mixing it with the stars of TV etc oooh what a day, plus I said hello to Murray Walker who was doing a book signing...

The 4C looks ugly, not sure about the styling, although, that matte red is awful.
