I'm in Northampton and there is usually pretty big classic ford meets in MK, only through the summer months though IIRC. Took the RST down once and didnt even get that much flak.

Obviously when a magazine was there taking pictures some purists got a bit sh*tty saying "why is that 80's piece of plastic tat allowed in the photoshoot" but other than the odd nobber they were a cracking bunch and generally showed interest.

I'm pretty sure the MKRSowners club organise a fair few meets as well.
