I was looking forward to it very much doubt I'll be going now. A bit pissed off is an understatement.

Looks as though my car won't be ready. Haven't used the fucking thing for the whole summer cos it's in having the bodywork done. When I dropped it off I was told it would be 100% done in 2 weeks. 8 weeks later and it still isn't anywhere near finished despite me asking for it to be ready for combe a few weeks ago and demanding it be done for ford fair!!!!

I know I could jump in with someone else but I really wanted to drive mine and to see everyone else driving theirs and seeing all the cars there will just piss me off so I'd rather not bother.

Wish I'd left the fucking thing tatty now. At least I could have had some fun in it!

Still undecided about going.Havent been in about 10 years (used to go when it was in witney). I have my mates engagement party the night before so it could get messy. The car isnt 100% bodywork wise either. But id like to have a look at the jumble bit as after a set of rubber window seals.

fair play

it is a good show, always been one of my favorites, it normally seems a bit more relaxed than National Day.

RS Toy, Wayne, you'll love it are you taking the family, i think they would enjoy it.
Kitchen Devil, Gary, that car could be done start to finish in a week so get down there & start throwing a few colourful words about, do a sicky or book a couple of days off then stay down there to egg them on or help them,,, nothing like having your car looking all 'bling' for a big show

Hello Matt!

I went down there for a few hours today to try and get it done and now it is 95% there. There's a couple of bits which I'm not 100% happy with but I will get them sorted after Ford Fair otherwise it definately won't be done!

Looks like I may make it after all!!

If anyone's got any spare track sessions please let me know... all being well (read as another day or two of fixing things), the XR2 will be making it's return outing for the first time in six years!
