Default Cumbria RS Show

Full house as usual it just keeps growing year by year, i don't think we could squeeze many more cars in the field which is a good thing even with some extra space opened up for visiting clubs.

Biggest variety cars i've seen for a local static show for a while

Mobile pics aren't the best as i haven't set the phone up correctly yet, i'm sure someone else might have better

Cosworth



















Oldskool


























Escort











Focus





My car of the day

It's fucking mental, their just isn't enough room now, it just grows year by year and they even opened a bit more at the bottom for visiting clubs, more trade stands this years which take up room.

Concours turn out was very good, didn't count the cars but looked to be about 20 of all age and model

Andy your right the caltex car is just a masterpiece no wonder it's in concours and not on a track

Cheers Andy, looked for your Escos but i guess you were in the Sapp???

Was a great day and the weather behaved it's self which helped.

The quality and variety of cars was stunning........love it.

PIG went on the hunt for you and your new motor but heard you'd already left.

Can't blame you if you were heading back down South, long weekend for you.

Best year so far (and I've been to all 5), but like people are saying if it keeps growing at the same rate Heaves Hotel is going to run out of space.

That's not a criticism just and observation - once again well done to all who put in the hard work .

Thanks for the great pics guys, love that orange Mk2 Escort.

Hopefully all of your comments will reassure all the people that are moaning about this years RS national day that you don't have to have a track to make a day a success.

Echo the comments about the Caltex Sierra, it's even better in the flesh, saw it at Santa Pod and it is stunning.

Was a mint weekend......170mile tour on Saturday was excellent, followed by todays static show. Weather was good which made all the difference.

Was some very nice cars there all weekend.

Good to catch up with the usuals.
