Really need to say a huge thank you to the many 100s that attended last nights event to support Passionford let alone all those that exibited their cars, your support made the night one to remember and its a long time since the Cafe has seen such a stunning selection of the country's best Fords.

Also I need to mention some of the mind boggling mileage's some put in to support this event, Brendan coming over from the Isle of Man and the Sinbad and the troops from the RSOC all the way from Notts & derbyshire as well as the car load up form cornwall, you guys make organising a event like this worth the headache's

I will upload my pictures later today of the cars

The judges for Best car of the night arrived late by which time some had already left as its a long night after all but I can confirm, winner of best car of the night was

FORDRALLYCAR

BRENDAN

Like I said to you last night Steve, sadly we live in an electrical world which is making folk lazy nothing beats getting off your backside and going out to mix with like minded individuals.

London crew always make us welcome, Thank you

Cool Update !

The local press have done us proud with a full page promoting Passionford in the newspaper today only downside is they got my mugshot in there and mentioned stalls what stalls , so if you live in the Brent or Harrow area look out for today's Observer newspaper

Again well done to the massive numbers of Passionford Attendee's

well done Steve, I was there with the missus we turned up in both our focus rs mk2's, one white the other blue (and two other Oxford RSOC members - RS2000 and fiesta rs) and parked on the pavement opposite. It was a great night and well worth the journey, we even got a few pics of ours on this forum . Will definately try and get a space(s) in the ace cafe car park next time !
