So some TR7's venturing into Vauxhall country
Fantastic. See you there!

[john 215]

Hi,
Looking at the news may not be Vauxhall country by then [:(] not looking good [:(] looks like the lads and lasses at IBC van plant ( they make the Vauxhall / Opel van ), including my brother are about to be shafted by the Germans [:(!]
Having said that, BL had a tool and die factory in Luton Road and the Coke cars were converted at Star Vans in the town i believe, so some history connected with the TR7, not to mention the 3 BL dealerships in the town 'back in the day'!!

Hi,
Go every couple of years or so, last couple of years weather been very poor. Good allround show, not a huge auto jumble but there are stalls normaly selling cake for Zoe [;)] Line up in classes but normaly fairly informal. Free admission for our cars up to i think the 5th of June, after that normal admission. Worth an email to organisers as time is moving on and send a S.A.E for your pass. Organising club very friendly people and helpful.
Also Mossman collection at the same venue, restored horse carriges ect if that floats your boat, with a cafe selling cake [:p]
Cheers John
