Yep a good day.

Not the biggest show in the world but I managed to get my engine mounts for £3 each and a spare laser alloy wheel....

The Mk stand looked nice as did the quality of the car

I went up today as well - it's never been a big manufacturer show, but there have always been a lot of finished cars.
I gave up early as it was just too hot for me - my car registered 35C when I got back to it! Very humid as well. Phew!
Still, I managed to save the cost of my petrol on cheap parts I needed...

chrs,
David

I saw Hicost James and his mates as they were leaving. I didn't look for the locost spot before that as I couldn't wait to get out of the car. I just dumped it in the first empty space and left it to cool down.
