Most important of all, is that you drive on the right side of the road. That means you must have your ‘bum’ in the gutter. And you may want to adjust your passenger side mirror to give it a more wider angle than normal. We don’t want anyone pulling out to overtake, and pulling into the path of someone going past at 100 mph plus. All learnt from experience believe me.

Exactly the reason the lovely Debbie will be occupying the passenger seat to scream loudly at such a moment especially as it will be her who gets to greet the oncoming driver first

Hello Girls and Boys

Just a thought..
It may be nice if we can give some details of our vehicles to display on our cars for the Boxtel show.
If those going on the Netherlands trip would like to PM me with a (brief) one A4 page description of their car and history/ interesting mods I'd be happy to print and laminate it for you.
Maybe start with your christian name (NOT your forum name as this will mean nothing to most people at the show.) then make model etc,etc.
Cheers Ian
