Very nice to see my car in the last photo, BRG facelift Tourer 04EHY. Had a nice chat with Duotone and really liked the idea of replacing my cracked rear bumper with a Mk 1 one and fitting a MK 1 bottom of the tailgate. I reckon the chrome strip really sets it off. He tells me that facelift tourer rear bumpers are becoming very rare in BRG. It may be easier to find a donor car.

It was great wandering round seeing great examples of cars that I have owned over the years, from Morris Minors, Austin A40s, through Metros, Rover 400s, Rover 25s, before graduating to the Rover 75.

Nice to meet and chat to a few forum members that I have corresponded with over the last year - Spyder, MikeNoc, first-things-first and Acrtic. Apologies to Klarzy - I meant to come and say hello to a fellow Fen dweller, but every time I walked by his car, he was surrounded a large crowd of admirers. Hope to catch up soon.

My humble 'poverty spec' 75 classic did not attract too many photographers being at the back of the club stand, apart from one guy who took lots of close ups of the plastic wheel trim covers (whatever turns you on !). I attach a couple of photos I took - one with my car and a more general one of the club area.

Thanks to all the organisers - I hope to make it again next year

Cheers

Pete

First off hi Derek and Lilian, hope you had a safe journey home, we left just after you at 3 o,clock, just as well I have heard it took someone over an hour and a half, as we left cars were still trying to get in.
What a brilliant turnout our group had a stunning view of all the other cars being on top of the hill, I would like to say many thanks to all the organisers, and stewards who made the getting in easy.
We stayed at Premier South Rubery, met Thomas and his dad, Craig Spyder, nice car, Woof and Alan Jay, they were all nice cars a credit to everyone.
One gripe there were not enough toilets, stupid knowing the amount of people there, should have been more, and seperate ones for men and women, and you didn't want a **** cos! There was no toilet paper.
We came home today and stopped off at Banbury visiting a National Trust property.
It was also good to meet people who I only had contact through the forum.

Julien

Many, many thanks to all those who have posted some great photos to drool over. So sad was not able to go after registering to attend ages ago. It must have been a wonderful day with superb weather too. Perhaps next year. Sadly am not able to make the National in May either!

Great day on Saturday, even the weather played its part. So many cars to see and people to chat with.

This was my first POL and It was a good day with many interesting cars to see.
Had to queue to get in but that was because I left home too late as took a while to get my teenage son out of bed, haha. Wife and son were bored so I will go on my own next time.......
Parked my MG6 In our section but think I should have parked with the MG6's as no-one seemed interested. I did speak with some of our members as I was very interested in their cars and of course I am still looking to buy another ZT.
Was surprised that I only saw one ZT for sale.
Anyway thank you to the organisers, I know a lot of work goes into this sort of thing, well done.

Hi Mike.
Yes that plan was never going to work, two extremes as yours as 360,000 + on the clock and John's as 33,000 on the clock, as for engine being that clean if you start tomorrow it would be the same by next years POL and as we heard no difference in the sound of the car so salutes to you for keeping the engine in good order, I think you would really like the nano meets Mike if you could get to one right up your street good banter few beers and camp fire always tents you could stop in if you did not have one again great to meet you Arctic
