Festival of the Unexceptional on Saturday 14th July 2018


Six-cylinder

Recommended Posts

It's taken a lot of careful thought to pick just 10 from so many deserving candidates, but here's my Top Ten from the classic parking. Some pretty obscure stuff here and a couple of shiter-owned vehicles made the cut,

 

Some corrections. It was 4000km in the Mighty Dacia, and loads of cars have seats that can be made into a bed! Nissan Prairie, Mitsubishi Delica, I think Saab even claimed you could do so with the original 95.

 

As you say though, very hard to pick just ten. The metallic green Cavalier SR pressed my buttons rather hard. Brown dashboard with beige interior!

Waltzing in stylishly late to the party...

 

Here's my FoU report...

 

Owing to child/gf in tow who would want fuller facilities we opted not to camp at the FoD and after washing at a local jet wash we made outer way straight to Stowe

On arrival in the trusty Saab I spotted some AS types and was waved at by Ghosty and (I think) David Fowler....

 

Who I proceeded not to see again for the entire show! I R disappoint

The Saab didn't look out of place and people had a nice chat with me about it in the short time I was sat by it having a cuppa

Only spoke to a handful of Shiters. Goid to catch up with eifion, to meet Mat the cat (He's the one with the V8 stellar right....)

 

And owing to bored child we scampered off right after awards. So no FoD action for me...

 

But I dud grab this nice Saab shot on the way out...

There's probably a law against jet washing kids and even girlfriends might object.
