'unofficial' Shitefest Pics thread....

[320touring]

Excellent work Dave!

 

Saw the Cooncil Estate the night when I dropped off the 335i-may need to do a review on it at one point..

Despite being so late that the horse has died and become a Findus Crispy pancake, here's some extra Shitefest Cymru 2015 pics.

 

 

All ready to go

 

 

The Renault Trafic of much win

There were murmurings of starting this next but it turned out to be petrol rather than diesel. 

 

 

 

Shiters on the train, which appeared to be trimmed in Autoshite moquette.

 

 

FATE

 

 

 

Even the manufacturers couldn't work it out.

 

 

Watching Trigger's Cortina during the convoy was great. It was like being in the Sweeney or something. 

 

 

A tiny Volvo is born...

 

The SVM delegation in full Woolard

Look closely at the picture again, if you unlick your eyeball you'll see the twigs

Nice , nice

[Taff]

I think the Renault 16 is a cracking looking car.

cheers, I found one of them as someone mentioned where it was earlier - I thought it was somewhere North of Vyrnwy but no, between there and DB.

Right, here are the remainder of my photos that i didn't post the other night, sorry i missed your car or if they are just duplicates of the other photos on here.

Is that a burgundy Harold CompletEstate hiding in the weeds?

[Richard]

There was a pair of them, one of them with a Vitesse engine.

Slightly off topic but a few people asked what happened to my finger. It got trapped where the red arrow is here, so trapped that I had to crowbar the frame again to get it out. This is where McDonalds bags are made so if you get one with more red than usual you'll know why.

 

[bub2006]

Has anyone got some pics of the mountain pass thing we went from Llangollen to devil's Bridge? I can't upload any pics and don't know what it's called! Love to go back there and explore the area

[trigger]

I've trimmed down my GoPro video of the convoy, it's not very good though, it's probably quite boring and i apologize for my poor taste in music.

 

[beko1987]

Thats ace! Your taste in music is fine, I had Iron Maiden, Dream Theater and Pink floyd blaring on that drive!

[Station]

Polo going backwards down the hill at 6:55 is an apt visual description of how unplanned that halfway parking thing was!

Aberystwyth shore/coast thing:

Trying to find parking for 20 cars:

Citroen Xsara leaking water - improvised O-ring from rubber gloves. Lost bleed valve, which did one on the slopey car park, used valve cap off a bike.

Leaving car park - it was on a weird slant, everyone at strange angle:

Improvised o rings still on xsara, not leaking so it will stay like that!

Well that's fucked it...

What a load of wankers Youtube are, you can't even have the radio on anymore.

[beko1987]

Ha bunch of bastards!

[retrogeezer]

it's the Hirnant Pass Bub....and I'm going back sometime too!

[bub2006]

Thanks for that. I may have a wonder on my day off.

[bub2006]

Would also like to explore the further reaches of Scotland at some point too.

[Asimo]

yeh, what happened to the Insight?? It wasn't at the museum when I got there at 9.30ish

I Forgot my sleeping bag so I de-camped at midnight on Friday. Was going to whizz back to Devils Bridge on Saturday but got poisoned by a pastie I bought at a pretentious food shop in Ludlow. Arse. Literally.

 

Should have had a Ginsters.

Thanks,I'll read that later. Will look into tanant valley too. Must sort clutch issues before any road trips though.

Despite being in Cyprus, drowning in KEO (local fizzeh lager) and generally being a fat bastard with the all-inclusive, I would rather have been freezing my ballz off in Welshland.

 

The R16 looks an absolute honey, whereas the Alpine, is disgracefully GR9. 

Trigg's Cortina is peachy, and good to see Senor Dugong giving the Piazza an airing.

 

Too much good stuff, will have to do next year.....
