Cooling system is getting a good work out this morning! 

And I wish I’d stopped in a lay-by for a piss…

Anyone else heading out to this this today? 

Missing it, unfortunately - usually a cracking weekend with loads of mates but life intervened. Sold my ticket to a friend who will be there in his US-spec Cherokee on Mustang wheels that I also sold him. 

Enjoy!

Was a great day out, lots of wonderful and fascinating cars, some to my taste some not. But it was so eclectic there was something for everyone. Didn’t get to watch as much hill climb action as I would have liked as I had to leave early. Obviously one of the highlights was finding another TransSport!!

Unbelievable! 

Nice comparison between the pre- and post-facelift dustbusters. GM desperately tried to make them look more "conventional" so they just slapped the Bonneville's headlights on the front and painted the roof. Typical half-assed GM approach, hating it. It also shows how little GM cared for integrating EU-spec lighting on the back of their vehicles in the 90s, some of the outcomes were horrific and ruined much of the design. Could be worse on the Trans Sport at least.

Brilliant pics, thanks for posting, 

I didn't go this year and I really missed the camping fun and Kevs tat auction silliness.

Yup, an entire group of friends that it ached to miss. Some were at the Weekender, but not all.
