rob88h Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 What I love about FoTU: - my brother is on his way over to my house right now in his minty TR6, which will be intentionally left on the drive so we can go to the car show in a ropey old low spec diesel Sierra. mat_the_cat, Back_For_More, Dick Longbridge and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mat_the_cat Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 It's like I've woken up in the 80s! Not sure we're going to make Colsterworth in time before the gates open, but hopefully see folk at some point! (Assuming rainbow coloured puddles are kept to a minimum...)

grogee Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Lovely images so far, people. Keep them coming. Safe travels and may your alternator belts remain contiguous, and your coolant stay inside of the cooling system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though not much point as there's the predictable traffic. They really need a venue which isn't surrounded by little country roads. Second year of this.
