My first post & my first show with my recently purchased E21 yesterday at Gaydon. Fabulous day & met some really lovely people, including Sanjay, Cobler, Andy, Duracell & many, many more who's names escape me now!
I was overwhelmed by the positive comments about my car that I think a few people had seen before & new its history.
Great job by all the team at the club & a warm welcome from Richard Baxter who I know through the E Type Club.

Was good to meet you Kent & Sanjay and have a little chat. Kent's car does look like a nice one.
Missed seeing you Andy, maybe meet up another time.
Overall I think the show was better this year with a bit more variety of things to do. There was a much larger hard standing for the regional stands and better access to the general car clubs up the grassy bank (there used to be a river in the way).
There was also the drift arena with the option of passenger rides, which was positioned well, over the hill so the smoke and noise didn't affect the main show.
