Another great show, but I couldn't make it his year, so thank you for the video. It must have been a blast.

Very enjoyable as I was unable to attend the show. Especially liked the 75's as I have one of my own!

Well done Rob for focusing this video on the MG / Rover cars. Its the first to showcase them.
Chris Flannigan is a real wizard and that is no ordinary V8 engine, its a 32v SV engine. Nice chap and really knows his stuff. They also have an Aurora ZTT 180 se . Real enthusiast.
I was asked if i could display my Montego Turbo but it wasn't possible unfortunately.
The Moonstone 75 with aubergine would have been my choice very rare spec all round and Josh has done well rescuing and bringing this car back to life.
The arun white 75 s reg OVP is as you said an important car with quite a history.

10:29 Why thank you! Sorry to disapoint, but my 3 door is an absolute poverty spec 214S 8v on a single carb and 13" hub caps although becuase of the 3 door body shell is very frequently mistaken for a 216/220GTi by most! Excellent walkaround and thank you for uploading them. there is so much you can miss dispite being there for the whole 3 days!

Another great video Rob with just the right mix of cars. It was lovely to catch up with you. I was also pleasantly surprised to see a MK1 Focus especially as it was silver like the one I owned - a great car that handled well.

I knew it was you!!! You was walking past me at the exit but I didn't stop you because I wasnt 100% sure 😭

I did have a look for you around the MG's but it was after lunch so perhaps you had moved on by then.
I did have a nice chat with Alex though and a look at her Allegro.
The Clio Dimma is a wide body based on a FWD Clio, much the same as the R5 Dimma and probable best known Peugeot 205 Dimma.
Though not all that into BMW the Koenig is an interesting car as I remember some of the other high end vehicles they had in their portfolio in the 1980's. Both of the above I discuss on video.
I had a quick look at those SD1, especially the Vittessw in the end . I think it may have been a single Plenum though but I'd still gladly have one .

Chris’s car didn’t start as a 260. Chris did extensive engineering to make it a V8 even down to the little plates welded on the chassis legs the same as the original 260 has
