Just a handful from me. Mainly because everybody has posted pics of the cars I took pictures of and their pictures are better!

Always a pleasure to to 356A in the flesh, what a car and Rudge wheels make me go funny!

Car of the show for me - German RS. What a colour combo. Following from the discussion regarding RS interiors the other day this one had a brown interior.

This was a 20 year old resto from Roger Bray with the original engine in it that had never been rebuilt, only serviced!

Have you ever seen a bunch of grown men get so excited over cake? We may be fanatical about Porsches but we do love our food! Ferryman excelled himself with his cullinary skills :wink:

Very much enjoyed the day.
Fred had asked me if I would like to park my 914 in front of the fort.
Was joined by three German registered 911's.
These guy's took a lot of interest in my "Volks-Porsche"
At the time didn't know who they were; later on was told they had a lot to do with "Porsche, Future Classics,993, Boxster"
The car received a "Star Trophy" total surprised and a great honour.
Thanks to "nrc914" for tracking me down, so I could receive the award from Alexander Klein, Porsche AG, Clubs Coordinator.
Enjoyed the day so much, found I was still there after most of the cars had gone home!

Here are a few of my photos.

Big Thanks from the Organisers to all DDk ers for your support of our event. It was great to see so many of you there and sorry we could not meet up with everyone, but we were on Gate duty most of the day. So many great cars there, some unique like Grant Larsen's, Porsche AG designers mint green RS in front of keep, black Speedster with rudge knock off's (356A),Kevs 914, which deserved, without a doubt the the 914 award and not forgetting Johns Heah's carrera engined roadster. Well done once again and hope to see you all next year.

Will post some photos from our photographer this evening.

just wanted to say what a great day it was, as people know I haven't been around much as I don't have a car to enjoy at the moment :roll: but the temptation of the Martini exhibits was to much!
Having said that, meeting loads of old friends was actually much more fun and reminds me what a wonderful bunch the DDK'ers are, great to see everyone on such a fantastic day.
cheers, Mike.

What a great day again!

Thanks to Simon and the team for organising this. It must be one of THE early Porsche events in the international calendar by now and I think it will start attracting a fair few europeans.

Spent most of my day catching up with people and had hardly any time to look round the cars and take photos!

great Pictures here. thanks for sharing. like Hendrick we spent so much time chatting to people and letting people(especially the kids) sit in the car to have their pictures taken that we didn't get the chance to look around all the wonderful cars there, take any photos or even sit down to eat our (wonderful hamper) lunch... the day just flew by.

only dissapointment for us was that we manage to totally miss the speeches and award ceremony :cry:
