I don't remember any rain either. Super hot. This is the one organised by Brian?

Unfortunately not, was owned by a mate in Malton, more recently Thornton Le Dale, so you may have seen it around. He sold it a few months ago as he is restoring a 56 Split Firebus.

Not as exciting as Alpine tours or mass convoys to Le Mans, but I enjoyed it. First trip in 914 to Bad Camberg VW Treffen and European Bug-In at Chimay.

Original 2004 DDK trip to Classic LeMans . Think there’s only me and possibly NickMoss still on Ddk these days ( although Charlotte was at the recent Ddk swapmeet so still about 8) ) . Car wise, the blue 2.4e at the front is now owned and fully restored by ‘bigfoot’ , not sure where the other cars are ?

VOD was an extremely nice low mileage 911. One of the best original cars I’ve ever seen in the UK.

Previously owned by Richard Corey-Smith (along with a stunning extremely low mileage 914/6 - plus other assorted Porsches).

Although very low mileage, I think Richard (sympathetically) restored the 911T's mechanicals) ...

A stunning car.

Phil Johnson had it for many years. Phil is local to me and used to often come to CLM etc.

He sold it a while back and is now into bikes in a big way
