After an absence of 3 years, the Pageant was back and the sun was shining, so off I went to join a stand with the SKCC club:
It's a great show this; cars from every era and all types:
Some sort of Jeep-based thing...
Alpine Sunbeam. If I ever sell Zedster, this may be my next purchase.
Renault Gordini - strangely butch but you should have seen the panel gaps!
Visible from space...
I never knew they did Capri convertibles...good looking...
This 1984 Escort was totally original and by that I mean a total wreck. But I remember a chaotic drive from Manchester to London with my family in a hired one of these. At the time, it was luxury to us!
My 2nd ever car - Golf GTi Mk2, the first car I had driven that could actually accelerate uphill!
When is an Alra Romeo Montreal not worth photographing?
Lots of stalls including a very nice doughnut place. And I met someone famous:
Not quite sure what he was doing there (they were filming) but a nice guy. I didn't have the heart to tell him I don't actually like his presenting style but hey, a brush with fame...and I was happy as well (boom, boom).
While there, Matt suggested my overflowing coolant may be a failed pressure cap on the header tank, so I've ordered a new cap (I think it is the right one) and for £7, worth a shot.
All in, a great day out...
