Haynes Breakfast Club (1/9)

[MPx]

Went along to this today as the theme was 60s/70s/80s.  Hoped there would be some good Lotus classics in attendance.  But no.  Still a good event, but not as well supported as expected.  There were 650 cars booked in overall and about 50 of us in the Paddock for the theme.  Capacity is 675 and it was nowhere near that so many no shows....and not many Lotus - just saw these

There was also an Emira that came late and went early...

All slightly disappointing to be honest but |I guess as rain was forecast the garage queens weren't allowed out.  Didn't rain until I was leaving at 10:30. 

Lionel was the only Lotus in the Paddock

Some great eye candy - Fezzas, Maccers, Lambos, Astons, etc.  A lovely Audi Quattro and Maserati in the paddock along with the first Nova I've seen this century!  But overall outnumbered by the modded BMW and Chav cars about 5 to 1.

Shame aboit the attendance, these events are often so much at the mercy of the weather.

I only live a few miles from there. Would have gone. I didn’t see anything about it in any of the local papers and mags.

Its first Sunday of every month Justin.  See here...

Most cars are just in the car park, but there's a monthly theme and you can get in that in the smaller paddock by asking by email.  Need a "ticket" either way which is £5.   Its been popular enough sometimes that they sell out so no longer just a "turn up" event.
