Great pictures, well done.

Thanks for that

It's funkyellowgibbon's car, better ask him.

Great couple of days - good company, good eatin' & drinkin'! Evora is absolutely stunning in the flesh. Sooo many pics. I'll try and knock up a gallery later, but here's a few to be going on with.

HOW many gears is Bibs able to select?

Bibs hammers a couple more gears into the SE:

The morning had a sort of Bank holiday feeling to it:

Ooooh:

Only 45 minutes till we get there:

So true:

These were fun to watch:

Anyone know who acquired the banner?

Evora. To do it justice you really need to see the hi-res pics - wonderful. Went a bit mad on these:

Absolutely gutted.....I am stuck offshore - wish I could have been there - oh well, only 40 years until the centenary!

[Kimbers]

Here's a few from me. Sorry about some being a little dark. Couldn't figure out how to get the flash working (I'm a technical wizard me!!). Seeing as how everyone else is posting engine/Evora factory pics I'll concentrate on the pictures of people and their cars

Firstly 2 from Saturday whilst hooning with Philippe and Walter from Belgium and France.

Thats Walter there (walter lotus)........

And thats Walters Engine. Minus Oil, Water, Crank, Pistons, Valves etc etc..... On the positive side erm....there isn't one actually. oh hang on we did get to watch everyone arriving for the event whilst we sat on the side of the road for 3 hours!

The gathering on Sunday Morning.......

My Baby.......hang on a sec!!!!! Whos that leaning on her? CLEMENTS!!!!!!!

Rob Cunningham (Robcun) and his fiance Pip....erm...having a ferkle in his trousers apparantly....

The convoy leaves Dunston....Moody shot here (or badly taken towards the sun, but I'm insisting it was moody)

HOON!!!! Taken expertly out of my drivers window whilst missing 4th gear

Cliff (gghc87) and Mrs Cliff realising we were doing the same thing!!

The queue at the factory. Was a actually quite fun talking to people and wandering about the road!

Mike Ring turned up in his Sport350 and blagged his way in. He brought with him one of MJK's old mates from his Jaguar days, Dick Soames, and they talked about old times and friends....

My picture of the fairground got spoiled by some hairy bloke taking pictures.......

I blagged Dave into the VIP tent where, whilst waiting for MJK, he sat next to Philippe Adams, the Ex Lotus F1 driver and F3 and F3000 Champion. He promptly took the opportunity to get an autograph or 2. Cracking Bloke Philippe. Really nice and genuine.

Roger Maklouf's (elanplustwo) Elan Shooting brake with slightly uglier and pasty twin brother

Thats my 15 for now!

[Sparky]

Either Kimbers has lost a LOT of weight, or that's the biggest bloody Esprit I've ever seen.

[Loose Cannon]

ooer, this one looks tasty. Whose was that then?

[Kimbers]

Smoking !!!!

LOL

Thats me and mat getting out to see where I left my clutch after "playing" in the queue. I now need some more tyres.....

[Laura]

I'm loving that synchronised bored look!

[gghc87]

In fairness Dave is doing his best to entertain whilst the rest of us are off kicking tyres and clicking shutters

[peter_england99]

Dave,

The golden rule of up-skirt shots is that the subject is wearing a skirt!

[Kimbers]

Couple more:

I do like those special Ed's:

So Mat, how many beers did you have last night? Yeah right pull the other one!!!

Hmmmm Yellow.......

2 old G cars with funny paint.........

My Boys fave colour scheme. You can tell they're mine! "Smile for dad" I said.......

[bigsi]
