I thought I'd better start a new thread so that all of this year's pictures end up in one place (for a change)...

You know when you think you've seen everything about Elans... suddenly something comes along and really bites your arse!
This just made my day!
Enjoy...

I honestly don't know how I'll follow this, but more pictures to come later (off for a pint now).

OK, very quickly, a grotty shot of the stall (sorry) and one of my favourite car at the show - the Lotus Evora Enduro... simply sex on wheels.

... and a bit of self indulgence.
Looking forward to seeing other peoples' photos too...

The highlight for me was the Elan trailer that dispensed ice cold German beer :cheers: and it tasted very good!! :bowdown:
Hopefully we will see some more post from Albert as he's done some really cool things to his Elan and he's a really nice guy

That trailer has got to be the most photographed "car" at the show! And having seen it, I was chatting to one guy who is now thinking of changing his Elise+daily for an M100+trailer, so it could start a trend!

But how many caught Geoff and Pinky in full control?

Stand looked fine

But my show favourite was one of our older brethren - the +2 Estralle custom built by Mattys.

Great fun...

As usual, I was snap-happy and took over 300 pics during the weekend! Have clumped the best ones into this video:

Also i was very pleased with the good relationship (is this the right word?) at the camping.
We had a lot of fun and would be happy to see you again.
