Strange, I saw one on the trailer for the programme - it even had a Union Jack on the front.
Probably got lost on that stupid dog-bone shaped roundabout!

Striking fear into the hearts of duplicate posts everywhere...!

I've got video of the convoy, it's mainly Corsa, white vans and cyclists. I think I spotted an Elan in it somewhere. Once editted for the best bits I'll post a link - should only last around 4secs!
Could the 'Hokey-Cokey' actually be what it's all about?

Still, we ended up with 50 or so Elans in OUR tent. Other Lotus owners were still whingeing on Sunday p.m.

The convoy was more of a cock up than normal. I had a Ginsters pie van in front of me

Next year we need to find somewhere that's not a retail park with lots of mini roundabouts and early morning, grey haired Morrisons shoppers.
That business park a bit further on might be a better idea if the venue is still Malvern ?
The convoy run in from the campsite went a bit better but there's only on f in Geof Smith still got lost. Ha ha - get those eyes tested Smiffy

There's some nice country roads from Upton to the Showground - if there's a big enough car park there that might be a good place to start the convoy.

Still a good show from the M100's though

Upton-on-Severn would indeed be a good run in Jim. we might even be able to keep the Ginsters pie van out of the convoy !

Mere coincidence or carefully executed plan you curly haired porker.

I was going the twisty scenic route you daft bugger. Anyway, (even with your glasses on) why did you follow me?
